Alarm notification sound

Can I assign a specific ringtone sound to different notifications in the app? 

I'd like to give my doorbell camera it's own unique ringtone sound so I know when I get an motion alert notification.

@cyoung2203 Short answer, for now, is no.  This has been requested before.

Are there any plans to update the app to allow this?  If so, is there an estimated delivery date?

You can with Android, iOS no.

You need to do it yourself though.

Using other apps like Tasker and plugins (autonotification) or Macrodroid app perhaps & etc. Play store.

There may be a little bit of latency. Those programs can intercept the notifications and recognize words like "motion detected".

So, SS camera motion is detected, SS sends a notification, when received, other apps intercepts notification and looks for words, "motion detected" for example. Or other words.

Activates the profile in other apps, and runs a task, play this MP4 or ringtone on my phone. Stop after so many seconds.

Ai can help you build these profiles and tasks, if needed. Chatgpt, Grok, Gemini etc.

In the end, it’s your home and your safety. Take control — or keep hoping a half-baked cloud company adds the features you paid for. Up to you.
