I can't tell if I have received an email or text.

Is there anyway to have a different sound notification for my text from my emails?

Yes, you can set separate notification tones via the Settings menu in each app.  There also may be an option within the Sound and Notification > Ringtones and Sounds settings like there is an on S6.

Thank you very much. I haven't been getting my text as soon as they come in cause I think that I got another email.

Dang, I hate typos  .   That last sentence should have said:  There also may be an option within the Sound and Notification > Ringtones and Sounds settings like there is on an S6.

You're welcome. I also like having separate notification tones for texts and e-mails, along with a few contacts.

Let’s make sure you can customize your message and email options to your needs, minnieb2. Typically each application can be adjusted within its own settings. If using Gmail press Menu>Settings>Click account name>Inbox Sound & Vibrate>Sound. You can also adjsut the text settings within the Messaging app through its Settings. Please keep me updated with the progress as I am happy to help further if needed.
