NOTIFICATION TONES

Since IOS 17 we are not allowed to change the notifications tone, especially for third-party apps. The default tone is very quiet. For example: Blink app sends notifications whenever a security camera is activated. But with the default tone being so low, the alert can barely be heard, this makes no sense. I would like Apple update the software so that we can choose what tone is the best for any app.

iPhone SE, iOS 17

IOS 17 notifications tone Since updating to ios17 My tone for notifications has become very quiet and the vibration is different so I am not able to hear or feel them. And I do not see anyway to set them back to the tritone….is there a way to reset this or go back to the old iOS? I need to get my notifications and not being able to hear them is a huge problem.

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
