Q: Does the "do not disturbe" function turn off by itself each morning?

I have turned on the "do not disturbe" function on my iPhone 4 running ios 6.0.  The next day, the feature turns itself off.  Is this normal?  Is there a way to keep the feature turned on until I turn it off?

    It sounds like you might have the scheduled feature set. A very handy feature, but only when you want it on! Go to Settings>Notifications>Do Not Disturb. From there you can turn schedule on and set what time you want Dot Not Disturb to activate and deactivate. If you don't want it to engage automatically, just turn the schedule off and it should only turn off when you manually do so. Hope that helps!

    Click (or Face):

     

    Thanks for the response.  I have the Schedule turned on (from 10:00PM to 7:00AM).  It works fine for one night.  The next day I will notice that the Do Not Disturbe feature is now turned off.

     

    What I want is for the Do Not Disturbe feature to be turned on every night (between 10:00 and 7:00) without me having to turn it on every day.

     

    Can this be done?  Or do I have to turn it on (through Settings) every day?

     

    Thanks again.
