FaceTime outgoing call sound

Does anyone know if Apple plans on ever changing the ringtone on outgoing FaceTime calls? Receiving a call is fantastic...making one feels like my eardrums are being torn a new one 😁

iPad Air Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 10.3.2

Thanks for answering my question; I seemed to have really bothered you by posting a question that's "not allowed," so apologies. I'd like to point out, though, that just because something is "just fine" for you doesn't mean that others feel the same way. It's a pretty basic concept; maybe it'a something you should review from time to time.

I don't have an answer but would like to add my voice to the others requesting that we be able to customise the outgoing ringtone. If we can customise most other sounds, why should this be so difficult for Apple to sort out? It sounds like a (not-so-musical) machine-gun-fire staccato sound to me and makes me shudder every time I make a call.

Can I say I really agree that the outgoing FaceTime sound is absolutely ear-splitting to me. As an autistic woman even more so. Please please please fix this it hurts me to call people and FaceTime is the only way to contact my friend because the new update ruined our connectivity. This update has already ****** me off. PLEASE fix this before I hate iPhones entirely.

How is quoting rules back helpful or constructive?


The post can easily be interpreted as "Is there any way to change the incredibly annoying ringtone for Facetime outgoing calls?" or maybe "I hereby formally request Apple add a feature to allow the user to set the sound for the Facetime outgoing call, just like most of the other iOS sounds."

Do you have an answer to the technical question (admittedly asked obliquely) of how to change the outgoing Facetime ringtone/sound?
