Hey, upgraded to a 24 Ultra recently... Previously I could set notification ringtones for individual things or people... Did they take that away?

 
I can only set like 1 notification sound for everything where before I could have it so I knew what the notification was by listening to what sounds it made... Really irritating if that is gone... If I've somehow missed where I need to be please let me know! 
Loving the phone so far other than that, and some of my apps won't notify me of stuff, where as everything on my 23 Ultra was fine.
Thanks in advance everyone!

Notification Sound for Each App:

   First Turn This On:

•  Settings  >
•  Notifications  >
•  Advanced Settings  >

•  Turn "Manage Notification
Categories for Each App" On.

 

     Change Notification
     Sound for Each App:

   Settings  
   Apps  
   Choose App  
   Notifications  
   Allow Notifications Must be On  
   Notification  Categories  
⁃   Click on a Category Text  
      (not the switch on/off)
⁃   Sound  
⁃   Choose a Notification Sound.   

 

Notification Sound for each Contact:

• Phone App
• Choose Contact Name
• Press the (i) button
• Press More (3 dots)
• Change Ringtone/Vibration
• Choose Ringtone

That solution allows for different categories of notifications within apps, but I don't see the option to set unique tones for individual apps

On the new s24 ultra there is no "notification categories" only very few apps have that. Therefore, we cannot customize the notifications sounds for all apps anymore as we used to he able to.

 

Has anyone found a solution @uservsdu9ene can y'all fix that please!

This doesn't work. If you follow this advice it will allow you to change the notification sound for that particular text conversation. When you delete the text and receive another one later it's back to the default ringtone. I should have kept my S22 Ultra.

I have the same issue and I'm not seeing any option that says "manage notification categories for each app" in that settings menu.

I figured it out today!! if you are using the new Google Messages app that replaced Samsungs...

1. Open Messages

2. Open a chat you have with the person you'd like to change the notification sound for.

3. Click on their name at the top

4. Choose Notifications

5. Finally click Sound and choose what you'd like!!
