HI All,

I'm trying to add a do not disturb for only my emails during the evening, so I don't see them at home on my Android Phone.

I can do the do not disturb, but this is for everything, I am just looking for emails to have no notifications between certain hours.

Any way to do this for the Samsung Email client?

I am willing to change email clients to achieve this.

      I thought it was for a Disposable Nappy Deodoriser?

  Can vouch for outlook DND. You can set times so you don’t get emails at all hours. I work with a lot of international teams so I have it set so I’m not woken up by my phone going off at 2am.

    What if it's an emergency?

          @jv: I think they meant, emails going off, with phone DND, you have a double call feature for favourites.

    Cheers, I used to have outlook but preferred the Samsung client. The DND is such an awesome feature, so will try outlook again.

  you can probably do this manually but will have to do this twice a day.

  jump into app permissions and remove notifications.

  iOS has a screen time option which has a function called app limits. This can set time limits for certain apps. Either as a max 1hr a day type thing, or only making an app available during certain hours.

  I googled whether Android has a similar option:

  Depending on your version of android you can set some apps to be able to override the DND mode:
