    I have iPhone 5 running iOS 6.

    When I set "Do not disturb" on, I tought it was suposed to stop sound and vibration when someone called me. For some reason, when a friend of mine calls, the phone starts ringing.

    I read somehting about "do not disturb" not blocking favorites and if a person calls 2 times in 3 minutes. Is this true for iOS 6? If yes, how do I disable this? morevoer, this friend of mine is not listed as favorite and I believe the phone is ringing on the first call anyways.

    I had to resort to Arplane mode On now when Im in a meeting or a movie...

    It is working as intended. Uncheck the "repeated calls" option.

    You could also just flip the switch and put it on vibrate.

    I dont have such option, Im running iOS 6. This photo is from iOS 7. Is this obligatory in iOS 6?


    The vibration itself makes a big noise and the feeling disctracts me. I want complete peace. How do I change settings for do not disturb in iOS 6?

    Put your phone in airplane mode then.

    I just found out how to properlly set Do Not Disturb, you have to go into "Notifications" and then you have some extra options. Problem solved, thanks everyone.

    I put mine into Do Not Disturb for a time frame. If the person calls the 6th time the phone will ring overriding the settings.


    Check your settings. It might be best to set a time frame.
