You're right, of course, but one can always try!

This is a user-to-user forum; Apple does not participate, so this is not the place to try; it's just a waste of your time. The place to try is https://apple.com/feedback.

I'm well aware that this is a user-to-user-forum! But I don't quite understand your response to me…at the beginning of this thread I suggested that the OP send Apple feedback about the DND notification, and gave him the correct link (which you have just repeated in your reply to me!).

Philly_Phan then replied to me “Not likely to have success." By replying “You're right, of course, but one can always try!” I meant that one should still send Apple feedback, as it´s one useful way for Apple to find out how users are getting on with their products.

If your post is removed you will receive an email saying why.

If you respond to a post, and that post is removed, yours will disappear also as "collateral damage". In this case you will not be notified.

Both my initial posts were removed or not posted, but o didn’t receive a mail to say why, and the posts I replied to are still there, so not sure how that works.

Is there anyway to remove my account from the forum?

Most likely they were in response to a post that was removed.

you can’t remove your account, but you can stop posting. And, if you don’t want to receive any more notifications click the “Following” button at the top of this page.

Many people on here were directed from a Google search, they do care what people think about this, and I’m confident will find the tone of your remarks to be rude. You are also incorrect. If you think one of the very biggest retail companies in the world does not monitor this goldmine of free customer feedback hosted here on their very own website, keep sipping the kool aid, innocent soul. No doubt their competitors monitor it, too. Data is gold. Gold is mined.

I use iOS for work too, and the lock screen on my corporate iPad is very important for access to a conversion document I need infrequently but, when I do, I need it immediately. I used two quick clicks of the lock button to make it appear from anywhere in my workflow, no matter what I am doing. No more, with this forced dummy-proofing notification. It blocks some of the conversions, forcing me to futz around swiping and clearing, while flying an aircraft. This was the only way to get access to a time-critical document at any moment in less than a second. Back to paper. My employer buys tens of thousands of iPads for us all to use. Maybe with enough feedback, we can switch to a more configurable device. For now, this is what we are stuck with.

I send the feedback to Apple too, like a lot of people, but these forums are the place where most people are directed when they search for solutions, and sometimes find out that there are none. The more angry comments, the more likely these tirades show up in Google search results, the bigger the snowball, the more direct feedback gets sent, the more likely we see a quick improvement for those of us negatively affected. Keep posting, people! And keep submitting feedback too! Ignore the angry man!

Why don't you simply ignore it?

Apparently the iPhone is not the device for you. Cheers!

I agree that there should be a way to turn it off.

Why?

It really is quite annoying. I can’t believe there isn’t even an option in the settings to toggle on/off.

Why not?

That’s your problem. One ID equals one person. Separate the IDs and use family sharing.

This forum is trash, I have commented twice in this thread, and neither of my replies have appeared, or they have been deleted.

My guess is that you've violated the Terms of Use.
