Notifications overriding silent

[Anonymous]

Hey guys, is there any way or possibility of getting certain apps to override silent. Trying to get a pager app to override silent

Thanks

Hi @aanthonyy, rather than using Silent mode, you will need to use Do Not Disturb in your settings and allow exceptions for the app of your choice. 

To do this: 

Settings > Notifications > Do not disturb > Allow exceptions > Apps > Add apps > Choose an app > Turn on all notifications.

I have a similar issue as OP. Do not disturb is great for at night when I'm sleeping but i have my phone set permanently on silent which dnd doesn't override.
We need the same customisations as the dnd exceptions within the silent function please
