Let's say you're at work and don't want your iPhone to buzz every few minutes due to incoming messages or notifications. What to do? Many people use Do Not Disturb, a feature that hides all notifications and calls while the phone is locked.

At the same time, notifications and calls are received, the phone simply does not vibrate, ring or display them on the screen until you turn on the screen. This is very convenient when you are not actively using your phone.

But what if you answer emails from your phone or reading a book. Even with Do Not Disturb mode, notification banners will appear and the phone will vibrate for each one. This is very distracting, especially if you are focusing on something.

If you want to hide absolutely all notifications during using iPhone or iPad, you'll need to tweak the mode settings a bit.

How to hide all notifications while using iPhone

Go to Settings > Do not disturb... In the section Silence check the box next to the option Is always.

Now you will not receive any notifications at all while the Do Not Disturb mode is on. The phone will not ring or vibrate, banners will not be displayed on the screen. You will receive calls and notifications, you just won't know about it until you turn off the mode.

This is very convenient when you are busy with something important and do not want to be distracted.

Additional settings

To hide all incoming calls, in the section Call admission choose From no one.

If you only want to receive calls from certain people, you can select From the elite... This way, you will only receive notifications about calls from contacts in this group.

If you want to receive important calls, you should enable the option Repeated calls... If a person calls you a second time within three minutes, you will receive a call notification. In some situations, these calls can be extremely important.

The problem of call recognition is faced by the owners of devices from different manufacturers and mobile platforms... If you cannot identify the incoming numbers, then there is a possibility that you will have to try several methods. However, they are all fairly simple, especially for the advanced user. All these methods will be relevant for subscribers of different operators (MTS, Megafon, Beeline, Tele2).

Why calls are not displayed

In most cases, for subscribers with this problem, all calling numbers are identified as “Unknown”. Contrary to the assumption of many, this happens not only through the fault of the user. List possible reasons:

• wrong number format;
• problems with flashing or updating;
• lack of operator service - Caller ID;
• duplicate numbers.

If the cause is established, then it will take a minimum of time to recover.

Where to begin

For subscribers who recently bought a number and others, it is recommended to start by checking the list of services of the telecom provider. "Caller ID" for some operators is a separate service, there is a possibility that they forgot to activate it. Take a look at Personal Area on the website or download a branded application, where you can study the list of available and disabled services.

Determination of numbers is a free service for Beeline, MTS, Tele2, Megafon. Note! There are more cases when operators turn off all services, including free ones, for subscribers whose balance is in the red. If this includes identification of the number, then it will also be disabled, so study this point.

Do not exclude the possibility of a draw. It is likely that one of the acquaintances bought the service of hiding the number, and tried to get through several times. From the outside it may look as if the incoming numbers are not identified, although in reality it is one person.

Go ahead - deal with the numbers

There is a possibility that calls from contacts starting with a number starting with code 8 will be unknown or not identified as numbers phone book... Write down the numbers in the new format, starting with the code +7. In some cases, whitespace is required, but this is quite rare.

• For Android and iOS, all kinds of dialers, of which there are plenty in the markets, can help for a while. For example, True Phone, PixelPhone or exDialer.
• Many manufacturers produce their own casings. Disable its optimization. This can be done in the Developer menu - disable this mode. Such a moment is typical for Xiaomi with its own MIUI.
• Erase data (cache) in the Phone app and con.android.phone. Do this through "Settings" - "Applications".

Let's sum up

There are many ways to fix the situation, but it all depends on the operator, device model, installed firmware, shell and other factors. If the proposed methods did not help, which happens in isolated cases, and the incoming numbers are not determined completely (writes Unknown) or partially (does not associate the caller with a contact in the phone book), it remains only to refer the gadget to service center... Do not forget to contact the operator and manufacturer support first.

This law will come into force on July 1st. But now subscribers cellular and operators are trying to calculate how they will live in the new conditions, when, for example, a call from a landline phone to a mobile phone will need to be paid.

Report by Alexey Zotov.

It seems that mobile is not a luxury here for a long time. One of the capital's universities has continuous telephone conversations. With friends, parents. Modern students are the most active mobile subscribers. Here is just one scholarship is clearly not enough for many.

Olga Ryketskaya, student: "Why should I pay for incoming calls if they call me. Pay when I call and when I receive calls"?

Why in Russia they still pay for incoming calls, after all, everything is not so in Europe - the question is not new for a long time. The Ministry of Information Technologies and Communications has once proposed to the Duma to legalize the right of subscribers not to pay for those who dial their number. But such a law was passed only recently. There is just over a month left until July 1, when it comes into force. But the communication market representatives gathered to agree on life in the new conditions only today. Businessmen immediately announced who would pay for free incoming calls.

Stanislav Avdiyants, participant of the round table: "At the expense ... This is the exclusion of the payment for incoming call and a slight increase in outgoing call charges. "

Operators are already ready to lose some of their revenue. But - no more than ten percent. Indeed, many tariffs today already have free incoming calls. For the subscriber only, the prices for the same incoming calls will rise by 40 percent. It will be possible to call a mobile phone from a city phone only for money. They will be divided among themselves by fixed and mobile operators. The approximate cost of such a call is 6 rubles per minute. Calls from a mobile phone will cost the same amount. The operators promise that the current tariff will grow by a minimum - about thirty rubles. However, the officials of the Ministry of Communications do not like such prospects either. They say, in the United States, communication is even cheaper.

Nikolay Pryanishnikov, participant of the round table: "Prices have dropped very low, and everyone has very poor communication quality. I was there recently - call cell phone impossible".

In Russia, if everything is more or less in order with the quality of communication, among the 100 million subscribers there are still many for whom mobile is an expensive pleasure. And free incoming calls, even with the scheme offered by telecom operators, is a good way to save money.

There are situations when strange people call.

The sense of tact does not allow you to throw it off. You have to talk and spend money.

For Nikolai Dmitrievich mobile phone- in general, the only connection with the world. Local signalmen refused to extend wires to his hut. It is not profitable. Therefore, when the grandchildren call, the conversation is usually short.

Nikolay Melnikov, pensioner: "I try not to speak ... Alive, healthy, goodbye, goodbye ...".

In just a month, the pensioner will be able not to deny himself at least conversations. And the owners of landline phones will not have to save too much. As the signalmen promise, their accounts will grow, on average, by the cost of 300 grams of sausage.

A round table is not a negotiating table. And the answer to the most important question: how much the price of communication services will change - even the operators themselves do not yet know. But, in any case, they assure, "all incoming calls are free" - it will not be such a bad dream for the subscriber.
