The Priority Mode/Do Not Disturb trigger fires when the device's Priority Mode or Do Not Disturb state is changed to a specific configuration. This allows you to automate actions based on the device's notification interruption settings.

Options

  • Allow All - Fires when all notifications are permitted (Do Not Disturb is off)
  • Allow Priority Notifications - Fires when only priority notifications are allowed
  • Block All - Fires when all notifications are blocked (total silence)
  • Alarm Only - Fires when only alarm notifications are permitted (Android 6.0+)

Examples

Actions

Notes

  • The "Alarm Only" option is only available on Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) and higher
  • On older versions of Android (5.x), only three options are available: Allow All, Allow Priority, and Block All
  • The trigger listens for changes to the system's interruption filter setting
  • Do Not Disturb settings can be changed manually by the user, by scheduled rules, or by apps with the appropriate permission
  • This trigger reacts to the system DND state, regardless of what changed it
