App "Notifications" Have No Sound

4.5

You get the visual alert on your screen, but the phone doesn't make a sound or vibrate.

Symptoms
  • Silent alerts
  • Missed messages
  • Visual only
Possible Causes
  • "Deliver Quietly" enabled
  • App-specific mute
  • Focus Mode

Step-by-Step Fix

1

Check "Deliver Quietly"

Swipe left on the notification > Manage > Ensure it's set to "Deliver Prominently".

2

Check In-App Sound Settings

Some apps have their own volume sliders or mute toggles.

3

Disable "Do Not Disturb"

Ensure no Focus Mode is filtering out the sound.

When to See a Technician

If the phone is on "Silent" or "Vibrate", apps generally won't override that unless they are "Critical Alerts".
