Trying to locate a phantom default “note” sound. Only app that I had a badge from was duolingo but usually duolingo uses their own sounds but is it possible that they can use the default iPhone text tone to send you a notifcation sound without me having changed this setting?
iPhone 11, iOS 14
Hey Sueperbly,
We see that you have a question about setting tone notifications. We'll be happy to help out.
You will have to manually change the tones that you want for third-party applications: Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support.
Have a great day.
Hey Sueperbly,
Yes, that's correct. Even third-party apps can use the default iPhone notification tone for their app's notification.
Cheers.
Sorry I meant is it possible for them to start using the iPhone default tone without my permission? I believe some apps are actually doing this, has anyone else had this?
Hey Sueperbly,
Thanks for clarifying that. It can be expected for an app to use the iPhone default tone for their notifications.
Hope that clears it up!
thank you , even third party apps yes?
Can apps such as duolingo send sound notifications which are the iPhones default text tone without being manually set to do this?
