Google has hinted that the latest Android 13 QPR3 or 14 release may include a separate slider for Ringtone and Notification volume, allowing users to fine-tune their audio settings more easily.
Previous Android releases required users to control both Ringtone and Notification volume with a single slider.
However, there are hints that this may change in future versions of the operating system, according to IANS.
When Android 13 QPR2 Beta 1 was released in December, an ADB (Android Debug Bridge) command was added that allowed users to create separate sliders for ‘Ring volume’ and ‘Notification volume’ in the ‘Sound & vibration’ section of the device settings, joining Media, Call, and Alarm volume for a total of five sliders.
The report did not specify when the notification/ringtone volume change will be included in the June stable release of Android 13 QPR3, or Android 14.
Meanwhile, Google has released the first public Beta of Android 14 to both developers and early adopters, with new features focused on system navigation, privacy, performance, and user customization.
“Today, we’re releasing the first Beta of Android 14, building around our core themes of privacy, security, performance, developer productivity, and user customization while continuing to improve the large-screen device experience on tablets, foldable, and more,” Google wrote in a blog post.
