You can definitely put one person on Do Not Disturb in the Messages app on your iPhone. This feature allows you to silence notifications and alerts from specific contacts or conversation threads, ensuring that you are not disturbed by their messages.
To set Do Not Disturb for a specific contact, follow these steps:
1. Open the Messages app on your iPhone.
2. Locate and tap on the conversation thread for the contact you want to set Do Not Disturb for.
3. In the top right corner of the screen, you will see a blue circle with an “i” inside it. Tap on this icon to access the contact details.
Here is a personal experience that I can share with you. I often use the Do Not Disturb feature on my iPhone when I want to focus or have some uninterrupted time. There have been instances where I needed to silence notifications from certain contacts, such as colleagues or friends who tend to message frequently. By putting these contacts on Do Not Disturb, I can avoid getting distracted by their messages during important tasks or when I simply want some peace and quiet.
4. Once you tap on the blue circle with the “i,” you will see various options for the contact. Look for the option called “Hide Alerts” and tap on it.
5. A slider will appear next to “Hide Alerts.” Move the slider to the right to enable Do Not Disturb for this contact. When the slider is enabled, it will turn green.
6. After enabling Do Not Disturb for the contact, tap on “Done” in the top right corner to save the changes.
By setting Do Not Disturb for a specific contact, you will no longer receive notifications or alerts for messages from that contact. However, please note that the messages will still be delivered to your device, and you can view them whenever you access the conversation thread. The only difference is that you won’t be interrupted by notifications for that particular contact.
