What is what does it mean notifications silenced?

When notifications are silenced, it means you won't receive alerts for new messages, calls, or other updates from a specific app, contact, or even your entire device. This feature allows you to temporarily mute interruptions, offering periods of focus or rest. There are different levels of silencing, ranging from muting specific conversations to completely disabling all notifications system-wide.

Here's a breakdown of what "notifications silenced" generally means:

• No audible alerts: You won't hear any notification sounds.
• No visual cues: The screen won't light up, and you won't see banners or pop-up alerts.
• Badges may still appear: Depending on the settings, app icons might still show badges indicating unread items.
• You can still access information: Silencing notifications doesn't delete messages or prevent you from using apps; it simply stops the interruptions.
• Customizable duration: You can usually set how long you want notifications to be silenced, from a few minutes to indefinitely.
• Different types of silencing: You can silence notifications for a specific app, a specific conversation, or your entire device.
