blink app and all third party apps Notification Sound is now inaudible and dangerous After iOS 17 update, ALL third party apps sound notifications have changed to an inaudible, low muffled sound that is unchangeable. This is unacceptable. I have read on the comments boards and Apple's solution is to contact the third party APP. DO you want us to contact multiple third party apps to fix your error? Apple made the change to sound notifications in their code from iOS 16 and is responsible for fixing it back to the way it was. I use the sound notification for the Blink Security Camera APP and now I have an unsafe situation where I can't hear the notifications for the camera detecting movement and it is because Apple changed it to a unchangeable, un-hearable sound. Pleas help. Thanks and I know this was inadvertent and look forward to you fixing it. I absolutely do not want to go to Android because of this but it is a safety issue.

I have look up online for solutions and can't seems to find one. Is there a way to go back to IOS 16? IOS 17 is not good.

blink app notification sound unchangeable yet again in iOS 17.2 iOS 17 changed the Blink notification sound to 'Rebound' from 'Tri Tone' in October 2023. We all complained and Apple made third party Apps Notification sounds customizable! THanks. But, Now, after iOS 17.2, the Blink notification sound is again unchangeable and has changed to a different default tone which I can't find in either "Settings-Notification, or "Settings-Sounds and Haptics." And, it is again unchangeable. Please correct and I appreciate your iOS 17.2 modification THis is a safety concern as the Blink Camera Notification sound is a security concern

It’s never up to Apple to make changes (or “fixes”) to a third party app. Blink needs to make any changes that would allow it to be compatible with the iOS update. Please contact Blink customer support. They may have suggestions. This link may help:
