How To Turn Focus Mode On & Off Using Action Button On iPhone 15
To get started, navigate to the “Settings” app on your home screen. Scroll down within the Settings app and find the “Action Button” option. Tap on it to proceed. Inside the Action Button settings, look for the ‘Focus‘ option and tap on it to select it.
After choosing ‘Focus‘ as the function for the Action Button, you’ll see the option “Do Not Disturb” with an arrow next to it. Tap on the arrow, and you’ll be presented with three options: “Do Not Disturb,” “Sleep,” and “Work.” Choose the one that aligns with your current activity or mood.
To activate Focus Mode using the Action Button, return to your home screen. Now, simply long-press the Action Button. You’ll notice the Focus banner appearing, glowing in a light blue color, now active in the mode you selected—Do Not Disturb, Sleep, or Work.
To deactivate Focus Mode quickly, use the Action Button. Long-press the button until the Focus icon appears on the screen, now in a gray color. This indicates that Focus Mode is no longer active, and your notifications will return to their normal settings.
