Ness Apr 2023 3:39pm, 23 Apr 2023 30,729 posts	0 Ness Talking to my dad. He said What's that noise? So I explained it to him. Again. Yep! That's why I switched it off on my mum's phone when I visited last week. Save me having to drive over today.

Hanneke Apr 2023 3:48pm, 23 Apr 2023 102,632 posts	0 Hanneke I switched it off, so nothing happened and don't remember what I was doing. Mind, no phone signal here, so nothing happens here anyway. I use my phone over wifi.
Surrey Phil Apr 2023 3:54pm, 23 Apr 2023 9,303 posts	0 Surrey Phil I was on Fetch. I completely forgot about it and it made me jump.
Oranj Apr 2023 4:09pm, 23 Apr 2023 3,572 posts	0 Oranj My phone was in another room, so if it made a noise I didn't hear it (although I almost always have Do Not Disturb enabled, doubly so since I was finishing off a homework project this afternoon). I've just picked it up to find the alert message displayed, so that's something I suppose. I wonder if Do Not Disturb disables the noise?
Yorkshire Pie Apr 2023 4:13pm, 23 Apr 2023 15,163 posts	0 Yorkshire Pie No alert on our two personal phones. My work phone got it but it was upstairs and I didn't hear it.
