To prevent notifications from interrupting your meditation session on the Insight Timer app, you can enable Do Not Disturb (Focus Mode) on your device.
For iPhone (iOS)
You can enable Do Not Disturb in two ways:
Option 1: Through Settings
- Open Settings.
Tap Focus.
Select Do Not Disturb.
Tap Turn On.
When activated, you’ll see a crescent moon icon in your status bar.
Option 2: Through Control Center
Swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen (or swipe up from the bottom on older devices).
Tap the Focus button.
Select Do Not Disturb.
Remember to turn it off after your session if you do not want it to remain active.
For Android devices:
On Android, you can enable Do Not Disturb directly within the app:
Open the Insight Timer app.
Tap the menu icon (☰) in the top-left corner.
Select Settings.
Tap Features & Preferences.
Under Preferences, toggle Do Not Disturb on or off.
When enabled, system sounds will be muted during your session and will automatically return to normal afterward.
