MIUI 9 was introduced on July 26, and today many Xiaomi continue to receive beta versions of this wonderful firmware. The proprietary operating system has received many improvements, including countless bug fixes. The developers are really trying their best to ensure that we ultimately receive a high-quality and stable update. But Xiaomi programmers are focused not only on optimization and error correction. Many new features await us in MIUI 9: the ability to run two applications on one screen, intelligent allocation of processor resources, improved power saving modes, a very fast user interface, instant response to notifications, new animations, and so on.
Today we will tell you about the updated silent mode.
So, previously we could turn on silent mode or “Do not disturb” mode only from the switches, lowering the notification shade, or by long pressing the volume down key. We couldn't set the timer to turn off silent mode or Do Not Disturb mode; we had to go into settings each time.
But now everything has changed. Just press the volume key once, after which you can control all sounds on your device through a convenient drop-down menu. Here it is also possible to activate the “Do not disturb” or silent modes, having previously specified the time for which the latter are turned on.
As for the time for which the listed modes are turned on, there are 5 options available for selection: Always (that is, until you turn it off yourself), 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours and 8 hours. The last option is very convenient to choose before bed, although some night owls will choose a different option before bed.

Now it has become an integral and obligatory part of life, but there are often cases when it is necessary to switch it to “sleep mode”, without notifications, unnecessary calls and SMS. To meet this need, Android provides a special “do not disturb” mode. Selecting it not only disables the operation of the entire device, but allows you to select settings, specify subscribers whose calls are especially important and should be received regardless of the situation. The only thing you need to do for successful use is to configure the device correctly.
What does "Do Not Disturb" mean?
For the first time, such an option was installed in version 5.0 Lollipop Android; depending on the version or manufacturer of the smartphone, the name may differ. Enabling this mode can completely disable or selectively limit the receipt of calls or notifications to the subscriber.
For convenience, manufacturers have pre-created the most common templates that can be used in a few clicks:
Complete silence mode. This setting involves completely turning off all sounds and even vibration.
Only an alarm clock. This mode involves turning off all notifications except the alarm clock, as well as software sounds that you launch yourself, for example, music or video games.
Only important ones. The setting involves disabling all notifications, except those that the subscriber marks as “Important”. Entertainment system notifications will also work.
Setting priority for notifications and calls
The “Do Not Disturb” mode does not completely disconnect the subscriber from society; it only helps to limit unwanted intrusion during the rest period. You can set priority settings by doing the following combination: Settings - Sound - Do not disturb - Priority notifications.
Next, you should select the type of notifications that you want to receive; by opening the “Calls” tab, you can set a list of numbers that may disturb you during the rest period. Most often, the program will offer to choose one of the following options: anyone, no one, only selected contacts, only contact list.
Special settings allow you to receive a notification if the subscriber called you two or more times; the same settings can be selected for SMS.
How to use Do Not Disturb mode correctly
You can activate Do Not Disturb mode in several available ways; this can be done automatically or manually. To use manual settings options, select:
Quick settings;
Do not disturb;
Available options: alarm only, silence, important only;

Confirmation “Ready”.
You can also disable a given mode through the quick settings menu.
To simplify the procedure for turning on the mode to automatic, you need to configure it once. To do this, go to the settings, select the “Automatic rules” mode in the “Sound” - “Do not disturb” sections. Next, select one of the proposed rules or set your own that meets the requirements.
To set your own rule, you should perform the following algorithm:
Give the rule a name;
Choose a suitable schedule;
Select an option from those offered;
Limit necessary sounds.
After setting the rules, selecting Do Not Disturb mode will take seconds, and you can enjoy good rest without outside interference.
