Notification Sounds and Alert Sounds in One Place

Every pad on this notification soundboard is a sound you've heard a thousand times: the pop of a new message, a two-tone chime, a glass ping, a ding sound effect and the notification noise that makes a whole room check their pockets. Press a button and it plays straight away, with nothing to load. The sounds are grouped the way you'd look for them, from notification sounds and text message tones to phone ringing, alarms, alert sounds and a few funny ones. Tap the same button again to stop it.

iPhone, Samsung, WhatsApp and Discord Notification Sounds

The notification sounds people search for most are the ones on their own phones. The iPhone notification sound and the Samsung notification sound are both here, along with the WhatsApp notification, the Discord ping, a Snapchat message, the Messenger pop and an email notification. The old ICQ "uh oh" is on the board for anyone who remembers it, and so is a game notification from the streets of a certain open-world city.

Text Message Sounds and Message Tones

A text message sound is the quickest way to make someone look at their phone. Pick a clean text tone, the squeeze of an SMS, the double beep of an old phone SMS or a bird chirp for a softer message tone. For a laugh, a voice shouts "You got a message!" or whispers that someone just texted back.

Phone Ringing Sounds and Ringtones

The phone ringing sound comes in every style: an old telephone ring sound with a real bell, the classic brick-phone ringtone, the iPhone ringtone and a trap remix of it, a cat ringtone, a Messenger ringtone and a Snapchat call. Our own ringtones run from boom bap, drill and trap to reggae, rock, R&B, k-pop and a spooky line, plus a phone vibrate for the buzz on the table. When nobody picks up, a voice yells "Pick up the phone!"

Alarm Sounds, Alert Sounds and Emergency Alerts

Alarms and timers cover the morning: a digital alarm, a kitchen timer, a reminder bell, a low battery warning and a smoke alarm beep. For something louder, the emergency alert sound is the harsh tone phones blare in a real warning, and there's a danger alarm, a stealth game alert, police, ambulance and fire truck sirens, censor beeps and an airport chime. Turn the volume down before you press the emergency alert sound.

Funny Notification Sounds

Swap a ding for something sillier: a cat meow, a duck quack, a cha-ching cash register, a bike bell or a game console starting up. A deadpan robot announces "one new notification" and a cartoon voice sings "ding ding". The doorbell and a knock at the door round it off, and they fool people every time. For more sound effects, open the full soundboard.
