Separate app sound...

[ParadroidX]

Really dumbfounded on Samsung's decisions to remove features or bury them deep into different settings after every update. It's pretty funny to see me check for my phone when it's an actual text message but its just email with the same notification sound now. If somebody could point me in the right direction to remedy this I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm sorry, what are you looking to remedy? You want to change a particular notification sound?

Hi thanks for responding. So after when you I update I noticed that all my apps now now I have the same notification sound whether it's before there was a separate notification sound for each app. That option appears to have been missing with one ui8

Make sure notification categories are turned on under settings > notifications > advanced settings. Then go into the individual app's notification settings to make sure they're set the way you want.

Oh okay so they did change it. Okay I'll try that appreciate the help🙏

No problem. Notification categories were added some time ago. Might've even been One UI 6 or earlier.

Nope the separate sound is now missing from app options. I figured once I toggled the separate app notifications in advance settings it would appear under the app settings but it's not.

Try restarting your phone. It might need that to have the notification categories show up. If that doesn't do it, clear cache & data for the app in question.

Also make sure you wipe device cache in recovery. See this post for steps on how to do that:
