Teams Android - Any way to change the notification sound?
- Jan 10, 2021
Hi there
Firstly, I own a OnePlus so there might or might not be feature/step differences.
Open Teams App -> Settings -> Notifications -> General activity -> Chats -> Chats (again) -> Advanced options -> Sound -> Choose your pick!
I hope this helps since I am a year and a month late to this post.
Hi Mike. On my Android (v9) I do this by going to Settings > Apps & Notifications > Teams > Notifications, and then by clicking on the relevant Teams feature. Hope it works for you, too. //Magnus
CoachOffice365 That page lets me turn notification on or off for various things, but I don't see anywhere I can tell Teams to use a specific sound different than every other app that gives me notifications.

Kelemvor333 Ok, I see. What if you click on the specific feature you want to change the sound for (in that list where you feel you are stuck)? I am able to do that, e.g. for Chats, and I then get to set the notification sound. Does this work for you?

CoachOffice365Yes, I can do that individually but what I was hoping to do is change All of Teams so that every notification from Teams would the same sound and have that sound be different from the 'default' sounds that is used for calendar reminders, game update, and everything else.
E.g. I can go into my SMS app and change the notification sound so that every text I get uses sound XYZ instead of the 'default notification sound' that is built into Android.
So yes, I can go through all those options under Apps | Teams | Notifications and change them all to a different sound, but there should be somewhere within Teams that I can set the default sound for Teams which would affect all of those individual settings at once.

Kelemvor333 Ok, I see. I don't think that is possible, but let's hope someone else can prove me wrong. Cheers.
