Weekly poll: do you still have your ringer on or is your phone on vibrate all the time?

10 August 2025
Companies still put a lot of effort into making bespoke ringtones for their phones - but actually hearing a phone ring is becoming a rare occurrence.

I am old school enough to continue changing manually. And finding a polyphonic ringtone based on a song i like is just worth it

    If more people say they prefer keeping their phones on silent mode, I’m guessing Apple will use this survey to remove the option to set ringtones altogether. They’ll sell their dumb watches separately so you could get notifications and call it innovation. “We’re preventing noise pollution!” Of course, the others will follow 😂😂

      Vibrate all the time. Recently switched to Vivo x fold 5 and its vibration motor is very weak. :(

        Well... Vibration in church or bank, ringer at home or market. Though the urge to totally use vibration is always there but then you miss calls. Using bundle by bundle by burna boy as current ringtone.

          On when not at work or not in places where it's customary to not have a phone ringing. Ringtones are one of the alternatives in the stock library, to differentiate my phone from others.

            I leave sound on for regular use, vibrate when at work or places where sound is prohibited.
            Ringtone is a song that i like at the time (Soaked Shy Smith, for now)
            And notifications sounds is one of OneUI's default (Telegraph) just hoping no one else uses that sound too.
