My wife has an iPhone 13 running 15.4.1. She is a busy attorney who seems to get phone calls constantly, day and night. We're having a horrible time getting Do Not Disturb to block phone calls at night. The "Driving" focus also fails to block incoming calls. The problem seems to be that Allow... -

Notification Summary and Focus reduced in usefulness until popular messaging apps don't implement "Direct Messages" and Focus Status Sharing
Hi everybody, I just updated to iOS 15, still I think a huge drawback to Focus and Notification Summary, which are two big improvements to iOS 15, is that only iMessage (AFAIK) supports them.
