2. Bring up an alert and after a set amount of time without the user responding to it, then start making things louder.

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.
