I had a text chain with support last night as well. With the new updates on iPhone, now the default camera notification is a simple quiet little bubble pop.  It is about half the volume of other sounds rendering the outside cameras useless in t

I spent several minutes on the phone with apple support and they tell me the 3rd party apps must fix this. My SimpliSafe is simply no good to me with this default sound. There needs to be a way to change the notification sound to something louder tha
