Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/1301

💡 Idea
At the time, when the "Keep alerting for highest priority" toggle is enabled, the notification sound is still being played in loop until the app is opened, even if Do Not Disturb is on. The expected behavior would be following device notification preferences though.
I would love letting this stay enabled, but when I'm in a meeting or sth I don't want to get bombarded with notification sounds

💻 Target components
Both app platforms likely

"Keep alerting for highest priority" is specifically designed to ignore Do Not Disturb. It's intended for things like waking you up in the middle of the night when your production server is down, even if Do Not Disturb is blocking other notifications.

As a workaround, you can turn off the volume on your "Alarm" audio channel during meetings (but if you don't remember to turn it back up, then you'll miss the next very important notification)

Makes sense, ig.
Maybe adding a toggle to specifically change that behavior would probably be appropriate; separating the DND ignore and the repeated notification.
Or at least adding a small disclaimer that it will ignore DND, currently there's none
