While transfering Sound & Shot photos from Galaxy S4 to other devices sound isn't heard?

Last Update date : Oct 13. 2020

Sound & Shot allows users to record up to nine seconds of audio with a still image. So, you can remember what was said, played, and heard, not just what it looked like. It adds another layer of excitement to help you relive and share every moment of each picture much more vividly.

 ( Sound & Shot mode in Galaxy S4 )

 

Sound & Shot function can be supported only in Samsung Galaxy S4 devices. So when you transfer Sound & Shot files to other device (not galaxy S4), the sound is not played. It is supported only between Galaxy S4 devices. Although you can transfer between Galaxy S4 devices, the original photo must be transferred without editing to play the sound which is included in Sound & shot photo. So when you transfer Sound & shot photo, please use Bluetooth, NFC or Wi-Fi direct.
