A communication apparatus includes a communication device ( 130 ) and an activity monitoring device ( 120 ). The communication device ( 130 ) includes an alert device ( 275 ) for notifying a user ( 110 ) of an incoming call. The communication device ( 130 ) further includes a controller ( 210 ) for selecting a mode of the alert device ( 275 ). The controller ( 210 ) judges, based on data from the activity monitoring device ( 120 ), whether the user can be disturbed, and, if the user ( 110 ) can be disturbed, the controller ( 210 ) selects an audible mode of the alert device ( 275 ). If the controller ( 210 ) determines that the user ( 110 ) cannot be disturbed, then the controller ( 210 ) selects a silent mode of the alert device ( 275 ). The activity monitoring device ( 120 ) produces data representing a biometric characteristic of the user ( 110 ), which is used by the controller ( 210 ) to judge whether the user ( 110 ) can be disturbed. A corresponding method (FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 ) selects an appropriate alert mode based user biometrics.
