Change iPhone sounds and vibrations

In Settings , change the sounds iPhone plays when you get a call, text, voicemail, email, reminder, or other type of notification.

On supported models, you feel a tap—called haptic feedback—after you perform some actions, such as when you touch and hold the Camera icon on the Home Screen.

Set sound and vibration options

  1. Go to Settings  > Sounds & Haptics.

  2. To set the volume for all sounds, drag the slider below Ringtone and Alert Volume.

  3. To set the tones and vibration patterns for sounds, tap a sound type, such as ringtone or text tone.

  4. Do any of the following:

    • Choose a tone (scroll to see them all).

      Ringtones play for incoming calls, clock alarms, and the clock timer; text tones are used for text messages, new voicemail, and other alerts.

    • Tap Vibration, then choose a vibration pattern, or tap Create New Vibration to create your own.

You can also change the sounds iPhone plays for certain people. Go to Contacts , tap a person’s name, tap Edit, then choose a ringtone and text tone.

Turn haptic feedback off or on

  1. On supported models, go to Settings  > Sounds & Haptics.

  2. Turn System Haptics off or on.

    When System Haptics is off, you won’t hear or feel vibrations for incoming calls and alerts.

Tip: If you’re not receiving incoming calls and alerts when you expect them, open Control Center, then check whether Do Not Disturb is on. If the Do Not Disturb button is highlighted, tap it to turn off Do Not Disturb. (When Do Not Disturb is on, the Do Not Disturb icon also appears in the status bar.)
