Hello!
In the phones notifications settings, its as follows:
If I set the notification style to silent, it automatically turns it back to sound as soon as the 1st message comes through and so the phone vibrates.
As for the whatsapp app settings, its all "silent, off, no popup, no light" for groups and messages.
This is the issues Ive been having with the whatsapp app.
There's another with the gmail app too. Its not refreshing and getting new mails as soon as I receive them. It just randomly refreshes whenever its in the mood.
Thanks in advance!
Hi
Didnt find exactly what you asked for.
The pic is the options in the Apps > Whatsapp menu.
As for the Gmail, I haven found anything much of a help, just some users saying it started working for them after a force stop of the gmail app and then reboot the phone. Did it but didnt help for me. App is still not getting new emails as soon as they come.
@Hafiz1 My bad - sorry about that!
With a bit more time to play around after I got home, I couldn't find a direct way to stop the override from happening either. But it might be worth exploring Do Not Disturb mode to see if you can mute all notifications (Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb > Hide Notifications. Also, you can Allow Exceptions to customise DND Mode; allowing calls, messages etc.) This thread about notification sounds still happening in DND mode on the S10 has some tips and info that might be useful in doing that too.
Regarding the Gmail app: I've come across some instances from users where adding the relevant Gmail address to the stock email app worked in getting the Gmail app to refresh quicker.
I encountred similar issues with my Galaxy Note 10 plus running Android 10. I got reply from WhatsApp support as following.
