All my alerts are the same, FB, twitter, email. I just wondering if I can change my mention sound alert on my twitter?

Thanks

Good question....I have my twitter notification set to the "tweet" sound...but it never makes that sound, it makes the same sound as the voicemail sound.

If you go into Settings>sounds> you'll find the twitter option.

Let me know if your sounds change or not?

I have set mine as "tweet" but it doesn't make that noise. Well it does but only for when I send a email or post a picture on twitter from using my photo library?!

The "tweet" sound setting is only for when you post something to Twitter. It is not the notification sound when a new messag eis received. Currently, there doesn't seem to be any way to change the notification sound.

I post a lot of things to twitter and have yet to ever hear the tweet sound when doing so.

I think the developer sets the sounds for notifications. I know the ESPN ScoreCenter app plays THE signature ESPN jingle when a notification comes up.

This is correct. There is no way to change the sounds that the app provides. The 'Tweet' sound option in settings only applies to when you SEND a tweet FROM iOS (not from IN the twitter app)
