Customizing the Samsung Messanger notifications

JDL523

Hi all,

I'm sorry if this a repeat question, but I searched and didn't find anything matching my problem.

I just switched from iphone - so far so good, but there was one thing I liked about the Iphone was the smart messaging notifications. For instance, if you had your phone on ring, and your text message app was closed, you'd get a notification sound. If you opened the app, and someone texted you again while you were in it, it would only vibrate, and not make sound. Is there a way to get the default Samsung messaging app (i.e. not google hangouts) to do this? I've searched both online and in settings and can't find anything. It seems stupid I have to choose between a sound notification ALL the time, or just vibration notifications all the time, when a happy medium is what would work best. Is there another app that would let me set notifications differently?

Any help here would be appreciated.
