DND, or Do Not Disturb allows you to completely silence all the notifications or add some exceptions to it. This feature is available in devices since Android 5.0 Lollipop. In this guide, we will show you how to sync this DND Mode across your various Android devices. So, if you enable or disable the DND on one of your device, automatically all other synced devices will follow the suit.
And for this to take place, you will have to download two apps, Tasker and Join. Tasker is an automation app that allows you to automate or create various tasks, profiles, triggers, scenes and even let you create your own app. You may check our detailed guide on Tasker to know more about it.

Creating the Sync Environment

- Once you click on the Import button, Import Data dialog will open. Click on Yes.
- Next, you will have to give the app Do Not Disturb permissions. Enable the toggle under the “Do not disturb” access settings menu.
