The notification sound my Android device was making every time I received an email message was annoying. I had to change the ringtone. Here’s how it’s done.
Gmail App
- Open the “Gmail” app.
- Select the “Menu” button located at the upper-left corner.
- Choose “Settings“.
- Select the email address associated with the account for which you want to modify notifications.
- Select “Manage notifications“. Some versions may say “Inbox sound & vibrate“.
- Tap “Mail“.
- Choose “Sound“.
- Select the desired sound.
Stock Email App
- Open the “Email” app.
- Select the “Menu” button located at the upper-left corner.
- Choose “Settings“.
- Select the email address associated with the account for which you want to modify notifications.
- Do any of the following:
- Check “Email notifications” to enable notifications or uncheck it to disable all notifications.
- Select “Choose ringtone” to change the sound that plays when an email arrives.
- Check or uncheck “Vibrate” to enable or disable vibration when an email arrives.
FAQ
Why does nothing happen when I select “Sound” in step 7?
You are logged into the Android device as a user who doesn’t have access to change the sound. Switch over to the user that has access.
