Times when I want to be at complete peace with myself; especially during leisure times or soulful meditation, the very first thing that I do to keep unwanted interruptions away is to turn on Do Not Disturb on Apple Watch. Once DND is activated, both sounds and taps are disabled on the smartwatch so that you do not get distracted by the incoming alerts. If you are curious to know how this useful feature works, let me help you enable and customize Do Not Disturb on your Apple Watch.
You can invoke Do Not Disturb right from your Apple Watch without having to rely on your paired iPhone. Moreover, you can also choose to enable DND for one hour, till evening or even keep it turned on until you leave a particular place, which could be spot-on for the times where you are in a meeting or enjoying a flick with your loved ones.
