Hey there, firefighters. π Here's what shipped this week:
π Customizable Alert Sounds & Volume#customizable-alert-sounds-and-volume
We know that one alert tone doesn't fit all situations β or all responders. Now you can personalize both how and how loudly FireHydrant gets your attention when paging you.
- Sound Customization
- Choose from a curated selection of notification sounds to match your preference
- Set custom volume levels for pages needing your attention
- Preview sounds and volume levels before selecting them
No more scrambling to adjust your phone's volume during an alert storm β customize your alert experience exactly how you want it, when you want it.
