Hi,
Hope this is the right place to ask this.
I've got new 950XL dual sim (Euro import to the UK). Everything seems fine except Quiet Hours appears disabled. Digging around a bit I've found I can get it to work if I set the region to United States but I'd prefer to possible (US region setting seem to customise my news to being US-centric.)
Is it possible to have UK region and quiet hours?
Thanks in advance.
 
Quiet Hours is linked to Cortana so, yes, it is possible and it works for me.
 
Quiet hours is in cortanas notebook now as its all intergrated i found this out 2 days ago hope this helps
 
It's crazy that MSFT link such a basic function to a service (cortana) that they couldn't release globally. In my area (Taiwan), I have to change my region/language setting in order to just get a quiet night without getting bothered by all the app/IM notifications while expecting my phone works as alarm next to my bed in the morning.

And this brought up another issue : terrible multi-language support ability of the OS. When I set my phone in traditional Chinese language, the app list separate those apps with a-z (apps with English name) and with Taiwan's phonetic symbol (apps with traditional Chinese name - local niche apps mostly). However, when I switched to en-US then all my apps which not having English names are classified under one global icon. I tried to install an app with Russian name and it sits in the same slot with all my Chinese named apps.....this makes the app list useless.

It is totally irritating....
 
I've noticed I have the same issue, UK phone with the latest insider update. I'll need to find some time tomorrow to look into it.
 
Quiet hours only work if cortana is active and location is turned on...
