I am charging my phone overnight in my room. The notification for emails, depending on the frequency, can be annoying. So last night I thought I'd try using the option in the pulldown menu to turn off mobile data. It gives a nice little warning that I will not be able to use the internet, email, etc. Perfect! That's what I want. However, my email was going off all night! When I got out of bed, all my emails were right there - even though mobile data was off.

Is this because I had wifi on? What is the easiest way (app?) to turn off certain notifications (I'd still like to receive texts and phone calls)?

 

@lion2 - Yes, I know I can modify each app individually, but that defeats the part where I say "easiest". If I need to go into each app at night to disable and then in the morning to re-enable, that's not very easy. By the notification presented when turning off mobile data, this sounds like it should be the solution, but it didn't work.

 

OK, that's what I thought. Do you know of an app that can accomplish this with one touch? Two touches is one too many.

 

@lion2 - hitting the mute button, is this the sound button? Will that turn off the ringer too and text messages?
- notification volume -- Is there where you adjust the volume, hit the volume and then settings? One has phone, I'm guessing the other is system sounds(?) and the last is notifications. Is that right?
- Exactly! Do you know of an app?

 

@Hightech - I'll look into those, thanks!

 

@treb1797 - thanks for the suggestion. That takes care of wifi, but I'd still need to turn off data, right?

 

@lion2 - that looks promising. Thanks!
