In this article, we’ll show you how to turn off Do Not Disturb While Driving and customize its activation settings to suit your needs.
Turn it off manually
If your iPhone has activated Do Not Disturb While Driving and you want to turn it off, simply tap the notification that says, “You are not receiving notifications while you are driving” and then tap “I’m not driving”. This will disable Do Not Disturb and allow you to receive notifications as usual.
