I see 0 reason why Apple or Google would do this. Imagine the outrage, and the potential for abuse is exponential (not even abuse: you wouldn't be able to use this feature is most of NYC or any mixed use property since you'd inadvertently take out anyone living above the businesses).
Apple already has a solution for this. If you have something on your calendar, like a party invite, it'll suggest to turn on DND until you leave / until the end of the event. No forced "your phone is now disabled, go talk to people" necessary.
- nytesky 4y agoI haven’t seen the auto DND but putting DND in my calendar events (and could be included with invites/wallet tickets which we would then accept) is a pretty nice idea too. True it is ripe for abuse, hence why I was suggesting a geofence which requires setting up a physical waypoints around the enclosed space — not just a Wi-Fi hotspot telling your phone to keep it down. They could require a key purchased from Apple which then could be reported for abuse. Probably cheaper than foam case locks.
