I usually do this every night when I’m about to sleep, and also during times when I want to decompress from the barrage of notifications. Sure, DND mode is a thing but I really enjoy the feeling of being unreachable sometimes. Having it on DND still makes you receive the notifications. It’s also easier than turning your phone on and off. Regarding emergencies, I really don’t have any situations where it’d be so pressing for me to react immediately to something. And either way I’d never sleep having volume/vibration enabled from calls.
Is there anyone that relates to this?
I use sleep mode on iOS and that will block basically everything. Emergency alerts will still go through, which is important to me as I live in a very wildfire prone area. My mom is white listed as well for family emergencies. Sleep mode will also allow a call to ring if they call twice back to back and that has allowed my brother to reach me in the past during an emergency. I’d be too nervous to completely cut data and cell service.
