First, it is a three finger double tap to mute VoiceOver speech. I do not use WhatsApp, but in the notification settings for WhatsApp, you should be able to pick a unique sound file. If not, then you need to contact the WhatsApp developer. The text message settings in contacts are only for native Apple apps, so it makes perfect sense why it doesn't work for Whatsapp. That is what the notification settings are for. HTH,

If this were possible, I’d definitely embrace the use of only one device for everything! What I tried to do to get the most experience without interruptions is to deactivate Voiceover speech via 2-finger triple-tap, and mute the switch above the volume with only vibrations to guide me with. However since my family uses Whatsap, I’ve missed messages that by the time I realize I have them, they left the store. Or other errands they’re running, thus I missed out if I wanted this or that from the store. Of course the quickest solution would be to buy myself an IPod or IPad to use as a media-consumption device, but money is tight, thus no go there. It costs sufficient money, so as to be able to kill 2 birds with one stone, to get all the use one can out of the iPhone! Some Bluetooth speakers have the capability to leave VoiceOver on the phone, thus another solution which I?ve tried, but most of the Bluetooth speakers don’t have earbuds jacks! So what tips do you guys have if you’ve used phones for everything?
