2. Tap Allow exceptions:
   • Calls: Set to "Contacts only" or "Starred contacts" — allows calls from family/emergency contacts only.
   • Messages: Set to "Starred contacts" — you won't miss an urgent text from a parent.
   • Repeat callers: Allow — if someone calls twice within 3 minutes, the call rings through (genuine emergencies).
   • Alarms: Always allow — study timers and alarms still work.
3. Tap Do Not Disturb schedule to set automatic start/end times for study sessions.

Schedule DND for Study Hours

4. DND activates and deactivates automatically.

Method 2: Focus Mode (Digital Wellbeing)
