Setting Custom Contact Ringtones On Android Is Now Easier Than Ever


The old method hasn’t been removed. I wish Google found a way to accommodate the new custom contact ringtones feature somewhere in the Google Phone app. I’m sure not many use Google Contacts unless for managing contacts since the contacts list in the Phone app is sufficient to look up and call someone.
The feature is still rolling out, so it should take a while before it shows up on all Android devices. It has shown up on all my Android devices so I believe the rollout is happening rather quickly.

How to Set a Custom Contact Ringtone on Android

To set a custom ringtone directly from the Contacts page in Google Dialer, go to the Contacts tab > select a contact > three-dots icon, and tap on Set ringtone.
In the last few months, Google has rolled out many small but impactful features to its suite of applications such as UI adjustments and minor changes and fixes. With Google I/O 2024 and Android 15‘s testing on the way, expect the search engine giant to make more changes in the ecosystem. What are your thoughts on the latest custom contact ringtone feature?
