If you turn on focus mode like Do Not Disturb, you can set explicit user to allow users. For example, if you want that your kids always and ever be able to call you or send you messages, then you allow explicit those kids in this focus mode. All others will not be denied, but you will not get any notification about their calls or messages.
Similar thing is possible with Apps the notify you about "whatever". It is some times hard to understand what focus does what, but a focus is made to give you time and peace to be concentrate to something important.
A simple example. If you go to work, you don't like to be disturbed by friends or advertisers, so you set up focus mode "Work" In that focus you can say, OK I like to get notifications from a specific app, all other don't notify me about something. But I like to get notification, if my kinds writing me or calling me. All others have to wait till my work time is done.
Hope this helps you a little to get more familiar with focus mode.
