Using Do Not Disturb

Innway Support > Innway app > Using Do Not Disturb

Like all Bluetooth devices, your Innway’s connection can be reduced or blocked due to the environment and where it is placed. This might result in a false alarm, making your Innway and phone ring. There are certain times when you don’t want these false positives to disturb you. For example, the baby’s having a nap or you are in an important meeting.

The Innway app has a Do Not Disturb mode that suppresses separation alerts. You can still ring your phone or Innway when Do Not Disturb is enabled. The app is able to recognize trusted safe areas and situation where it does not need to ring the alarm, such as when you are at home or office where you know you won’t misplace your items.

There are four ways to enable Do Not Disturb mode.

  1. Global Do Not Disturb
  2. Quiet Hours
  3. Trusted Zones
  4. Trusted Wi-Fi networks
