These are not solutions to the question raised. If you silence the phone, you will probably forget to unsilence it in the morning and people will complain all day that they are calling you and you aren't answering. The whole concept of "Do Not Disturb" is for the iPhone to keep it's sound off during certain periods. However, the "charging" sound isn't controlled by Do Not Disturb. While I think that's a bug, I'd settle for never hearing the charging sound.


Is there a way to change or silence this sound?

Even if you put it on vibrate it still make the annoying vibrate noise repeatedly, that's not the solution. You have to pick your poison, be it an annoying persistent buzz or ring. The only solution is to switch to ringer and turn your ringer volume all the way down, assuming you have a secondary alarm other than your phone to wake you up.

Um, I don't want to turn off either the sound or the vibrate feature of my iPhone alarm. I like both.

I tried the application. All it does it use the fact that when you start a recording using the microphone, the iPhone will not play a sound or vibrate when you plug power. This gave me the idea of to try to use the built in Voice Memos recorder and you can accomplish the same thing with it. Start Voice Memos, make sure that the speaker icon on top right is white (not blue) start a new recording really discreet sound will be heard), pause the recording, plug your phone in, it will not play any sound nor vibrate. You can then stop the recording completely (again small discreet sound will be heard) and exit. I do not have a charging mat so I can I cannot try it with that, but I guess you could leave the recorder in pause mode all night. I tried programming an alarm an also call my phone and they both still work.


Currently I use instead the head phone jack, plugging an old plug from a broken head set which I just cut with a pair of scissors. But that won't work with the new iPhone 7 because there is no headphone jack.


I really wish Apple implement a setting for turning the sound and vibration off when you connect power, and it would need to be independent of the "do not disturb" feature.
