Bell With Slash

The 🔕 emoji, known as the "bell with a slash" or "muted bell," represents silence, muting, or notifications being turned off. You’ll see it used most often when someone wants to say they’re not getting alerts, keeping things quiet, or going silent—like putting your phone on "Do Not Disturb." On social media and in text messages, 🔕 can signal someone’s need for peace, their intention to ignore distractions, or even a playful way of saying, "I’m not listening right now." It also pops up when someone wants to subtly announce a digital detox. People sometimes pair it with 🚫 for extra emphasis on blocking or muting, but it stands strong on its own. This emoji is perfect for conversations about tuning out the noise, both literally and metaphorically.
