Disable Android Notifications While Sleeping Easily 2020 (No root)

Note: This tutorial is only for smartphones with Android versions Pie and above

So you are in bed all set to get a good night sleep and suddenly you hear the familiar chime from your phone, its a new notification and your brain gets active loosing interest in sleeping wanting to know what interesting new information has come one you smartphone. 

According to studies the steady flow with each new notification you read the brain produces a reward hormone dopamine making it so hard to ignore notifications. May be some can but a whole lot of people cannot and when this notifications comes during sleep time it really messes up your biological clock. 

Luckily there is an easy fix for that due to Google focus from Android 9 Pie on not only new features but also add features to help users use their phones responsibly. These features comes under an app called Digital Wellbeing which should already be available on your phone or you can download it from ApkMirror.

Steps

Step 1: Check if you have Digital Wellbeing installed by going to settings and look for the option Digital Wellbeing and Parental controls. I have checked this feature on an Asus and Realme smartphones running Android 9 pie and it's already available in the settings.

For other smartphones you may have to download it from APKMirror and install it, which should work as this uses features available in all phones.

Step 2: Inside the Digital Wellbeing and Parental controls options you will see Bedtime mode under the title WAYS TO DISCONNECT press that.

Step 3: On the next screen there will be a series of screens describing its working, if press next if you want to read through or skip to go directly to the settings option.

Step 4: Now choose Based on schedule option under Turn on Bed time and set the start and end time you want. For example if you go to bed at 11:00PM and wakes up at 6:00AM choose start time as 11:00PM and end time as 6:00 AM.

Step 5: Next under customise or when Bedtime is on Select the do not disturb option. You can keep the grayscale option on if you will like the colours to turned off. 

That’s it and now you are all set to have a good night sleep free from those pesky notifications and for me this was one of the features I always wanted and feel its really useful.
