Google voice allows you to set what times it will forward numbers, so that gives you a second 'group' of contacts you can assign call times to (give them your voice number, allow them through do not disturb if necessary). It rather surprises me that there's no app for granular ringtone settings to allow calls from certain contacts only at certain times or on certain days.
- allow work calls and disallow family calls 9-5 weekdays only
- allow family calls but not work calls to bypass do not disturb by ringing a second time
- allow annoying acquaintance who wants tech support to only call on weekends, and to only ring on second call
- if working two jobs, prevent each workplace from calling during other workplace's scheduled hours
- add geofencing. don't allow community/neighbor calls while at work.
Basically, just add rules for each contact/group for when your phone will ring. Android used to have multiple sound profiles available, and IIRC allowed you to change the volume and default ringer, these could be activated automatically on a schedule. Now we only have Do Not Disturb, and that's it.
