This is the third morning in the past couple of weeks that I take out my phone at work after 9AM and my "Do not disturb" is still on, even though it's scheduled to turn off at 08:20.

Has anyone else seen this issue? It's very annoying because it can result in missed calls and notifications. I can't really figure out any specific thing I'm doing that's causing it, either.

I had this exact same problem in Beta 5 & 6. Thankfully it seems to have been resolved (for me at least) in Beta 7. In Beta 5 & 6 I set my Focus to off at 07:00 every morning, and pretty much most mornings it doesn't turn off until between 08:00 - 08:30. I ended up having to manually turn it off as I was missing notifications / messages. As I said, since Beta 7 its been working fine, fingers crossed.

Hope its just a case of not being on the latest Beta for you, otherwise it maybe a bug that's still lurking.

Huh, this is very interesting. I wonder if this is a general bug with scheduling and not just in DnD.

This problem happened to me on Beta 7, so it's not completely fixed.

Yesterday a scheduled reminder I have set to pill my cat at 17:40 didn't go off until 18:10 or so. This sounds very similar to your Do Not Disturb not turning off until some time later. I want to write up a feedback about this but it seems impossible to actually reproduce this intentionally; whenever I set a reminder or DnD to a time in the near future it always happens on time.

Arrgh.

Shame that, as I was pulling my hair out at first thinking it was the way I set up my Focus time (was trying to get my head around Focus / DND etc), but in the end I did think it was a bug of some sort (which I did submit to Apple). I was the same, I couldn't reproduce it intentionally either. Just hope my remains stable and yours gets sorted some way or another.
 
Arrgh, this is NOT fixed in Beta 8. After it turning off on time every morning for the past few days, DND stayed on past 08:20 this morning.

I have a feeling this is one of those enraging bugs that will make it to release.
 
This happened again this morning with the GM, and I missed a message as a result. What the heck could be causing DND to not turn off on time? It does turn off most days, but sometimes it randomly doesn't. Has anyone noticed any correlation with anything else?
