Automate settings with Assist
Use Assist to automate your phone settings and responses during events you’ve added to your calendar, and when you're sleeping.
NoteAssist does not require a data connection.
Assist has activities that you customise with your preferences:
- Sleeping. Set options to turn off ringtones and notifications for all calls or accept only important calls during the hours you specify. Alarms and media are not silenced.
- Driving. Set options to hear incoming text messages and the names of callers announced, set up an automatic reply to calls and texts and start music you last played. Control is hands-free. This activity requires GPS to be on, since driving motion activates it.
- Meeting. Set options to silence ringtones and notifications or switch to vibrate, accept only important calls and send automatic text message replies to favourite contacts during calendar events. All-day events are not included.
- Home. Set options to read text messages and caller IDs aloud.

When Assist is active
When Assist is adjusting your phone settings, you’ll see an icon in the status bar with a notification, such as:
| Home |  |
| Meeting |  |
| Sleeping |  |
- Swipe the status bar down to view the notification.
Optionally:
- To change settings, touch the activity name to open the card.
- To temporarily stop using settings for the activity, touch "I’m not…" to indicate that you're not doing the activity. (If you don’t see this option, drag the notification down with two fingers.) Your settings resume the next time you start the activity.
