Yep, I discovered it because I'm not someone who likes to be receiving anotifications every 5 minutes (which are mostly spam) and I wanted what iPhone users have that it throws you a summary of all notifications you have received every now and then.
So since there was no way of getting that summary on Android what I did is actuvate my DND and schedule it to get deactivated every 6 hours for 10 minutes so I can receive all the notifications within that time.
The side effect was an increase of battery that I didn't know was going to happen.
Do you somehow disable background refresh during that time? Because for me DND just silences notifications, but they still get delivered.
I check the option "hide notificatins from notification panel"
You will still "receive" notifications but they will appear on the notification panel when DND is inactive and not when it's active. Sorry, I expressed myself poorly in the previous comment, it's not that it will straight up block notifications from coming, it's more like putting you phone in silence for some time.
The reason I think this works is because the phone keeps vibrating/ringing whenever you receive a notification and that also consumes more battery.
Other than that, yes, as I said in the first comment I put some apps to sleep/deep sleep as well, depending on my use of those apps (idk if that's what you mean by background refresh).
