Priority modes are available through the ‘Settings’ menu, available from the main screen of your Nokia 3. Once in this menu, you can go down to the ‘Sounds and notifications’ menu, then to ‘Ringtones’. In this last menu of your Nokia 3 you will have a choice between these three options:
- No ringtone: no vibration, no ringtone or even no lighting up screen.
Even the alarm clock and other emergency messages from your Nokia 3 will be disabled.
Through this mode, your Nokia 3 is completely silent.
- ‘Priority’ mode: with this mode you deactivate all ringtones except alarms and other notifications.
This option is very handy to turn your Nokia 3 into an alarm clock for instance.
- Mode ‘All’: the silent mode of your Nokia 3 is deactivated.
