Schedule the shutdown of mobile notifications during the night
Table of contents:
We want the mobile to do everything for us. That it wakes us up, that it keeps us informed and that it turns off completely when we go to sleep. Well, better totally not, there may be important calls to attend to. And the calls that are made at night usually matter all. So we are going to offer you two ways to schedule the shutdown of mobile notifications at night. Very simple and intuitive. Let's go there.
With pure Android
From Android 5.0 Lollipop, mobile phones that had this operating system without a customization layer could adjust the notification hours. Thus, you could go to bed, knowing that only the calls and the alarm would ring. We teach you how to adjust this section directly from your phone, without the need for third-party applications.
In the settings section, look for the 'Do Not Disturb'option. Enter this screen and you will see something similar to this. It may vary depending on the Android model you have.
In the 'General' section you must deactivate the 'Do not disturb' switch to be able to apply an automatic rule. What does this mean? That you can program what time you want the phone to remain without notifications but the alarm and calls continue to ring.
In the following screenshot we can see how we have adjusted the silence of notifications so that begins at 10 pm and ends at 7 am.We have also decided that it should only be turned off from Monday to Thursday. Because then you'll want to find out when your friends make weekend plans in WhatsApp groups.
If by fate you do not have a mobile phone with pure Android, it is also possible to schedule notifications, but you will have to use some application from the Play Store of Android We are going to present you one that is highly valued by users and that, in addition, is free.
SEER, schedule notifications in a very simple way
Once you download and install the SEER app, open it. The home screen is very simple, practical and intuitive. First, the app will ask you to give certain permissions that are essential for the app to work properly.
On the one hand, you have the call volume configuration bar. When SEER is active, calls will still come to you. But, if you ever get one, it will be in the wee hours of the morning, you don't have to be woken up with a jump either. Adjust the volume of the incoming call with that bar It would have been great to have a preview of the volume level, but less is nothing.
Then, adjust the notification time on weekdays and weekends in the schedule. This application, however, only has of two automatic rules: weekdays and weekends, but it will be enough for most users.
In the settings menu you can automatically mute the device while charging it. This is very useful, since we usually charge the mobile while we're in bed.This way you save yourself from scheduling the silence of notifications: plug in and silence. Unplug and volume up. Also, you can hide the notification icon that appears on the status bar. Finally, you have a tutorial in case there is something that is still not completely clear to you.
