Is there any way to change notification alert sound

@RTW4895

Thanks for the inquiry.

The Roku Smart Home app notification alert sound cannot be changed.

Thanks,
Danny

This should be changed to be able too as I get notifications all day that use same notifications sound so I miss when someone hits the doorbell button...Ring has this feature you guys should look into this.....major downfall

A unique ring tone for activity and for doorbell should be a high priority update.  Today's phones give us notifications all day long that mostly nonsense.  We need to know when something real happens.  I know when I get txt, an email and I need to know when someone's on my porch. (!)

Please make this happen.

Thank you

That is absolutely bonkers! The current sound they just changed to, is ridiculous. Who chooses this stuff? Even Wyze, who Roku is just a rebranded imitation, has 4 you can choose from, but of course those are extremely poor by anyone's standard, but at least a person can differentiate between cameras when you have a mix of Wyze and Roku. 

Come on guys, you're supposed to be the experts in app programming, come out of the dark ages.

That’s crazy. I might dump Roku if I can’t change the tone. It’s the same tone as every other notification I get. I’m being stalked by someone who has threatened to kill me and I was hoping I could set a unique tone to alert me when there’s someone at my door. Please add this feature

I agree with everyone else that you should be able to change it.  The notification sound is the same as my texts.  I work in a warehouse and I was hoping I could differentiate between texts from my customers and drivers at my docks.

This is very disappointing.  I got the Roku because it's a trusted name, didn't break the bank, and is generally easy to use.

At least I was able to change the chime to be different and loud enough to hear over forklifts.

This little alert sound is not loud enough!! I have my ex threatening me and I have these cameras but the alert is just a little sound that barely gets my attention let alone wake me up. I should be able to adjust the sounds just like my phone. Louder alert at night when I’m asleep please change this. It’s ridiculous!!

How did you change the chime and make it louder? Is that for cameras?
