Volume control like iPhone - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I'm new to android and I'm a long time iPhone user. I must say I really like the S7. But is there a possibility that I can control the system, ringer & notification volume, in one setting? Just the same like on iOS?

Yes. Just push volume button. There will be a pop up screen with slider and in the right corner you see a arrow, click on it and you can control all volumes.

I created a tasker profile to link the ring and notification volume.
When I hit the volume button, both ringer and notification volume adjust together.
I could share the profile on here if I knew how to [emoji52]

Yeah, Tasker is an app on the playstore.

Please share it, or write a short Tutorial about how to do it!

You can do the same for Media Volume.

[APP FOUND]Unified Volume Control??

Is there an app that unifies the ring volume and media volume? Trying to get to the media volume is hassle sometimes. I know its suppose to be an automatic switch but most times it takes too long.

That app doesn't unify the volume controls. It does make them easier to access but i'm looking for a unifier. I've searched around but for some reason i don't see any threads about this.

Thanks. I'm not really looking for a unified menu i'm looking for master volume control with the rocker switches. I did find Master Volume Controller which allows the rocker switches to control all volumes. Its a little rough though. Is there anything better that anyone knows about?

i can't find the volume button controller app anywere, is it posible for some one to share it?
I'm thinking it got pulled from the market for some reason. I doubt it was by google but probably by the developer.
Audioguru works pretty well for changing audio settings

Is there any other app that serves the same purpose (unified volume control via volume rocker) ?
Volume Button Controller app unfortunately is unavailable

[Q] Quiet Hours possible on Sense?

So I was wondering if it is possible to get CM's wonderful Quiet Hours onto Sense? If not what is an app that works like the Quiet Hours setting. I love the Sense battery, wifi and over all stability, but I really hate having to mute my notifications everytime I go to bed and then have to remember to turn that volume back up. I have to keep the ringer active at night. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance.

What about the native Do Not Disturb that's built into Sense 6?

You can definitely schedule the DND feature for certain times. As far as the ringer goes, you can select any (or all) contacts to bypass the DND mode.

Thanks. I had to add it to EQS because the rom I'm on I couldn't figure out how to get it to give me settings. I have it set. Testing tonight to see if it works.

I use a free app from the Playstore called Timeriffic to set times for many things.
Very easy to configure. One gap it has is it seems to think the ringer volume and notification volume are linked.
If that is not an issue for you give it a shot I think you will like it.
Thanks I will look into it. The DND is working out well now that I figured it out. Thanks everyone for your help.

Works very well, as developer promised, but will be better if you keep pressed the volume button to change track instead of single press to do that. It's a bit annoying at least for me hahahaha
Anyway, keep on dev. you did a great job for non rooted devices!

I would have done that if possible, but it is not possible to detect long press of volume keys in non rooted android devices . User will have to use it for atleast 2 days to master it.

Help with notifications and volume changing

Hello guys,
I'm wondering if is there a way to stop the sound volume changing made by notifications.
I'm explaining better: in any mode, with or without sounds or vibrations, when I'm listening to music or watching some stuff and I received a notifications, for example by WhatsApp or email, the sound becomes lower for a couple of seconds and then return to his previous volume. That's very annoying.
Do you know if there's a way to stop this behavior?

Go to Settings\Sound and Vibrations\ and look for Ascending Ringtone. This setting starts sounds low and raises them as it continues

I've tried it, didn't work, it keeps interruptions
To completely stop notifications from interrupting, you have to disable the notification related to the app.
Settings\Status bar and notification\Manage notification. Select your app and go through available settings. Experiment until you find what you're looking for.
Yes I've tried all the settings, nothing changed. Don't know if it's a bug.
Vivo with Oreo 8.1 does not support separate ringing/sound volume alarm form sound alarm notification.
You have to wait until Pie version arrive that add that useful separation.
Here's how sounds volume works on Pie.

Easiest way is to enable the silent mode from control manager while anytime you are watching videos and don't want the notifications disturb you.
Hope this helps!

Volume Widget Display Volume Levels?

Hey guys what's up, I have been in search of an app that will show volume levels like the old Audio Manger app would do before they discontinued it.

If you mean the volumes levels as in the volume level of ringtones, bluetooth, etc.., you should have that already. When you press the volume button up or down and the volume slider pops-up on the screen, there is a drop down button on the slider, tap it and you'll get a pop-up showing your other volume levels.

I've been sporadically looking for a replacement as well. (Yes, I am aware of the volume slider+tap) We are talking about a widget that offers an "at a glance" display on the screen widget showing the current levels like in the OPS's 1st screenshot

I think I found a 3rd party app that has a widget like you want. Go to Playstore, do a search for "The Control Volume Widget".
