Do different apps have different notification sounds? I’m a vibrate only person but I thought a notification sound was a notification sound, not some custom ring tone.
Some apps have a choice of sounds, and you can also select notification sounds through your OS, or turn them off altogether, which is what I’ve done. I don’t need every app I have beeping whenever THEY think something is important.
I definitely make use of controlling which apps buzz, and the priority setting which makes them go bz, bzzz, bz bz, etc. I don’t know where I get this trait from (it doesn’t seem to be a generational thing) but I feel it’s rude to have a phone’s volume on when others are around.
Being in a room with a bunch of people all watching things on their phones with thr volume on annoys me to no end. I feel bad even having it ding when others are around.
Android has a default notification sound, which you can change in the srttings, and most apps will not overwrite that. But apps have the option to have a different one. Snapchat for example has a custom one.
It’s pretty surprising that an app like Grindr would make use of that option, I think they have a high amount of users that would like to avoid others knowing they use the app.
On Android some apps have their own notification sounds, too. It’s very common with chat apps and other social apps (dating, language exchange, that kind of thing) and some very annoying games that earn a pretty quick disable or uninstall from me.

Hmm I haven’t seen this option before.

I’m a sounder. I’ll take sounding over the vibrator every time!
Can someone pass the eye bleach? I need to unsee this comment bad
Best I can do is hand you a smooth bore flintlock pistol.
Ah yes, brain bleach.
ig it depends on OS? like maybe on IOS apps can choose their own sound? i always had a system wide notification tone on android
