Samsung Sound Assistant Reverse Stereo

Samsung has released a new update for the Sound Assistant Good Lock module with version 6.1.00.9. This update introduces an important change for Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6.

The fresh update of the Sound Assitant has removed the Reverse Stereo function for the Galaxy Fold 6 and Galaxy Flip 6. Samsung decided to remove this feature because recent changes to the system’s sound processing made it difficult to keep the function working properly.

The Reverse Stereo function allows users to switch the left and right audio channels. But now, this feature is no longer available for the latest foldable smartphones. The company has officially mentioned that they cannot guarantee stable functionality for the Reverse Stereo feature due to the recent changes in sound processing.

This update may be disappointing for users who use the reverse stereo feature in the sound assistant. However, Samsung aims to improve the stability of the device so that more audio functions work well.

Galaxy Fold 6 and Galaxy Flip 6 users will need to adjust to this change, but they can still enjoy other audio customization options in the sound assistant module. These latest smartphones already have several new and smart features.

Users can download the Samsung Sound Assitant 6.1.00.9 update from the Galaxy Store >> Menu option >> Updates. Also, they can download the update from the third-party app source link mentioned here.

Samsung recently added One UI 6.1.1 support to the Sound Assistant Good Lock module. In addition, it added Galaxy Buds 3 icons to align the interface with Samsung’s latest wearable technology to ensure that users can enjoy a seamless experience when managing sound settings through Sound Assistant.
