Pavel Jelic If you use your iPhone to the fullest, you most likely have a schedule set for Do Not Disturb mode. Thanks to this mode, you can be 100% sure that no one will disturb you while you are sleeping, or perhaps while you are working. After activation, all incoming calls, messages and other notifications will be muted automatically, unless you specify otherwise. However, if you have Do Not Disturb active and you are working on the device, the media sounds will not be muted. So, if you are not careful and don't mute the media sounds manually, you can accidentally start a loud video that, for example, can cause your loved one to wake up.

So, using the above procedure, it can be set to automatically mute the media volume after Do Not Disturb is activated. There are, of course, more variations for adjusting this automation – you don't have to pay attention to the Do Not Disturb mode at all, and the entire automation can be performed, for example, at a certain time, or when you reach a certain place. Do you use any automation? If so, let us know which ones in the comments - we can inspire each other.
I don't use it, because the completely unnecessary notifications about their launch and execution, which cannot be turned off in the system, get on my nerves terribly. Apple screwed up.
