Can You Change Notification Sounds On iPhone?

Android phones generally offer significantly more customization options, but Apple has also started adding support for some of those features recently. One of the latest customization features on an iPhone is support for home screen widgets, although the process is a lot more convoluted on iOS compared to Android.

On iPhone, a user can customize nearly all notification sounds, including text message tones, calendar alarms, and voicemail alerts. Users can also change notification tones for Apple-specific apps like FaceTime and Mail.
