Mute most calls but not all?

gloriousnumber1 · Jul 25, 2018

Is it possible to set up my S9+ to be on mute or silent when I'm in bed BUT allow certain contacts to call me with a ring tone?

I don't want to just choose different ringtones and make it different that way. I just want a 'silence all calls except for these contacts' option.

Do I need an additional app? I want to do this a I can let a few people reach me in case of emergency but everyone else will be on silent.

Apologies if I this has been asked before. I'm not sure how to search for this specific thing and what to look for.

Thanks!

I meant 'so I can'. I don't know how to edit in the app.

Don't your Do Not Disturb settings let you specify that only certain contacts can call you when in DND mode?

I'll have to check, I've never used that mode before even with my 8 years of Android phones haha

Thanks , it gives me that option! However, is there a way to make a short cut to the do not disturb function somewhere up by my quick settings?
