Push notification sounds

Okay, the one about the pants is quite funny, but Homer just screamed and I damn nearly fell off my chair in fright!


I do tend to like his notifications, but the scream was a little much. I haven't heard it since I updated out of the Halloween version. It does appear that some people are still getting some notifications related to Halloween. I remember this happening after the Whacking Day event. After a couple of days the WD notifications subsided, I assume the same will be true for the Halloween notifications. (Unless you haven't updated yet, in which case I imagine you'll keep getting them.)

    My parents have been visiting and my sound has been down, so I've yet to hear the pants one. I haven't liked the neighbor visit pop-ups, but maybe they won't be so bad now that I know they come with humorous sound bites.

    My husband got busy with work earlier this year and was unable to play for several days. Homer popped out the "Are you cheating on me with another game?" notification right in the middle of an important department head meeting.

    I updated yesterday. I've never heard the scream before. Also today I got 'Rather them than me! Oh wait, it is me!', which made me chuckle. My favourite is 'Puuuuush notification'. :lol:

    People never look at facts. He says "BETTER them than me, oh wait that was me".

    Pardon me for breathing. I only heard it once before so forgive me for not IMMEDIATELY committing it to memory.

    Go into the settings on your phone and turn off notifications, or just mute your phone at work (which is what I do).

    Or load the game, click the Build menu. On the right side you can click the "i" and turn off push notifications that way as well.

    EDIT for more info.

    apparently you were supposed to look at the facts. Listening was not required and looking would fail to give you this information.

    Or, go inte the build menu -> i and turn of sound for the app (the SFX one controls sound on notifications).
