Join Thomas Domville as he explores the new feature in iOS 17.2. that allows you to modify the default notification alert.

Previously, users were restricted to Apple's default notification sound. However, with iOS 17.2, Apple has added a new \u201cDefault Alerts\u201d section in the \u201cSounds & Haptics\u201d settings. This feature enables you to choose the sound for all incoming notifications, except for texts, mail alerts, and calendar alerts, which already had customization options.

You now have the freedom to use any of the text tones as your notification sound. This is a major update for those who have always desired to choose a sound.

Here\u2019s a step-by-step guide on how to change your default notification sound:

Launch the Settings app.
\nSelect \u201cSounds & Haptics.\u201d
\nSelect \u201cDefault Alerts.\u201d
\nChoose your preferred text tone from the list.
\nEnjoy your new personalized notification sound!

You also have the option to alter the default haptic feedback. Apple made some adjustments to the default haptic alert in iOS 17, but now you can revert it or customize it if the update didn\u2019t quite meet your expectations.
