How to Put Android on Silent Mode

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where your phone rings loudly in a meeting or a quiet place, causing embarrassment or disturbance? If so, then you can avoid such situations by putting your Android phone on silent mode. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you put your Android phone on silent mode.

Step 1: Locate the Volume Buttons

The first step is to locate the volume buttons on your Android phone. Most Android phones have their volume buttons located on the left or right side of the phone. You can also check your phone’s user manual if you’re unsure where the volume buttons are.

Step 2: Press the Volume Down Button

To put your Android phone on silent mode, press the volume down button until the phone vibrates, or the volume level reaches zero. You can also use the volume slider from the drop-down menu on the home screen to adjust the volume level to zero.

Step 3: Turn on Do Not Disturb Mode

If you want to silence your phone completely, you can turn on the Do Not Disturb mode. This mode will block all notifications, calls, and messages from coming through. You can turn on the Do Not Disturb mode by following these steps:

Step 1: Go to Settings

Open the settings app on your Android phone by tapping on the gear icon or by searching for “settings” in the search bar.

Step 2: Tap on Sound & Vibration

Scroll down until you see the Sound & Vibration option and tap on it.

Step 3: Turn on Do Not Disturb Mode

Toggle the switch next to the Do Not Disturb mode to turn it on. You can also customize the settings for this mode by tapping on the option.

Step 4: Set Exceptions

If you want to allow certain contacts or apps to come through while the Do Not Disturb mode is on, you can set exceptions. Tap on the “Exceptions” option and select the contacts or apps that you want to allow.
