Y’all keep sound on? Lol
Why do only certain apps have customs notification sounds? I would have thought most apps would want a custom sound to stand out from each other, but it seems like only the more popular apps like Snapchat have them. Is it a feature only offered to bigger developers or something?
Yeah I don’t like the new sounds in general. They sound dated and too quiet.
I hate it. I miss important notifications because it weirdly turns off notifications for an app if I’m not tapping on it. One example is LinkedIn, I click maybe out of ten recruiter messages and Apple thinks I’m not interested. So they completely muted the notification for me. I now have to check the app regularly because of this.
These sites will literally find the silliest shit to complain about.
I suspect my opinion is gonna be unpopular amongst you’s but i actually love the new sounds and ringtones in iOS 17.
‘I like it’ is uncontroversal.
‘So it’s okay you all have to put up with what I like’ is unconscionable.
Things like this is why I don’t update.
It’s not just an Apple thing, though they are the worst offender, especially because you can’t roll back iOS updates. But with nearly every piece of software I work with now, updating is always one step forward, two steps back. I just want it to keep working the way it’s working.
And before anyone jumps in and says “but… but… what about security updates???” to that I say, fuck it. With my threat model I don’t need it, and I’d rather take whatever the minimal risk is than deal with my software constantly getting more aggravating with every update. What point is there in keeping software up-to-date if it stops working the way you need it to?
I had to go look to see what it sounded like, and I’ll tell you, Rebound sounds an awful lot like the USB insertion fail sound from that one Samsung Windows theme from the XP days (that got passed around as supposedly being from the Longhorn betas), just without the echo.

I feel like their thinking is “oh you can’t hear it? Get an Apple Watch for £399 that vibrates on your wrist so you never miss a notification”
So I can’t even set my notification iPhone sound on Twitter (X) now? The new sounds sucks and it’s unchangeable? How fucking stupid!
