Settings & keep-time · Quiet Hours, pausing and schedules
What does the Quiet hours line in the popover status mean?
Short answer: It shows whether quiet hours are holding automatic work back right now: your scheduled window with "active now", "Smart • OK to run" or "Smart • active —" plus a reason, or "Always on • never quiet".
It tells you whether automatic work is being held back right now, and why. What you see depends on your mode:
- Scheduled — your window, such as
9-19, with • active now added while you're inside it. - Smart — Smart • OK to run, or Smart • active — followed by the reason, such as "user busy".
- Always on — Always on • never quiet.
"Active" here means quiet hours are in effect, so automatic work is waiting.
