I have a Note 4 and installed WhatsApp on it. I use WhatsApp often to text my wife. In my phone contacts list, I picked a special ringtone for my wife's contact so I'll know that she's calling. But - somehow, someway - WhatsApp has picked up my wife's telephone ringtone and uses it to notify me of messages from her - very annoying!!! And what's more annoying is I can't find a way to set a WhatsApp message tone for her messages - I can't even return it to the default message tone. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
 
Never mind. NATurally, I figured out how to fix it not long after posting. It's in the WhatsApp setting, Notifications, Link to Contact Ringtones. :

Glad to know my GS5 didn't suddenly become possessed, either. If only the ringtones we chose for our spouses weren't so embarrassing when blasted at full volume right off the bat :p
