Phone calls lost to loud noise may result in missed opportunities that your small business can't afford. When the sounds at work climb so high that it's difficult to distinguish phone rings from the clamor, rely on your eyes as well as your ears to recognize incoming calls on your iPhone. Pair your iPhone's ringer with strobes of light from the LED (Light Emitting Diode) flash on your iPhone's camera.

1. Select the "Settings" option from your iPhone's menu, and then tap on the "General" heading inside of the Settings menu.

2. Thumb down to the bottom of the General menu and then select its "Accessibility" option.

3. Set the Hearing section's "LED Flash for Alerts" slider to "On" to set your iPhone's calls and notifications to trigger bursts from your camera's flash.

1. 1

   Open your iPhone's Settings. It's a gray app on the home screen that contains an image of gears (⚙️).

2. 2

   Tap Notifications. It's near the top of the menu, next to a red icon containing a white square.

  I have done the steps but it doesn't work when I get a text. What could be the problem?

  It is not an app you download, it is a pre-Apple app you have when you buy the phone. But to do this, you would need to go into the "Settings" app.
