Phone call interrupts app

[Avoidinghills]

Hi all, a couple of times during runs my phone has rung and although I haven’t answered it, the call has paused the c25k app. Is there a way to stop this happening? I had to guess my time today which was pretty annoying at the start of week 8! Thank you

That happened to me too. I don't think there's a fix. ☹️

Have you got an iPhone? The ‘Do Not Disturb’ feature will silence all calls and notifications for any length of time you choose. 👍🏼

Of course! Totally forgot about that. Although if you are using the phone with do not disturb on then I don’t think notifications are silenced 🤔. Maybe listening to an app doesn’t count! Thanks so much

That’s right, it doesn’t count - I have my phone set to DND from 10pm-8am everyday but I still listen to podcasts, audiobooks, etc.

The key is to lock your screen once you’ve got everything playing that you want to, otherwise you might still receive notifications.

There’s also additional options for ‘emergency’ twice-in-a-row calls getting through.

Hope that helps! 🙂
