"Do not disturb" is a joke.

I turned on "do not disturb" tonight because a friend is annoying me. Well they just blocked their number and sure enough the iPhone rang and vibrated with "blocked call" even though it is set it to "not disturb" Usual Apple crap. Useless feature.

That's interesting. I don't seem to have that problem.

I always thought do not disturb was dumb. I haven't touched it, nor so I need to.

Whenever I get a call I'm like:

Do not disturb only applies if the phone is locked. Was it?

If you were using your phone, it's going to come through.

Lock the phone, put it down, and you won't be bothered.

Like others have said, as long as your phone is locked, the call will get blocked. If you're still gonna complain, go get another device if this one isn't doing what you need. That's why options exist.

OP you should check your settings to see if they are where you want them to be.

Just make a silent ringtone, and set people to it when you want to.

Well the Williams sisters Ad was cool. I hope the fee was worth it.
