no way to turn off the horrible loud bong charging sound without hitting the mute switch. But turning on mute disbles siri speaking out loud and phone calls. Any solution to at least change the annoying charging sound to something different?
Of course all Apple has to do is offer a few different sound selections.
iPhone 14 Pro Max
+1. If you connect to a charger while connected to a Bluetooth speaker the “bong” noise comes through the speaker. Annoying. A visual cue that you’re charging is enough. This should be in accessibility settings to choose if you want a non-visual cue that your phone just attached to a charger.

I've added my own sound; but can't get rid of the old one.
The sounds my phone makes when I attach it successfully to a MagSafe charging pad are clearly audible. Still, I wouldn't characterize them as horrible sounds or as a reason to hit the mute switch. Especially since the phone just makes the sounds once per attachment.
Note that in iOS 14 and later, it is possible to set up an additional charging sound using Shortcuts. If by chance, you (or someone else who uses the phone) have created a Shortcut that plays a horrible sound in addition to the default one, you could undo that customization.

I live in a place where the electricity often goes out, usually just a few seconds. If it comes back on while my phone is charging there is a sound that plays. If that is in the middle of the night it wakes me up. Sometimes several times a night. This is unacceptable!
Ringtone volume does not affect it.
I have no battery shortcuts installed.
If the phone is in silent mode, what else will not be heard?
When it comes to changing the charging sound of iPhone you can proceed via any of the three methods discussed below:

I often wondered how some people get thousands of “points” on these boards, now I know.
This is a problem for me as well as the ding sound of charging is routed to my hearing aids! While I appreciate that this sound doesn’t bother many folks, there should be an option to turn it off.
It’s loud enough to wake my wife
so “horrible loud bong” is an excellent description
My phone makes a barely audible beep when I connect the phone to a charger. Not a “horrible loud bong”. And it makes it just ONCE when I connect the charger. If you are observing something else your phone or your charger probably has a hardware problem.
Then you will have to live with it.
Any way to turn off or change the horrible charging sound without the mute switch?
