    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.

      Hmm I haven’t seen this option before.

      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.
