Turn off Email at night on iphone

nws996 hit it right on the head... we need to be able to silence ONE mail account separately from the other mail accounts. Android has this feature. Some of us have work & personal mail boxes. When we're off the clock, we don't want to be bombarded by work emails, but we still want to get our personal emails and phone calls, so DND is not an option. Sure, you can always change the ringtone/notification alert for just that mailbox, but that's too many steps every day. It's a crying shame that this post IS 6 years old and STILL no improvement. At the VERY LEAST apple could allow programs like IFTTT to make these changes for you. You could create a button widget that does all of this for you with a single click.... but no.... apple won't let ANY app access to the phone settings, which is enormously frustrating, esp for us old Android users that are used to having FULL functionality of IFTTT.
And the reason we post to user forums instead of just going directly to Apple is; 1. Most of the time, there is a work around and other users can help you learn. 2. Who ever posted to Apple directly and got positive outcome?? anyone?

Yeah but the problem with that is it silences everything except calls from the groups you set... Messages / social media etc you´re interested in outside of office hours... Apple needs a separate do not disturb setting for certain email accounts...

Hi delapa,

you have to options. you can go into your settings select notifications, scroll to mail icon and turn off all sounds, banners, alerts, and badges when you go to bed at night (remember to turn back on). Or select Do Not Disturb (remember to turn off), choose Manual to turn on and that will disable calls and alerts to be silenced, then choose if you want calls to be allowed from certain groups like All Contacts, Family, Favorites, or from Everyone.

applefab,

I think that you're missing something.

The basic feature is Do Not Disturb. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb and turn it on for whatever hours are desired. This feature has been present for a long time.

The OP was asking about a separate "do not disturb" feature for email.

However I read the indication work. And am partly assuming this to concern work emails only - and work calls- and work text ... not personal

And I´m not asking for anyone on this forum to do anything, I´m replying to someone who, like you, gives mistaken advice - maybe I should also have qualified my response with "tell apple" so they get more suggestions...

The real problem is that this thread has risen from the grave after more than 6 years.

Yes becaise there´s still not a fix...

It is NOT a problem any more. Use Do Not Disturb.

You didn´t read my post then....
