After I manually turn on the driving focus on my iPhone, it seems to turn off by itself. I would expect that the driving focus should stay on the until I manually turn it off.
I turn on the driving focus at bedtime because it’s the only focus right now that supports auto-reply to messages (come on, Apple) but it seems to turn off sometime in the middle of the night. Maybe because the phone somehow knows I’m not driving??
