So I'm on my laptop playing League with headphones on while I'm on iFunny in the comment section when the [fire] alarm-like sound started to sound. I looked down at my phone thinking it was a video, but I realized I was in the comment section so the sound couldn't have been coming from my phone. So I turned my phone off. I then look around in an attempt to find the source of the sound. I looked at the fire alarm in my room, but the alarm wasn't there (we needed to get new batteries). Then I looked at my DS and it wasn't coming from there or my laptop. So I grabbed my phone and put it to my ear. The sound was coming from it. I was afraid because my phone was off and it wasn't a notification sound. In fear that it might explode, I put it at a distance from me.

My best explanation for the sound was a fire alarm sound that kept repeating. (No it was not an amber alert noise either).

Why was my phone making that noise? Should I be worried?

Extra Info: I have an iPhone 6 and it was not charging when I was using it.

turn the ringer down and shut your phone down.

You did not tell us where you are located. It is likely an Amber Alert was issued.

Hi so it has been programmed in to make that sound.
