How to turn off drive mode on iPhone?
I recently discovered that my iPhone automatically enables Drive Mode whenever I get into my car. While I understand that this feature is designed for safety, I often find it more of a hindrance than a help. I don’t want my notifications to be silenced, and I’d prefer to have full control over my device even when I’m driving. Moreover, this mode sometimes activates in situations where I’m not even driving, which can be quite frustrating. Could someone please explain the steps I need to follow to turn off Drive Mode on my iPhone? Any detailed guidance on this would be greatly appreciated.

If Drive Mode is an irritation, here’s how to disable it:
1. Open Settings.
2. Navigate to Do Not Disturb.
3. Tap Activate under Do Not Disturb While Driving.
4. Choose Manually.
5. Ensure under Auto-Reply To you choose your preference for whom the auto-reply messages should go to.
This makes Drive Mode activate only when you manually do it.
