Don't.
If I mute the sound, I don't want to hear a thing, even if this
machine is going to blow up.
Should I ever encounter an app that does otherwise, it will land in
the trash faster than you can say 'mute'. ;-)
No it won't, since you ignored the 'machine is going to blow up' alert
(as you couldn't hear it) it blew up and you never had the chance to
find out which app at least gave you a moments chance to flee the
area :)
To be fair to the OP, if his app really is going to try to warn me of
impending injury or potential loss of life then I think it is silly to
argue that he shouldn't turn the sound up as loud as it can go and
start telling me to run. I think you too (or at least your family)
would be glad of such a thing too. However, I suspect he wants to turn
the sound up for something far less important in the grand scheme of
things, so probably shouldn't do it.
