    Do different apps have different notification sounds? I’m a vibrate only person but I thought a notification sound was a notification sound, not some custom ring tone.

      ig it depends on OS? like maybe on IOS apps can choose their own sound? i always had a system wide notification tone on android

        Android has a default notification sound, which you can change in the srttings, and most apps will not overwrite that. But apps have the option to have a different one. Snapchat for example has a custom one.

        It’s pretty surprising that an app like Grindr would make use of that option, I think they have a high amount of users that would like to avoid others knowing they use the app.
