Buzzing, beeping, and ringing, what to do when WhatsApp is telling you what’s up.
Your phone is probably constantly buzzing, beeping, and vibrating because of various alerts that pop up from other apps on your phone. It can be hard to know which alerts are coming from where. WhatsApp will let you customize the notifications and alerts you receive so it’s easy to know who is contacting you without even having to look at their name. You can change the notifications and alerts for individual contacts, all messages, all group messages, or all calls that come through WhatsApp.
