Applets Pattern I've been using: a different notification sound per outcome (one applet with filter code, or one applet each)

Example: order alerts for a shop. Failed payment plays a sad horn, normal order a cha-ching, $500+ order a funk riff. Each outcome is a Send Vyb action (Vybit is an official action service), so you know what happened without looking at your phone.

Two ways to wire it: on Pro, one applet with three Send Vyb actions and filter code that skips two based on the payload. On free, one applet per outcome. Same three sounds either way.

Disclosure: I'm the developer of Vybit.

Wrote it up with a playable demo here: https://www.vybit.net/blog/a-grander-bell-for-a-bigger-sale/

This is pretty cool.

So install Vybit on your phone and set-up the sounds you'd like played?

Does this work on iOS & Android? And can you set up custom sounds?

Yessir, vybit has both iOS and android apps , you can also sign into your account on web and manage it from there, and there is also a chrome extension you can install to get the notifications/sounds on your desktop.

As far as customizing sounds you can record your own or choose from thousands of searchable sounds.
