Limited built-in notification sounds?

[sketchy9]

Coming from the 950XL, I'm rather appalled at the limited selection of notification sounds available on the T-Mobile version. I like to have various apps each with their own distinct sound but I've quickly run out on the Idol. Anyone else noticed this? Any solution? I'd love to export the 950XL sounds but I have no idea how.

Sorry to hijack this OP, but, this makes me wonder about something. On my 950XL, apps don't have their usual notification sound (e.g. Facebook Messenger) and they all have the same tone. There seems to be no way to change it either. Give what RumouredNow mentioned, see if that works.

I will have to check Zedge out. Thanks for the link. There are few notification sounds that I miss from old Lumia, hopefully I can find them.

Am I missing something? How do I specify sounds for different apps? All I'm seeing is a general notification sound option.

Go to settings>personalisation>sounds>manage app sounds. From there you can set what specific notification sounds to which ever apps.

I'm still partial to the collection of old Nokia tones in the app of the same name. https://forums.windowscentral.com/e...p%2Fnokia-tones%2F9nblggh0cjhp&token=Y_NtJPo7

i've only done this using mp3 files-but if you connect your phone to your desktop/laptop, you can move songs/sounds from your computer over to the "ringtones" folder of your phone. whatever mp3 files you move over will be listed when you go to "settings", "ringtones" menu on your phone. you can also use those same files for notifications, such as text message.

I've tried that but I wasn't able to manage the individual app sounds.
