There use to be a way to set notifications for specific apps. Now I can only set notifications for everything. Why was that option taken away?

@userP0qAQM7nfN It is still available but hidden behind a new setting. To enable this ability:

  1. Open phone settings
  2. Click on Notifications
  3. Click on Advanced settings
  4. Enable the option "Manage notification categories for each app"

It wasn't taken away, it eas buried. Go to settings/notifications/advanced settings and turn on manage notification categories for each app. Then return to your app settings and click on the notification categories, choose your categories and sounds
