Q: Do not disturb
Can anyone tell me what is the point of this service, and why does it keep changing the setting? I have changed it back to receiving calls from everyone about ten times since installing ios 7, is anyone else experiencing this?
iPhone 5s, iOS 7.0.3

Hey davidawatt,
Great question. Do Not Disturb keeps calls, alerts, and other notifications from making sounds or lighting up when iPhone is locked. If you are experiencing Do Not Disturb automatically activating, you may want to make sure it is not set to a schedule:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5463
- Manual: When enabled, calls and alerts received while the device is locked will be silenced.*
- Scheduled: Automatically enable Do Not Disturb between the hours you specify.
- Allow Calls From: Allow calls from everyone, no one, your favorites, or specific contact groups stored on your device or your iCloud account.
- Repeated Calls: If someone calls you twice within three minutes, the call will not be silenced.
- Silence: Choose to silence calls and notifications always or only when the device is locked.*
* These settings are available only in iOS 7.
