Wanted to listen to a podcast but silence notifications, do not disturb also silenced episode play.

Adding antennapod as an exception in do bit disturb did not help even when all antennapod categories were checked.

Maybe a do not disturb problem rather than an antennapod Hot problem but I could use some guidance in how to work around this issue.

Thanks for your help

Hi @Brian_Cuttler,
I’m not entirely sure what you mean; what the goal is that you want to achieve.

Can you maybe try to explain in different words? (Don’t hesitate to write it in your mother tongue and use a translation service, if that helps to put it to words.)

I wanted to listen to podcasts while going to sleep. Started playing a podcast, set the timer.

To avoid other distractions and alerts, I turned on the do not disturb feature on the phone.

This caused podcast playback to be silenced re-enabling notifications on silenced podcast playback.

In the do not disturb settings, I added antenna pod as an exception and allowed all notifications from antennapod.

It’s not clear to me if the fault is in the communications channel that antennapod uses or the way the exceptions are created and do not disturb or some basic flaw in the do not disturb features.

I was wondering if anybody else had seen this and had a workaround for it.

Hope that’s a bit clearer.
