Missing a call can be frustrating, especially when you are waiting for an important call from the doctor’s surgery or a job interview.
Apple experts at iDropNews have compiled some tips for iPhone users to ensure that they never miss a call again.
Set Custom Ringtones for Your Contacts
One of the most apparent steps to take is to choose a custom ringtone for your contacts.
To set a custom ringtone on iPhone, you can head to the Contacts app, select a contact, tap Edit, and scroll down to the ‘Ringstones’ or ‘Text tones’ sections.
This will enable you to set a custom ringtone for a specific contact so that you can know who is calling without having to check your phone.
Enable Emergency Bypass
The Emergency Bypass feature ensures that calls from specific contacts get through to you even when Do Not Disturb is activated.
To enable it, follow the same steps as you would to set a custom ringtone, but toggle the Emergency Bypass feature to green.
After selecting a vibration pattern and tapping ‘Done’, your changes will be saved and applied.
Use LED Flash for Alerts
The iPhone can send you notifications using a flashing LED light on the camera flash, allowing you to keep up to date even in a noisy environment where you cannot hear the ringtone or text alert.
To enable this feature, go to the iPhone Settings app, scroll down to Accessibility, tap Audio/Visual, and toggle ‘LED Flash for Alerts’ on.
