No sound from push notifications

alex.vasenin says:
For quite a long time, I haven't been getting sound from push notifications that I receive on the RTM iOS app. I'm getting the notifications themselves pretty reliably, but they come silently and I can easily miss one, so I cannot rely on them and have to set up separate alarms in my Apple Watch Alarm app to not miss important stuff
.
I contacted RTM support 4 months ago, tried everything they suggested, and after substantial back and forth, they were able to reproduce the problem on a test account. 3 months have passed since then and nothing has happened—the notifications are still silent. I regularly ask them for updates, but there aren't any. I guess they gave very low priority to this bug, so I decided to draw public attention to it as this issue is important to me.

Does anybody have the same problem (no sound in notifications)?

P.S. I've been using RTM for about 20 years now and I've been Pro continuously since 2007, and now I'm starting to worry that my beloved service is going off the rails.

Hi alex.vasenin,
Sorry this has continued! I just wanted to acknowledge that I haven't forgotten about this and hope to get it resolved for you soon.

If others are having problems with push notifications, please let us know! 💙

Thank you, Andrew! You are very helpful and always promptly respond to my messages. That said, I expect the resolution of core app issues in reasonable time (especially if you're able to reproduce them on your side).

The sound is back! I can finally able to regain the trust in the service that is really important for me! Keep up the good work, Andrew!

P.S. I managed to find the first welcome email from RTM. I received it 01 Nov 2006.
