Yesterday we reported a few fixes for the bug affecting the “Do Not Disturb” feature on iOS 6, which resulted in the feature to not turn off once it was set, causing the users of iOS6 devices to miss appointments, phone calls, and alerts.

In a statement, Apple said, “Do Not Disturb scheduling feature will resume normal functionality after January 7, 2013. Before this date, you should manually turn the Do Not Disturb feature on or off.”
This admittedly looks terrible for Apple, especially given the poor timing of their newly released advertisement for the Do Not Disturb feature, which has now become an Internet mockery:
