PLANNER SOUNDS

Hi all

Every time I click a task as Completed, it 'pings', why? and how can i turn this off?!

 

Recently this has been happening but never used to.

 

Thanks

    Same problem here. "Mute tab" resolved it, but a loud and hearty BOO at whoever thought it was a good idea to turn on sounds unexpectedly in the first place. Maybe focus efforts on features people actually want!? Planner isn't a slot machine...

    Hello, I had the same problem. The "mute tab" is not a feature of Planner but of whatever browser you are using. In chrome, right click on the tab with Planner and select "Mute Site". This turns off all sound. However, this needs to be redone after every launch ... not sure if there is a way to set this by default. There should simply be an option in Planner ...

    Complete idiocy. Add a loud notification tone that can't be turned off. Complete utter stupidity.

    This happens in the Planner for Teams app as well. No way to turn it off. It sounds so unprofessional, and the only way to stop it is to turn off ALL sound from my computer. Deleted, does that seem like a good situation to you?
