Customize notifications for a contact
Notifications that you customize for contacts override the notification settings for profiles and apps. For example, if sound
is turned on for phone notifications for a contact but the sound is turned off for the phone, the phone still rings when the
contact calls you.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2.
Tap Settings > Notifications.
3. At the bottom of the Notifications screen, tap Contact Notifications.
4.
Tap .
5. Tap a contact.
6. Do any of the following:
• Tap Phone Calls.
• Tap Email Messages.
• Tap BBM.
• Tap Text Messages.
• Tap Other Messaging, which includes apps such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and more.
7. Do one of the following:
• Turn off the All Notifications switch.
• Change the Sound, Ringtone, Vibrate, LED, or Instant Previews settings.
Note: If you set any of the drop-down lists to Profile Setting, the sound, tone, vibrate, or LED settings reflect what is
set in the active profile. If you make any changes to the drop-down lists, these changes override the settings in the
active profile.
Contacts that you set customized notifications for are listed on the Contact Notifications screen.
Customize notifications for an app
You can set a customized notification for an app and set that customized notification as the default setting for that app in
all of the notification profiles. Customized notifications for apps override the notification settings for profiles, but don't
override the customized notification settings for contacts.
Note: The Silent profile overrides all other settings and the BlackBerry device remains quiet, even if you set customized
notifications for an app.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2.
Tap Settings > Notifications.
3. Tap a profile.
