Notification sound without banner in iPhone

Every day I get this chime sound on my iPhone without any banner or notification showing what the alert is about. I checked my settings and none of my apps have “only sound” set as notification. And I have been turning them off to figure out which app it could be, to no avail.

For some reason, I feel it has to do with my activity, especially my steps, since I usually get it after being walking for a bit; right by the time I check my phone for anything, the sound would normally play.


This is the notification sound I refer to, hoping anyone can recognise it:

This sound has been going on for over a month and I still haven’t figure out yet what is triggering it.


Thanks in advance for your help.

I found the culprit. It was Stepsapp app. Funny thing is even with Sounds notifications off, it was ringing. I had to resort to turning the sound off from within the app settings itself.
