Notifications & Focus2

Turn Call Vibration On or Off

On many Oppo phones, the handset gives a short vibration pulse the moment you pick up or hang up a call, even with the ringer silent. If that buzz feels unnecessary or startles you in quiet settings, it comes from a dedicated toggle in the calling settings, not from your general vibration or Do Not Disturb setup.

Change Notification Volume

When notifications on your Oppo phone are too loud or barely audible, the culprit is usually the separate Notifications volume slider, not the ringtone or media volume. This affects app alerts and incoming text messages, which run on their own volume channel in Coloros. Turning up the ringtone alone often has no effect on this.

Turn Notification Badges On or Off Per App

If notification badges do not show up on some app icons on your Oppo home screen, the per-app Badge toggle is likely switched off. ColorOS only displays a small dot instead of a number, and each app has its own switch tucked inside the notification settings. Missing dots often get mistaken for a wider notification bug when it is really just this one setting.

Block Calls and Notifications in Game Space

When you are deep into a match, an incoming call notification can pull you straight out of the game or slow down your device. On Oppo phones this happens because Game Space treats calls and notifications the same way it treats other interruptions, unless you tell it otherwise. Only apps added to the Game Space launcher are affected by this behavior.

Turn Banner Notifications On or Off Per App

If banner notifications keep popping up for apps you would rather have silent, or a chat app stopped showing previews at the top of the screen at all, the setting sits inside the individual app notification controls, not in a general notification menu. On Oppo phones running Coloros, banners can be switched off or back on separately for every single app, and in some apps even per notification category.
