How to change notification sounds on Android – Easy Steps

Notifications on Android are a key part of the smartphone experience, and the sounds that accompany them are just as important. If you’ve been hearing notification sounds all day, you can improve those too. Here’s how to change notification sounds on Android.

Fortunately, it is very easy to change notification sounds on Android devices. Each phone or tablet will have its own default sounds, but you don’t need to use them. There are always a handful of sounds to choose from.

First, swipe down from the top of the screen once or twice and tap the gear icon to open the Settings menu.

In the settings, look for something like “Sound” or “Sound and vibration.” The name of the section will be different depending on the version of Android and the manufacturer of the device.

Then find “Notification sound” or “Default notification sound.” You may need to expand an “Advanced” section to find the option.

You will now see a list of notification sounds to choose from. Touch one of the sounds to play a preview. Again, this will be very different from device to device.

Usually there will be an option to use your own custom audio clips. Look for a “+” button. (Sometimes this will be in the “My Sounds” section).

Once you have found a sound you like, press “Save” or “Apply” to finish.
