The volume is determined by the sound volume setting on your phone.
Perhaps his sound files are louder to start with than others, but I find
that if I set the sound volume under settings to 45 percent, it is a nice
level for everything for me and I can still hear VoiceOver when the chimes
are going off.
Now, for some who might be hard of hearing, that might not work.

Hi Kawal

that would be a lot harder to do because the sound is played by the
notification system of the OS and my application is not "asked" by the OS at
what volume to play the sounds.

I would probably have to include sets of sounds recorded at low, medium and
high volumes and give users that choice. It would make the size of the app
bigger but it might achieve the desired result?

thanks for your feedback,

Riccardo

Hello Riccardo.





Is it also possible to have a volume button as well because when I listen to
a book or something, Big Ben drowns out the voice but it does not drown out
Voice Over.

Hi Kawal





yes, I intend to do this, i.e. give you the choice of hear just the hour and
optionally also the quarters.





I hope to do this in the next few weeks, thanks for suggesting it.





Cheers,


Riccardo

Hello.





I only want to hear the hourly chimes and not the quarter chimes.  My sounds
are on however.  At present, I can hear nothing as I've selected the hourly
chimes only.  If I zselected the quarterly chimes, I will hear the quarterly
chimes and the hourly chimes.  I want the hourly chimes only.  Is this
possible for you to do?





I was the person who heard some chimes on You Tube as I thought they were
your chimes but apparently not as I know some one wrote to you by the name
of Richard Turner.  I am a voice over user as I'm visually impaired.  I hope
you know about Voice Over on the Apple devices.

Hello Kawal





if you turn the chimes off, Big Ben will make no sound at all, this is not a
bug, it's a feature.


Another user has now asked if I can separate the choice of hearing the sound
on the hour from hearing it also every quarter hour, is this perhaps what
you are trying to do?





Thanks for your feedback,





Riccardo

Hello.





I have just purchased Big Ben from the App Store.





So far, Big Ben is not working even though sounds is turned on but the
quarterly chimes is off. Please could you investigate as there may be a bug
in the software.  Please get it fixed soon as I paid 0.69p for it.





Thanks very much.





Kawal.
