 I was setting up my new phone and I'm trying to get a separate notification sound for email and text. I can't find sounds on Google messages. Should I download another message app?
 Also looking for a way to take screenshot without using the side buttons. I remember somebody suggesting something, but I can't find it in my settings. I feel so dumb. I don't want all the sounds to be the same. Please help.
 I have a Galaxy A16

Open the app you want to change the notification sound for
Click on Notification Categories
Then click on the category you want to change the sound for,
Then go where it says sound and change it.

Do you want one sound for all messages or do you want a separate sound for each individual contact?

No just one sound for all messages and a different one for email. Forgot to say I have a Galaxy A16

Screenshot can be done with a hand swipe or hold the power and down button the same time.

I can't do that. Somebody suggested something else. Maybe I'll find it in older posts

You should be able to hand swipe left to right. Sometimes it always doesn't work the first or second try.
