There is no verified all-in-one replacement for Samsung Sound Assistant among the options covered here. For routing one app to another output, try Samsung’s Separate app sound; for tone and listening effects, use Sound quality and effects; and for playing the same media on two Bluetooth devices, use Dual audio if your Galaxy supports it. If you need per-app volume, finer volume steps, simultaneous audio from apps, or a customized volume panel, Samsung’s Sound Assistant listing remains the closest evidence-backed match—check its current availability for your device and region.
What Sound Assistant does
Samsung describes Sound Assistant as an “Advanced sound utility for your Galaxy.” Its Galaxy Store listing includes individual app volume control, 150-step fine volume adjustment, a floating equalizer, mono audio and left/right balance, app audio output switching between Bluetooth and the phone speaker, saved equalizer settings, and volume-panel customization. Samsung notes that some devices may not be supported. The 150-step figure is a vendor-listed feature specification, not an independent test result. Check Samsung’s current Galaxy Store listing for availability and compatibility with your Galaxy model and software.
Choose a built-in option for the task you need
Route one app to a different output
Separate app sound sends a selected multimedia app through an audio device different from the phone’s main output. For example, Samsung describes playing navigation audio through the phone while music plays through a car’s Bluetooth system. To set it up, go to Settings → Sounds and vibration → Separate app sound, turn it on, tap Select, then choose the app and audio device. The target must differ from the main output; Bluetooth devices appear as choices when connected. Menu labels may vary by device and software. Samsung’s instructions are for Hong Kong products, so availability and paths may differ elsewhere. See Samsung’s Separate app sound instructions.
Adjust sound tone and effects
For sound shaping rather than independent app levels, open Settings → Sounds and vibration → Sound quality and effects. Samsung documents Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos for gaming, an equalizer, UHQ upscaler for wired earphones, and Adapt sound in this area. These controls affect sound quality or listening effects; Samsung does not describe them as a per-app volume mixer. See Samsung’s Sound quality and effects instructions.

Play the same media on two Bluetooth devices
Dual audio can play the same media through two Bluetooth devices simultaneously on supported Galaxy models. That is different from directing one selected app to a different output, and it is not the same as allowing separate apps to play at once. Support depends on the model and software. See Samsung’s Dual audio information.
Which option matches your Sound Assistant feature?
| What you want to control | Best-supported option | What it does—and does not do |
|---|---|---|
| Volume for each app | Sound Assistant | Samsung lists individual application volume control. Separate app sound changes output routing, not app volume. |
| Where an app plays | Separate app sound | Routes a selected app to an output different from the phone’s main output; Bluetooth targets must be connected. |
| Tone or listening effects | Sound quality and effects | Provides settings such as equalizer and Dolby Atmos; it is not described as a per-app mixer. |
| Same media on two Bluetooth devices | Dual audio, on supported models | Plays the same media on two devices; it does not mean different apps can play simultaneously. |
| Finer volume steps or a customized volume panel | Sound Assistant | Samsung’s listing includes 150-step fine adjustment and volume-panel customization; confirm device compatibility. |
Can a third-party app replace Sound Assistant?
The available evidence does not establish a named third-party app as a dependable, full replacement for Sound Assistant’s per-app volume sliders, finer volume steps, simultaneous-app audio, and volume-panel customization. Generic Android controls or automation should not be assumed to provide these system-level functions on every Galaxy. Community reports of compatibility or module availability are anecdotal, not proof that Sound Assistant is either universally unavailable or universally compatible. Compare any alternative against the exact function you need and your Galaxy model, One UI version, region, and connected audio devices.
