Annoyingly loud message volume

When I receive notification (let's say WhatsApp message), I get very loud notification sound although I've set my notification sound volume to the minimum. When I get phonecall, the ringer sound is the volume I've set, but notifications doesn't seem to respect the volume value. Notifications are very loud. It is annoyingly loud on minimum.

It is really loud even at the quietest volume setting while actual ringtones and message notifications are okey.

I am not sure what to do, I do not want to turn off notification sounds but it is not needed to hear them so annoyingly loud.

What is solution for this?

iPhone X, iOS 14

Hello Big_Timo,


Thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities. We understand that you are having trouble with certain apps like WhatsApp adhering to volume settings for notifications. We would love to provide you support on this. 


WhatsApp doesn't have a notification volume setting, however it does have a setting that allows you to change the notification sound. Since other apps including your ringtone adheres to the volume setting you may need to contact WhatsApp to get troubleshooting steps for the app itself.

Have an awesome and productive day!
