How to keep apps vibrating on Ring Mode?

I want to keep some of my apps vibrate-only, but the rest of my apps to make sounds. How exactly do I go about doing this?


Example: I get a lot of messages on Facebook Messenger, so I just want my phone to vibrate when I get a message, but I do want my phone to ring when I get a text message or snapchat.


I hope this makes sense, it's kind of a weird question to ask..

Hi Sawyer,

I understand that you want to change your notifications so that some apps do not play a sound. I'm happy to provide some help for this.

Check out the steps to change your notification settings here:

Change alert styles and settings for notifications

Customize your notifications with different alert styles so you can act quickly on emails, calendar invites, messages, and more. To add or change an alert style for a notification, go to Settings > Notifications and select an app.

Notifications from apps can have these alerts styles:

  • Banners: Banner alerts appear at the top of the screen and go away automatically. To reply, swipe down on the banner or swipe up to dismiss it. If you have an iPhone 6s or later, you can respond to a banner alert with 3D Touch. Just press deeply on a banner alert to respond.
  • Alerts: With Alerts, you need to act before you can move on. Depending on the app, you can dismiss the alert or reply to it.
  • Badges: A Badge is the red number that appears on an app icon and shows you how many notifications you have for that app.
  • Sounds: Have an app play a sound to alert you when you receive a notification.
