However, the best quite mode functionality is the ability to block you out from using Facebook. On a high, the feature will allow you to temporarily block it for a maximum of 15 minutes before locking you out, in simple terms, allow you to sneak for updates.
Once you set a time limit you in-which you wish to use Facebook, notifications will be blocked, but if you try to access the Facebook app, a countdown timer will popup with an option to either end Quiet mode or temporarily disable it for 15minutes
