Pushing notifications through silent mode [SOLVED]

Hi everyone,

Before I get started, I suppose I should mention I use a Huawei Honor 8, and the preinstalled software is very different from that of your typical Samsung or LG.

I've got someone in my life right now that I need to be there for at any time, including when I'm normally asleep. I hate turning on my notification sounds completely, though, because then I wake up to useless stuff like game notifications. Is there a way to push one contact's calls through the silent/vibrate mode so that only calls from that person actually play the ringtone? I have developer options if I need them.

Thanks!

There should be a do not disturb setting. You can set it to only play sound for favorites.
