Well, as the title says, I’ve had a few notifications that alerted over night and I’m wanting to sleep instead

These are ntfy alerts, but driven by Uptime Kuma… and I can’t find a programmatic / config option that says “don’t notify between 11pm and 7am” (but willing to admit I’ve just not found it… yet…)

I need my (Android, ofc) phone to be on in case of family calls / messages, so I can’t use “Do Not Disturb”, and remembering to manually mute the ntfy app each night just doesn’t make sense to me - computers are quite capable of automating my requirements for me.

So… any pointers? I’m sure you’re not all getting alerts at 2am because your ISP dropped a few packets…

    As best I can tell, on Android, while there is scheduling, there isn’t a way to trivially say “enter do-not-disturb mode for the next N minutes/hours on a one-off basis”, which is normally what I want. I don’t want to set up a schedule; I just want to silence the thing without having to worry about forgetting to re-enable the mode. It seems like an odd omission.

      I can confirm both Pixels and Samsung phones have that feature (1/2/4 hours or indefinite). On my current phone (Samsung) you get the option by holding the DND button.

        Hmm. Thanks. Mine (Android 14, OnePlus) doesn’t appear to provide that, though holding DnD does take me to the schedule settings.

      I have the option for a schedule,a fixed time, or ask everytime.

      Edit: Also, I’m on Android 13.
