notification sound
Phone's attention tone
A notification sound is a brief audio signal alerting you to a message, update, or event on a device.
Phones, computers, and apps use distinctive notification sounds to grab attention without requiring you to look at the screen: I heard the notification sound but ignored it.
Users often customize these or silence them entirely.
