How to change notification sound?
I only see these options. I want to change to some custom notification sound which I downloaded from internet.

I tried copying my notification sound to Internal Storage/Notifications folder... As instructed in this webpage :https://www.samsung.com/in/support/mobile-devices/how-to-set-a-music-file-as-a-notification-tone-on-...
But it did not work😐

Device : a51


[UPDATE, 10 Jun 2022, 0758 hrs] 
After doing a Restart, the new notification tone appeared in the "Custom" list. But to add new tone, it needs a Restart everytime

> If you do the operation mentioned in the webpage (webpage link is at the beginning) with Samsung's File manager, Restart is not needed.
> Audio file in "Notifications" folder at any location (which are accessable and readable media folders) are listed in the Notification sound list.

Go file manager and locate the customised tone and copy or move that tone to notification folder of internal storage then you can set as notification sound
If you find helpful press 3 dot and mark as resolution

Try this. Go to ringtones and use the top right side plus sign to add your custom notification sound to the ringtone list. Then it may show in the notification sound list too.

On my uncle's M52, when he added a custom ringtone to the ringtones list, it showed up in the notification sound list too. However, it's not happening on your device as I see. Don't know what all bugs are there.
