I had a time-related work issue tonight and am seeking a way to guarantee it never recurs. Thanks in advance for any ideas! I have MacroDroid but I’m not sure of how to go about setting this up (namely the DND-overriding)…
In short, yes.
For the “DND override” part, this is done in the phone’s DND settings rather than Macrodroid. You just need to allow Macrodroid to interrupt the mode you have set.
Thanks, but I’m not sure of what you mean. All I can find is an option to let all callers through if they call twice in 15 min, which won’t work. I’ve got a Samsung and all I see is one contacts-exception mode across all DND schedules I see throughout the week. Here’s an example of what I’m hoping to automate:
- Monday evenings: be able to let J. through silent mode
- Wednesday afternoons: be able to let P. and R. through silent mode
I mean, configure Macrodroid to create an alert based on your criteria (time, person, etc.) and then make sure Macrodroid can interrupt your DND mode(s).
