I must be failing to understand something about Do Not Disturb. When I have it turned on, I still get notifications from all of the apps that distract me, whether it's a game, eBay, Foursquare, FB, whatever. Does it do anything other than block incoming texts and calls? It seems there should be a way to allow app notifications en masse when I want them, and stop them all when I don't - without resorting to a tedious trip through the Notifications changing the settings one app at a time.

It's a bit of a design issue but you actually need to go into Settings -> Notifications -> Do Not Disturb to actually setup your DnD preferences including automatic scheduling. Then, you can flip it on or off from the main Settings screen. It does stop your app notifications from disturbing you but your phone has to be locked for that.
