I figured out a way to do this but it’s quite cumbersome. Here’s how:
1 - In InkOS go to Extras > System Shortcuts and check the box next to “Settings Search”.
2 - In your App Drawer, open Settings Search and search for “Notification”, scroll and click on “Notification dot on app icon”.
3. Click on “Do Not Disturb” and toggle it “On”.
4. Click on “People” and then “Messages” (note: if you click on “Calls” it closes the settings menu) and then “Starred Contacts”.
5. Go into your Contacts and click on the star next to their name for people you want to allow to have access to message you while in DND mode (I enabled my home alarm company as an example as they send a text when there’s a home event).
Do I think I’ll ever use this? Yes until there’s a proper fix/feature but begrudgingly because it’s 4 clicks for me to enable/disable (Apps > Settings Search > Toggle DND > Home) and it doesn’t seem to work for calls (why this menu is inaccessible I do not know).
If anyone else has figured out a better way please do let me / the community know!
