"Since Teams was introduced to us for use, the notification sound, that continuous "ding," can be changed to something more delicate or something that sounds a bit more pleasant? I have to live with the only sound notification Teams has, because Microsoft lacks imagination and forgot that not everyone who uses Teams may like the same sound, that annoying "ding" which after a few hours becomes like a hammer hitting your head."

The latest version of NEW TEAMS, lets you change the notification sound. There's not a lot to choose from, but at least we're not stuck with the default now.

    Dear Microsoft Feedback Team,

    I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express a concern regarding Microsoft Teams, specifically regarding its notification sounds. As an active user of Teams, I greatly appreciate the platform's myriad of features and its role in facilitating efficient communication and collaboration. However, there is one aspect that significantly impacts my user experience: the default notification sound.

    While I understand the intention behind the current notification sound, I must emphasize that it has proven to be quite discomforting. Personally, it causes me discomfort and even headaches upon prolonged exposure. This is not a minor inconvenience, but rather a genuine issue that affects my productivity and well-being while using the platform.

    In today's digital landscape, where user customization is increasingly valued and expected, it surprises me that Microsoft Teams lacks the option to personalize notification sounds. Many other communication software, both enterprise-level and consumer-oriented, offer this simple yet invaluable feature. Given the prevalence of customizable notification sounds in modern applications, I believe it is imperative for Microsoft Teams to catch up and provide users with similar flexibility.

    Enabling customization for notification sounds in Microsoft Teams would not only enhance the user experience but also demonstrate a commitment to meeting the diverse needs and preferences of your user base. This feature would empower users to tailor their Teams experience according to their individual preferences, thereby increasing satisfaction and usability.

    I urge you to prioritize the implementation of customizable notification sounds in Microsoft Teams. I am confident that this relatively straightforward enhancement will yield significant benefits for users, including myself, and contribute to the overall improvement of the platform. By listening to user feedback and addressing this concern, Microsoft can further solidify Teams' position as a leading communication and collaboration tool in today's digital landscape.

    Thank you for considering my feedback and for your ongoing efforts to enhance Microsoft Teams. I eagerly await the implementation of customizable notification sounds and look forward to experiencing an improved user experience on the platform.

    Because I want to hear the phone calls. I just don't want to hear "ping, ping, ping, ping" from people incapable of sending more than a few words in one message.

    why don't you disable the sound?Image

    Unfortunately this no longer works. Got an update to Teams with a brand new horrible sound, and checked my sound settings only to find the original notification is still there, so it's no longer getting its sound from the same place. Is there a way to fix this update and revert the program to using the windows sound setting? I tried in Teams settings to change it to Windows settings there but all it did was change the visual pop up and put two notification sounds on top of each other.

    I can understand you concern. Currently the Teams system is set to be, only Android mobile devices are able to choose what type of sound plays for notifications.

    I would like to invite you to report it at the feedback portal link here, https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/f... ​or you can click on Help (from Teams) > Suggest a feature.

    Regards,

    Suganya
