Should you wish to re-enable these notifications, you can easily turn them on again by tapping on the toggle switch.
b) Change notification sounds
You can also customize the sound of the notifications by tapping on ‘Notification tone’ and choose a sound from the available options. You can also choose to use your device’s default notification sound.

d) Notification channels
WeChat provides separate notification channels for various types of notifications, like message notifications, call notifications, and the reminder tone. You can modify each channel’s settings (e.g., turn on/off, change vibration or sound) by clicking on the relevant notification channel. You can also toggle ‘Lock screen’ and ‘Status bar’ options based on your preference.
e) Priority and interruption settings
WeChat also allows you to set the priority level for message and call notifications. You can tap on ‘Priority’ and choose between urgent, high, medium, and low. You can also choose to allow interruptions from WeChat notifications or turn them off completely by tapping on ‘Interruptions.’ If you choose to enable interruptions, you can choose to let the notification sound and vibration overrides your Do Not Disturb mode setting.
