Although thanks to mobile we have the possibility of being in contact with our collaborators, sometimes there are too many distractions due to notifications. In these cases, the Do Not Disturb mode is a real lifesaver. Although this mode essentially reduces notifications and app prompts, it can be customized for an improved experience. Well, with Android 15 Do Not Disturb customization options have been improved.
A few hours ago, Google released Android 15 QPR 1 Beta 1 and among its novelties are precisely the new settings of the Do Not Disturb mode. Be careful because it is not just about giving them a new name, but also giving them a good facelift with a new mosaic of quick settings and more options. This is what the new Do Not Disturb mode will look like in Android 15.
What changes in Android 15 Do Not Disturb mode
As Android expert Mishaal Rahman explains in Android Authority, there are no major visual changes compared to what can be tried in Android 15 QPR1 Beta 1 beyond the appearance of an icon below the main screen header and options buttons in the apps section of the screen.

Likewise, the “Filtered Notification Display Options” have been simplified to the point that only the “Display Settings” remain, now integrated into the screen section. It is precisely in this section that new options appear such as activating grayscale, deactivating the always-on screen mode, dimming the screen background or activating the dark mode. In short, it Google wants the screen to be less of a protagonist in Android 15’s Do Not Disturb mode.
The ‘Schedules’ option is also gone, but not because it’s been completely removed: you can enable Do Not Disturb mode manually from Settings or from Quick Settings, but if you want to set a schedule, then you’ll need to create a schedule.
What is this Priority mode? The vitaminized version of Do Not Disturb modeIn a nutshell. It is accessed through the same route, but it includes Do Not Disturb mode and the mode you create. That is, you can give it the name and icon you want, an activation form, a screen configuration and a notification configuration. So, even if the interface has been simplified, the options have increased.
Google is designing a new renewed Do Not Disturb mode where we have more freedom to configure what is a priority and what remains at the second level. Although this interface seems quite advanced in Android 15 QPR1 Beta 1, it is worth remembering that this new feature and any other in beta phase It is subject to both possible developments and remaining in the pipeline while Android 15 is a reality within reach of all its users.
