Maybe it's because I'm not really a smart phone person... I got all notifications turned off, even on my lock screen. The only sound it makes is when someone calls me or texts me. Regarding media, I have an old TV, it's not smart, so I don't actually need it. Reagarding the phone missing, this rarely happens and I usually just tell my wife to call my phone.
I oddly have notifications pop up on the screen, but almost always have my sound/ringer off, lest it get loud at work, or while my kid is trying to sleep. I can’t do dumb tvs, since streaming is required (I mean anything not connected to like an Apple TV, or chrome cast or whatever). And my phone vibrating from a call isn’t loud enough for my wife calling it to be heard, but the ping will sound regardless of whether or not it’s on silent.
