Why Does My New iPhone 17 Keep Turning on Do Not Disturb?

I just upgraded from an iPhone X to an iPhone 17, and I'm regretting it. The biggest issue I'm facing is that my new phone keeps automatically switching to Do Not Disturb mode. It's doing this without my permission, even when I'm at work, which means I'm missing crucial emails and texts. I've checked the settings and removed any automatic scheduling for DND, but it still turns on several times a day without notification. It's driving me crazy! Can anyone help me figure out how to stop this?

Some people just vent instead of asking for help. But hey, maybe turning your phone off for a bit or resetting the settings can help!

This seems like a problem thatโ€™s more about settings than the phone itself. Make sure you don't have a DND schedule set up anywhere else, or that it's not syncing with another device. You could also go into settings and allow certain work apps to bypass DND if you need to.

DND settings sync across your Apple ID. If it's turning on your watch or computer, it can also affect your phone. You might want to double-check those devices to see if they're the cause.

Have you checked if you have any other Apple devices linked to the same account? Sometimes, DND can be triggered from another device, like your computer or iPad. That might be what's happening here.
