Sobre este som

Play the ICQ Uh Oh button, download the MP3, or set it as a ringtone. The 3.24-second chat alert adds a retro message cue to edits and group chats.

This sound is the famous ICQ notification clip: a short digital alert followed by a voice saying "uh oh." It has a very late-90s, early-internet feel, instantly bringing back old desktop chat rooms and message popups. The mix of a simple electronic cue and the spoken phrase makes it both funny and memorable. In videos, it usually signals an unexpected DM, a chaotic group chat moment, or a retro tech reference. Even people who never used ICQ often recognize it as a classic instant messaging sound.

Dica profissional

Set the clip slightly below dialogue so the spoken uh oh stays clear without taking over. Leave a brief pause before it, then chain a classic error sound after the reply; rapid repeats flatten the awkward-message punch.

Download the MP3 once to keep it available offline, then import it into your editor, soundboard, or phone settings. It can serve as a ringtone or notification tone, though the spoken ending may be more noticeable than a simple chime. Keep its level below dialogue and watch for competing alerts in the mix. For a modern contrast, follow it with a Discord notification.
