Do not disturb
On iMessage conversations, I have noticed that sometimes the “has notifications silenced” is purple and other times it is grey. What does that signify?

Hello memggbej,
We understand that your contacts are being notified that your notifications are silenced. This is a part of Focus, which is outlined here: Use Focus on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
You'll want to adjust the Allowed Notifications option to set notifications to arrive.
As for the message being purple, that means that the customized Focus has been enabled. However, when it's gray, that means that the Focus has been disabled.
To learn more, check out the link here: Allow or silence notifications for a Focus on iPhone
Please do not hesitate to reach back out to us if you have other questions.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers!
