Hi, on my S23U I had a specific sound set for incoming messages.  I use Google message and not Samsung app.  I'm just setting up my S24U and cannot see option to set specific sound.  I attach two screen shots.  One is the notification app screen for google messenger on the S23U.  You can see the selection 'Notification categories'.  This is where you select a specific incoming sound for texts.  The second screen shot is from my S24U - note the lack of this option.

The Configure in Messages takes you back to the app but there is nowhere in app settings to set incoming message sound.

Can anyone help?

I think I have the answer to this, from Settings go to Notifications/Advanced settings and toggle on 'Manage notification settings for each app'. The notification category option is then available.

Apparently it's a software issue and I have been told that a fix update will come next week. I chose to send mine back for a replacement as not all handsets are affected

Is there options via Settings > Apps > Choose App > Look there for any options to change the tone @Calv 

 The only other section is the sounds and vibration section. 

Unfortunately there maybe some tones you can't change as ker the developers preference settings.

Could someone please help...... I am unable to set notification tones on my New Galaxy S24+. I can set the main notification tone but I cannot set tones for other apps, for example Samsung Messsges. I have no options to change notification settings.
