Sounds & Ringtones
Use the ringer switch
Sliding the ringer switch off (red means off) not only turns off the ringer for
incoming phone calls, it also turns off system sounds like the Calendar
notifications and the camera shutter click when you take a picture. The
ringer switch does not affect music and video sound.
By default, when the ringer switch is off, you can still hear the Clock alarm. If
you want to change this setting so that turning off the ringer switch also
turns off the Clock alarm sound, go to Clock > Preferences. Under Ringer
Switch Off, change Play alarm anyway to No. If you set this option to No,
be sure to change it back to Yes the next time you set an alarm—otherwise,
you won’t hear the alarm if the ringer switch is off.
Set ringer switch settings
You can set how your smartphone treats system sounds and rings for
incoming calls when the ringer switch is off and when it is on.
