Every 15 minutes a whoosh sound plays from my new iPad

I have a question concerning my new iPad.


Recently I noticed that every 15 minutes a whoosh(y) sound plays from my iPad. It is like windflare moving along the window or something like that. I have search through the settings but have come up (for now) empty handed.


Has anyone else noticed this and if so, does anyone have a possible solution to turn it off?

A whoosh sound sounds like an app is sending a message, or trying to tell you something.


( funny sounds always end up being rouge apps)


To doulble tap the home button and see, or close down everything in the task bar. See if the noise stops. If that does not do it, open settings and look at each of the notifications that you might have turned on.


It's in there somewhere. there was a great thread last year on strange app sounds. From mr. luigi.
