Notification sounds!

Is there a way to add sound effect when there’s new notification on inactive page?
Fun fact - sounds are very powerful tool to develop user addiction! :smile: Science dudes says that people gets dopamine release when they hear sound of new incoming message. Brain reacts on it as on reward. This specially works great on kids! :laughing: So whaddya say, let’s turn some kids into dopamine junkies while they’re young, as they do in tobacco industry?

If it was optional it might be a good idea.

At home I don’t care if there are beeps, buzzes, or Bohemian Rhapsody coming out of the speakers.

But for those in quieter places - school, library, work etc. the dopamine rush they get might not be from pleasure.

This is probably plugin territory. I’m personally not fond of any sounds since they interfere with my youtube habits. Especially when I have it cranked up due to listening to a soft-spoken video and then hear a massively-loud ding that scares me into the ceiling.

I DO however suggest Google chrome notifications. I know NodeBB has that option. But again, probably plugin material.

That would be from adrenaline. Dopamine, if they have ADD, heh.

It should be very soft sound like in Skype, not loud and annoying one like in ICQ. I like sound on vk.com, it doesn’t explode your ears even if your volume is high.

+1 for making it optional.

Personally, I hate unnecessary sounds, and far from getting me addicted to a site, they’d be far more likely to drive me away for ever if I had no obvious way to disable them.

is there any chance this feature becomes alive? especially with great experience of discourse for mobile and with previous works on the feature.

I am groaning quite a lot at this, I get that some people like this but noise can be so so distracting and evil.

I am not :fire: against adding this as an option default off… but … groan groan groan at wanting to add this. If we have a few customers nag as for this I guess we will add it to the roadmap.

you are right, a sound for every notification can be really distracting!

but what about a once-twice beep on a daily basis? something like the digest email which works great for desktop users:

once a day mobile-user hears a sound saying discourse! which reminds him that today he hasn’t gone to the forum. it is optional and the timing of the beep can also be tuned by the user himself.

Hola, me gustaría que esto fuera una función. Solo agrega un interruptor para activarlo/desactivarlo.

+1, quienes no quieran el sonido pueden desactivarlo.

Esto ya es posible gracias a nuestra aplicación compatible con PWA. Acabo de personalizar el sonido de notificación de Meta en mi teléfono.

  1. Mantén pulsado el icono de la aplicación Meta.
  2. Toca el icono :information_source:.
  3. Toca Notificaciones.
  4. Toca General.
  5. Toca Sonido y elige tu favorito.

¡Hola, primero que nada, ¡feliz cumpleaños! :birthday:

Lo he probado en mi Huawei Mate 20 Pro con Chrome, Brave, Firefox y la aplicación generada a través de estos navegadores. Además del icono de “Eliminar” que aparece tras mantener presionado el icono de la aplicación en la pantalla, no he encontrado ningún otro icono como los tuyos.

¿Será que estoy haciendo algo mal?

Intenta ir a Configuración → Aplicaciones → Meta (o tu sitio)

Luego sigue esto:

¡Hola, gracias por tu pronta respuesta! He seguido tu guía, configurado el sonido y permitido todas las notificaciones, pero es extraño que aún no reciba notificaciones de sonido en las pruebas. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Actualmente estoy usando un Huawei Mate 20 Pro.

Bueno, funciona perfectamente en Android puro con el lanzador Pixel, así que debe ser algo roto en la personalización de Huawei :thinking:

En cualquier caso, no hay nada que podamos hacer, ya que la función funciona como se esperaba.
