Individual app volume

Laughrican — Tue, 17 Mar 2026 18:53:04 GMT

Had anyone else's individual app volume controls disappeared? I've tried everything to get it to show back up and nothing has worked..

Usually, I can hit my volume button, then tap the 3 dots at the top of my volume slider and it will expand the volume panel, allowing me to scroll side to side, showing me which apps are currently open so that I can choose the volume levels for each one, but now it only gives me the option to adjust the main ones (system, ai assistant, media, ringtone, and text.)

If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know! Thank you!

Hi there,
For devices having One UI 6 and above, Samsung has made some changes with the volume panel and the "per-app volume control" no longer exists.

But if you want to adjust your volume panel here's how you can do it:
Go to Play Store and download the "Good Lock" app then look for "Sound Assistant" and install it. Once it's done open it then go to "Customize Volume Panel" and turn it on > Custom > Expanded Panel > hit the "App Volume". You can also change more volume settings from the app itself.

Now you should be able to see separate app volumes as shown below, hope this helps!

try opening "individual app volumes" from that app and adding new apps to it, i personally don't use this feature but its worth a shot.

Doesn't tell us how to control sounds for individual messaging contacts nor how to control the phone's separate ringtones for each contact. Where did all the controls go???

Hi Tried to trouble shoot this as well as mentioned above. But the issue still persists.
unable to change app volumes individually as the three dots wont show in the volume panel.
