In case you don’t just like the default notification sound in your iPhone, robust luck. Apple hasn’t supplied any means of adjusting it going again so far as we are able to bear in mind–thus the iPhone’s long-standing ascending three-note sound has develop into considerably synonymous with smartphone notifications.
After all, Apple has all the time allow you to change the notification sound for sure apps equivalent to Messages and Mail, and even some particular varieties of notifications (like your Ring doorbell). However for many alerts, you get what Apple provides you which of them, till iOS 17 was known as Tri-tone. When iOS 17 launched, Apple up to date a bunch of tones and sounds, altering the default alert from Tri-tone to Rebound. It’s a much less harsh sound, however some customers complained it’s additionally much less noticeable and maybe quieter, and so they wished to return. Till now, they couldn’t.
With iOS 17.2, Apple’s going to do you one higher: Not solely are you able to restore the sound to Tri-tone, you may lastly change the default notification sound and haptics to no matter you need.
First noticed in iOS 17.2 beta 4, all it’s a must to do is open the Settings app, faucet Sound & Haptics, and search for the brand new Default Alerts setting. Faucet that and you’ll restore the notification sound to Tri-tone (you’ll discover that inside Basic), or use some other alert sound you would like. You too can change the haptics to your default sound.
It’s an overdue change, to say the least. {Couples} in every single place will not must ask “Was that my cellphone or yours?” when an alert is available in. Thanks, Apple.
