Galaxy s23. Cannot change volume. Have to leave the app, change volume, and come back.

Turn off comment navigation with volume buttons in the settings.

TIL there is such a feature as "navigation with volume buttons"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It sounds like a terrible feature, but it really works in some circumstances. A minesweeper app I had long ago allowed swapping between flagging and uncovering by pressing the volume buttons, and let me tell you, what an amazing feature that was. You could get almost as good times as you could on a PC, it wasn't clunky like most mobile minesweeper apps are. Having to tap a flag/uncover icon to swap wastes a few seconds, and long tapping on a square to flag it is just miserable.

ok, speaking minesweeper why would you want the tool to be not flag ever? I just tap the number once I flagged all the mones around it and the no flagged tiles open

And is enabled by default!?

That was it. Thank you.

Same on my a51.

A workaround that works for me is to pull down the top menu by swiping down from the top of your screen. The audio buttons work when the menu is down. You can push the menu back up swiping up from the bottom of your screen or simply pressing the back-button.

There's a setting to disable it.

Same on a S21. Guess it's a Samsung issue. Can't get it to work at all.

Would be nice for a comment Navigation panel at the bottom of the screen too

if you can't solve your problem, you can add volume tiles to notifications: MediaVolume (Quicksettings Tiles for media volume) - https://f-droid.org/app/cn.morfans.chenjunyu19.mediavolume

Does your app have some setting that uses volume keys, for example navigation or similar? Might help checking the settings, and disable anything that suggests using volume buttons for something other than volume.
