How to set up Do Not Disturb mode on your iPhone

To set up Do Not Disturb Mode on your iPhone go to the Settings section of your terminal. Next, click on the Do Not Disturb section. Once inside, you will come across different options to configure this mode depending on the moment.

That if a contact calls you again in less than three minutes, the call will not be silenced, even though you have it blocked in Allow call. This is very useful if you are expecting important calls that cannot wait.
