Apps' custom notification sounds 🔔

1. Automate Community
2. Tools

Set custom notification sounds & vibration for any app.

🔷How it works 🔷

Do you want some of your apps to notify with a unique ringtone, but neither their settings nor Android settings allow this? Although Automate can't *change* a ringtone for any app, there's still a workaround. You can mute this app's notification in Android settings, then use Automate to detect new notifications and play a sound/vibrate.

🔷 How to set up 🔷

1) Open Android settings and mute notifications of the desired app (do not turn them off, just set them silent).
2) Use this Flow to set a custom notification sound (and vibration pattern) for this app ("Ringtone: Add new").
3) Run this Flow ("-> ACTIVATE").

🔷 FAQ 🔷

1⃣ Can I turn off notification sound of this Flow's dialogs?
→ Yes, but in Automate it's user-dependent, devs can't do it for you. After installation of this Flow go to this Flow's settings* (click on its title) and choose any Notification channel that is silent. If you there aren't any then you have to create such channel in Automate settings.
(*You can also silence only specific [Dialog...] blocks - just edit the Flow and change channels directly in each [Dialog...] block.)

2️⃣ How to setup a custom vibration pattern?
→ Just setup a new custom ringtone, setting the vibration pattern is one of the steps. If you want to use some Automate's built-in patterns then you can preview them by starting Flow with "Settings: Test built-in vibration patterns". You can make also your very own custom pattern (advanced) — this Flow uses the Vibrate block, read it's description here https://llamalab.com/automate/doc/block/vibrate_start.html
