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.

    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?

    Are posts with actual substance allowed here?

    Agreed.

    For me its as simple as keeping the ringer on at night for emergencies, but turn off texts for my idiot friend who sends his ponderings while on the crapper at 6 am, central time.

    What I can’t believe is that there is still no indicator on the screen when the silence switch is turned on. So I turn it on, and forget it’s turned on!

    So is this is why I’m not able to have my ringtone only vibrate and sound notifications for other alerts?

    I’ve had any noise turned off for the last 19 years of owning a phone, any phone. I still to this day think it’s weird that people need their shit on full volume going off all the time.
