RE: Re: Notifications in iOS 17 are too quiet, and there's nothing you can do about it

2023-09-20 Thread Renee Patete
Setting ringtones as text tones and vice versa has been available in iOS for as 
far back as I can remember. They probably just changed it so users would find 
it easier to find the right tones, but like someone else in this thread said, 
it causes issues with iTunes tones which may be classified as "ringtones" but 
may in fact be alert tones. I have several such tones, and fortunately those 
that were assigned to contacts or other notifications have stayed the same 
after the update, as long as I don't change them.

Sorry.
I totally forgot about those with hearing aids.
I totally agree that Apple should let the customer choose notification
sounds that suit their needs.

RE: Notifications in iOS 17 are too quiet, and there's nothing you can do about it

2023-09-20 Thread Dennis Long
I've reported it through feedback and called apple once 17 officially dropped.  
This was a on purpose change that I suspect will be rolled back.  The best they 
can do is give a user option to let us choose our sound.

I've had the same issue and have reported it in the Feedback Assistant. I

Re: Notifications in iOS 17 are too quiet, and there's nothing you can do about it

2023-09-20 Thread Øyvind Lode
My notifications come through loud and clear.
I use the note sound for text messages etc and it sounds like it always has.
The only difference I find is the default notification sound.
That has changed to a lower tone which I actually like.
So, what are everyone complaining about?

There is something you can do and that is to file this as a complaint with 
Apple Accessibility. Keep in mind that if nobody officially complains about it 
then it is unlikely anything will be done about it. If several hundred 
complaints are received then Apple may take it more serioously.

Notifications in iOS 17 are too quiet, and there's nothing you can do about it

Apple's new notification sound is too quiet, iOS 17 and other than some 
settings in specific apps, there's no way to fix it.

By: MALCOLM OWEN
SEPTEMBER 19, 2023 11:31 AM EDT
Apple rolled out iOS 17 on Monday, complete with a long list of features and 
updates. One quiet change was the notification sound, named Rebound, which is a 
replacement for the well-known Tri-tone alert.

The problem is that it's a literal quiet change. People are complaining that it 
is not loud enough to be really useful as a notification sound.

In posts to X, formerly known as Twitter, users complain that the default 
notification tone in iOS 17 is too quiet "even at full volume."

Part of the issue is there's no way to alter the sound. There's no option 
within the various settings of iOS 17 to adjust just the notification sound to 
make it louder.

Users who prefer the sound of the Tri-tone alert are also unable to get that 
back either, as you cannot change the default sound in iOS 17.

At this stage, there's nothing that users can do except complain to Apple about 
it. It is unclear if Apple will include extra settings in an iOS 17 update that 
enables notification sounds to be altered, but if there's enough noise about 
the problem, it could become a reality in the future.
