I want to turn off the “Do Not Disturb” that somehow got turned on. How can I do that? I went to Settings, Focus, but cannot find an option to turn the stupid thing off. This has occurred only since I just updated the new software. I just updated the software for my iPhone. Now the “Do Not Disturb” mode is locked on. I cannot get it to go off. I went to Settings, then Focus, which shows the “Do Not Disturb” mode is “on”. But I cannot find where I can turn it off or return it to its previous night hour schedule. How can I turn off the “Do Not Disturb” mode. It has been applied across all my devices.

How to remove ‘Do not disturb’ continually showing in my iPhone My iphoneSE version 17.4.01 has ‘Do not disturb’ continually showing. I have only noticed this in the last week. How do I get rid of it? I have gone into Focus and found ‘Do not disturb’ with an off button but clicking on that only opens up another page and does not turn the ‘Do not disturb‘ off. Any suggestions? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Focus has suddenly silenced my text sounds and sends a message that I have silenced my text messages. I have never set up Focus until all text was silenced and I still can’t get Do not Disturb to off
