Customize Sound Notification
The sound you updated to during the week of March 6 is HORRIBLE. Please give us an option to change sounds for chat notifications the same way we can change sounds for the phone calls

Change the sound of calls and notifications is a great feature. My wife and I work at home and we both use Teams in work. Change the sound is important to differ who is called by their Coworkers easy. Thanks.

totally agree - Turn off the sound for chat and keep sounds for calls!

I think it used to be possible to have audio notifications on incoming calls, but not for incoming messages. I really hate missing calls because there is no sound, because I really hate the constant bleeping of my computer for every incoming message. Please give me the option to manage these separately.

I discovered that my iPad has a lovely tone for Teams alerts - so much nicer than Windows which is very obnoxious and annoying. Would love to be able to choose my own alert sound.

Please allow customizing all sounds. Default sounds are obnoxious to me and I need less intrusive sounds.

Please consider changing the notification tone for Chats. I keep missing chats because I simply can't hear the "Bloop" sound. Better yet, have several sounds for people to choose from, so they can use the sound that best suits them.

I can't believe we still can't customize sound notification.

Why we can change notification sound in mobile phone, but not in Windows 10?

PLEASE let us users change the notification sounds as we already can with the ringtone. That "pling" is annoying as ****. Traumatizing.

This is a must in this age of remote work. I work in the same room with my girlfriend and we constantly mixing up who is getting the call.

Allowing people to customize the sounds would help with multiple people working in close proximity. For example my wife and I both have to work from home sometimes. Since the sound cannot be changed if we both have stepped away we have no idea who's teams is going off. I imagine that if/when people return to normal offices this could be an issue as well. Two people who sit near each other would have no clue who's Teams was going off. Customizing sounds should not be so hard.

The chat notification sound is too quiet and cannot be heard in a moderately noisy room as mentioned by other commenters. Please allow us to customize it to something more appropriate.

I miss the taskbar icon blinking to alert me to a chat message waiting, as Skype did. I work in a noisy office and cannot hear the chat notification at all. We just switched a few days ago and I'm constantly missing notifications because I'm not always looking at my screen when a chat message comes through, so I miss the banner & pop up.

For me, the sound is quite annoying but the banner is fine. Most of the time, the banner is enough for me to know I'm needed while the sound is distracting.

If Teams is the replacement for Skype for Business then this really must be added. If someone on my team sends me a message on Teams, I often don't notice it. If they send the message over Skype I hear it and see it right away because the sound notification is much better and I can change it to something that I can hear and will get my attention.
