I just wanted to warn people of unwanted features being forced upon users. Recently, after an update I stopped receiving calls and messages between 10 p.m. - 7 a.m. I found a feature Do Not Disturb turned on, I have never heard of this before and certainly did not turn it on. I tried turning it off, yet it would randomly turn on again. I added contacts to an exception list and after a few days, the calls were being blocked again. I found a set of instructions recently to disable it, but the setting was buried so deep within multiple screens that you would never find it on your own. I think it is off now.
My very dear friend was battling depression, and I was always there for her anytime day or night if she needed to talk. Many times, I would receive a call at 3 a.m. and spend the next few hours talking to her. On the morning of August 15th, my friend committed suicide. Checking my phone, I found that I had missed seven phone calls from her between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. The Do Not Disturb feature was enabled again, but I never turned it on. She may still be here today if those calls were not blocked.
Warning to anyone who may be relied upon from people in need. Turn the *** thing off.
