Driving Focus Issue

[papbot]

I have certain people and apps enabled in the different Focus settings. In all but the Driving Focus, there is the ability to enable people and apps. I noticed this recently as I was not getting any audible or visual notification from a certain app while driving. I have that Focus set to automatically begin. If my wife, the only person I have enabled to breakthrough, texts or calls me, those audible and visual alerts trigger. But one of the apps that I had previously enabled to sound off does not. If I wake my phone screen, I see the app’s notification but no sound accompanied it, and it did not wake the screen as such notifications should. When driving, all such notifications get pushed to my Apple Watch, so I thought maybe the problem is my watch; but my wife gets the same app to sound off when she’s driving alone or in the car with me. She does not have Driving Focus set to automatically begin, so I’m assuming that’s why it comes through on hers since no focus is in effect at those times for her. But, checking Settings and Focus under Driving, there is only a people option to enable; there is no option for apps. Every other focus has both people and apps available to set. Has this changed recently, or has the ability to enable an app in the Driving focus always been missing?

Always been the same IIRC. I want to be able to add certain apps too.

Thanks. It puzzles me because until recently that specific app had usually come through. But maybe on those occasions the Driving focus wasn't truly active and I just didn’t know it.
