What do the sounds in Fallout Shelter mean?
In Fallout Shelter, the sounds are more than just background noise; they're clues! The sound of a bell means new dwellers are at your door, while a siren means your vault is under attack. A happy jingle? That's the sound of success, maybe a completed task or mission. So keep your ears open, it's how the game talks to you!

Loud alarm = BAD NEWS, like a disaster or attack. Cash register sound = Good news, like you've earned some caps or completed a quest. Basically, if it sounds scary, start prepping!
Don't read too much into it. Most sounds are just there to make the game feel alive. Like, yeah, alarms mean trouble, but not every sound is a deep mystery.
