Hi there,

i use Sailfish X since a few days.

I first use a iPhone. In iOS there are 3 „sound types“.

Notification, Media Sound (Music, Videos) and Earphone.

But WhatsApp Messages in Sailfish just make a sound, if the mediasound is turned up.

Is this to everyone? How can i completely mute the phone?

I can change the ampience to „silent“, but theres just the Notification sound muted. Which is useful, but WhatsApp plays a tone. Cz the media-sound is still turned up.

Do I make anything false? Is there a simple trick?

Thanks in advance, Patrick.

try a trick: When you are in home screen, without anything play (like media/ on-line radio/ etc) and you press volume down button, you will see "Ring Volume" on the top of your screen, and a bar that shows you the level. Now, play a video / on-line radio, anything, and press the volume down. It will show you on top "Volume" and the level bar. If you press volume down button until it gets mute, you may silent the WhatsApp messages, and any other sound. Please let me know if it worked for you!

Hello, thanks. That worked, but I think that could be easier.
