when i am texting in my default text app and get reply i get a notification sound on every text i receive, this is very annoying, is there a way to turn that off while inside the message app and receiving messages?

Welcome to Android Central! Funny enough, we usually get posts here asking for then notification tones to sound when the user is actively using the messaging app, not the other way around!;)

When you say "default text app", are you talking about Google Messages or Samsung Messages? Or are you using some other 3rd party messaging app that you set as default?

I also moved this from the Galaxy Fold forum (for the 1st gen) to the Z Fold4 forum.

I think this is one of the distinguishing features of Samsung Messages. You could switch to Google Messages and that issue should go away.

Hmm, that's odd -- it's usually the other way around (i.e., Google Messages shouldn't be giving you notifications of incoming messages when you have the app open). Oh well, if it works for you, then great!
