The iOS 17 have added new notification tone, alarm tone to all its iPhone/iPad models including iPhone 15,14,13 pro max etc. But many iPhone users are reporting very low Notification sound. The notification tone sound became too Low in iPhone after updating to new iOS 17. Many iPhone users are liking and it’s too quiet to be heard. The issue started only after updating the iPhone to latest iOS 17 and while receiving notification on Facebook, Gmail, Whatsapp , Gmail etc , it is difficult to hear the notification and users are missing important notification due to this.
After installing the iOS 17, iPhone sounds for Notification tone is very Low like in Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, Whatsapp and emails. Even when the Ringer volume is set to maximum volume, still the it is difficult to hear the notification sound as the in iOS 17 the notification tone volume is too low. The new Notification Tone named “Rebound” is surely causing many trouble to iPhone users.
One user reported
“default notification tone changed in iOS 17 and its worst change they could make. You can barely hear notifications from Snapchat, Instagram, Youtube, Facebook , when the phone is right next to you, not to mention when it’s another room. Apple should allow the user to choose the notification sounds instead of changing it to this new one.”
The iOS 17 have added new set of ringtone named “Rebound” for iPhone users and a new default ringtone for notifications. But unfortunately in iOS 17 you still can’t change notification tone to something else. The new notification ringtone in the Apple is liked by some users as it is pleasant sounding and toned down. But some iPhone users are still habitual of old notification tone are not happy with it and reporting the it is difficult to hear the new notification tone in iPhone.
The only setting you can do to increase the volume of notification tone is to go to iPhone Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Ringer and Alerts and drag the volume slider to the level you want. It it is already at max level then you can’t do anything about it. If you want to change the default notification tone in iPhone and since the option to change it is still not available on iPhone, You can report your Feedback to Apple by giving clicking here on Feedback .
iOS 17 do not provide option to change notification tune for apps like Instagram, Sanpchat, Facebook, Whatsapp, other social media app etc. However you should also check if there’s an option to change the sound inside the app settings. If the app also do not provide option to change the setting then there’s nothing you can do.
If you still can’t live with the new notification tone on iOS 17 , then you can use some third party tool at your own risk. There are lots of paid tools available on the internet that you can use to change the default notification. But please note that these tool are not safe and your Apple warranty will terminate if you use such tools.
Apple have changed the iPhone default notification to new tone named “Rebound”
Unfortunately you can not as the Apple have not provided the feature yet to change the default notification tone.
In iOS 17 go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Ringer and Alerts and drag the volume slider to the level you want it at
Because apple changed it to new default tone “rebound” which is pleasant sounding and toned down.
