Using different notification sounds for different events on your iPhone can be helpful when you want to be able to identify something that occurred on your device without looking at it. But if you dislike a sound, or if two different notification sounds are too similar to one another, then you might decide to change it.
The notifications sounds for most things on your iPhone can be modified, including the notification sound for calendar events on your iPhone. Our tutorial below will show you the steps that you need to take in order to start using a different sound for upcoming calendar events.
