Do Not Disturb... Reject calls instead of Silent !?!?!

This has to be one of the most deceiving property of the Do not Disturb feature. The feature does not let the phone call ring in the background, it abruptly cuts the call on the first ring. This leads to people thinking that I am actively rejecting their calls, which is NOT the case.

Very disappointed with how this feature works.

My carrier has entered into an arrangement with apple.

Assuming that AT&T in US also does these "arrangements" you talk off, I don't see a line anywhere that says Do not Disturb is a "supported" feature.

As per https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204321, With Do Not Disturb, you can silence calls, alerts, and notifications that you get while your device is locked.

Once again, Do Not Disturb should just SILENCE the calls, Not Reject the calls as it is doing now. - Thats Why it is a BUG

There's no case to prove. Either your carrier has entered into an arrangement with Apple or they haven't.

See here:

Wireless carrier support and features for iPhone in Asia-Pacific - Apple Support

Don't worry abot the title. You can link to all part sof the world from there.

It requires proper carrier support. I'd bet you're not using a supported carrier.

Then talk to your carrier. It works exactly as advertised if you're using a supported carrier.

What do mean by a "supported carrier" ? Could you give me some supporting documents from apple that I can give to my carrier to prove my case ?

I recently moved from the Android operating system to the iOS ecosystem. The equivalent feature on Android works perfectly as advertised on the same carrier. This makes me cautious in continuing my adoption of the Apple ecosystem.

Hi Guys,

It's not a bug. It has to do with the way your carrier supports the iPhone.

yes, it rejects them (busy tone), that's why i don't use it. it makes the caller think that i'm on the phone at 6 in the morning if he calls.

it's a word game, you won't hears calls so they are silenced...in your point of view. it's stupid, i know.

Are you specifying which callers (Favourites) you do not want to be silenced?

why not use the small button on the left of your Iphone?
