Apple refuses to separate sound controls. Alarms, texts, system sounds, screenshot noises, camera shutter, call ringer are all attached.

Why can’t I turn off screenshot noises without risking missed calls, wtf why is this even a connected concern??

    Media

    Calls (including 3rd party)

    Messages (including 3rd party)

    Notifications

    Effects

    All Apple needs is to separate these. It can’t be that difficult.

    That was the same for me as well on samsung, only difference was that ringtone and notifications are separate things

    As a brand new iPhone user as of 3 weeks ago, this is so infuriating. It’s such a simple idea and would be so easy to implement, so why has apple not done this?

    Definitely android does this better and i found it very annoying when I switched to iPhone this year

    I can’t have the phone vibrate, but make no sound when I get a notification, without that affecting other system sounds?

    Why don’t text message notifications automatically mute while I’m on a phone call? Why do I need my eardrum blown out by a text message ding while on a phone call?

    I never use the ringer because I always have my AirPods or Apple Watch with me. I get notifications on both.

    Yes it’s silly!! My ringer volume is tied to the volume on the Facebook app. WHY?! It makes no sense.

    I’m one of the weird ones that hate my phone making any kind of noise, so this lack of feature doesn’t bother me.

    Ever since I bought a watch that vibrates my wrist for alerts, I’ve turned off any kind of noise. I don’t need alerted twice.
