Help Contacts and presence

Set your status and Do not disturb

Show colleagues whether you're available, and silence calls when you're busy.

Your status is shared across all your apps. It also changes automatically when you're on a call or in a meeting.

Change your status

Click or tap your profile picture and pick a status. You can add a short status message, such as "Back at 2pm".

Important

Do not disturb sends calls to voicemail. Remember to switch it off, or you'll miss calls.
