Go to settings, go to notifications, go to Messages. Now make sure you have one of these selected. Mine was grey and didn’t have one selected. When I chose Notification Center my sound came back! 😎✌🏼

Okay, I need help! I updated to iOS 17.1 with high hopes that it would fix the sound notifications on just one app that I had put on my phone.


When the update was done I went into "SETTINGS", and then "NOTIFICATIONS". Under "NOTIFICATION STYLE" the app that I need help with is listed, and it has in gray underneath the app name "BANNERS, SOUNDS". When I press on the app name, it takes me to a screen where underneath the "ALERTS", (which all three are checked... i.e., "LOCK SCREEN", "NOTIFICATION CENTER", and "BANNERS" is the selection for "BANNER STYLE" which is listed as "temporary."


Right underneath the "BANNER STYLE" selection is the "SOUNDS" selection. It is all the way to the "RIGHT" and shows up in "GREEN", but when I press on it absolutely nothing happens.


If I am doing something wrong please let me know, or please write easy to follow instructions on how to fix this. I absolutely detest the mechanical sound that is being made whenever a notification for this app is received. Thank you all for your help, and I truly hope that someone can help me out.

The newest update did not fix the low notification sound for third party apps. Still getting rebound and not the tri tone. Ugh it’s useless. Still missing alerts for security cameras, weather, and basically all of them. I really I’m so disappointed. I know Apple doesn’t care. I know all of us sent Apple feedback and it did no good.

I’ve found something a bit weird with Mail on my iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS17.1 (also happened on iOS17.0.1/2/3).


If I send an email to either my work or personal imap email accounts I get no notification until I unlock the phone and open the mail app.


If I send an email to my iCloud account I get the notification pretty quickly.


I checked my notification settings and they’re identical.


What could be causing this? It used to work fine on iOS 16, and I didn’t change any settings since the update.
