    grindr has a custom notification noise? isn’t that indiscreet for an app like that?

      Yeah I don’t know any apps that have custom notifications out of the box these days, apart from Messenger. It’s too convenient just to use the operating system’s API and default to the user’s default sound.

        I don’t know if there’s some way to override/customise the notification sounds on Android on per-app basis. At one point in history I wanted Twitter to go [random bird noises] and Reddit to go “Le.” but since I don’t use either of them anymore I really didn’t investigate this further.

          In WhatsApp you can set custom notification sounds, I believe it even supports notification sounds on a per-contact basis. So safe to say you can do it as an app developer.
