Help "Next SMS" app -- custom notification sounds?

Device: Samsung Galaxy S5
Carrier: AT&T
Android 6.0.1
"Next SMS" by Handcent, version 7.2.6.5

Probem: setting different notification sounds for different contacts.

The app gives me steps that would seem to let me select different notif sounds. But after I follow those steps, when I check the contact's own sound it continues to be the "default ringtone."

This happens when I select a sound from the notification sounds on my phone, and also when I select one from the music tracks on my phone.

I have checked Handcent's FAQ. The FAQ gives the steps (see above). But the FAQ has nothing for the situation where the steps don't work. (See http://www.handcent.com/dir/new/help/doHelp?hid=294 )

A web search also came up blank.

Is this simply "what this app does?" Or am I missing something?
