How to set a ringtone to a contact on Samsung?

Additionally, you can set a specific melody to a separate contact to immediately determine who is calling you. But this option is not supported on a number of Samsung devices. Therefore, you will need to use a third-party application - Ringtone Maker.

Important! To set a ringtone to a contact, it must be saved in the device memory and not on the SIM card. You can copy the data to use this option.

Ringtone Maker

The Ringtone Maker application allows you not only to edit ringtones, but also to set them both for the entire address book and for individual entries in it.

Download Ringtone Maker from Google Play Store

1. Install the application and open it. A list of all music files that are present on the phone will immediately be displayed. Please note that system ringtones and default ones are highlighted separately. Find the melody you want to put on a particular contact, click on the three dots to the right of the file name.
2. Select “Put on contact”.
3. A list of entries from the address book will open - find the one you need and simply tap on it. Receive a message about the successful installation of the melody.

Very simple, and most importantly, suitable for all Samsung devices. The only negative is that the application displays advertisements. If Ringtone Maker does not suit you, the ability to set a ringtone to a separate contact is present in some music players that we reviewed in the first part of the article.

No third party software

On a number of smartphones from the Korean manufacturer, you can cope without third-party software. Required:

• Open the standard Contacts application.
• Launch the additional actions menu with three dots.
• Go to "Settings".
• Select "Contacts".
• Click Show Contacts.
• Choose to display them on your device.
• Open your contact list again, find a person from the list.
• Click on the pencil.
• Select the item to set the ringtone. It can be added if it is missing.
• Confirm the launch of the Storage application.
• Choose a suitable melody.
• Save your changes.

For an individual contact

It is more convenient to set a melody for a contact in Samsung, then it will be possible to recognize the caller without looking at the gadget screen. This cannot be done through the settings or dialer; for this you need to use a special application or the “Contacts” function on your phone.

With applications

To put different music on each contact in Samsung, it is recommended to download the Ringtone Maker application. Through it it is convenient to set sound to a call or to an individual contact or edit it. For example, pin not the entire composition, but only its chorus or favorite moment. To change the parameters, do the following:

1. Download Ringtone Maker. You can do this from any virtual store: Play Market or Yandex Store or from the official website.
2. Install and open it. The entire list of tracks that is on the phone will appear on the screen. In a separate folder there will be those assigned to the gadget by the manufacturer and downloaded by the user from the Internet or computer.
3. Select a track and go to its parameters by clicking on the three dots located opposite the name.
4. Click on the “Define for contact” option, then from the address book list select the number to which you want to set the call.

If the actions are performed correctly, a message will appear stating that the installation of the new melody was successful, after this the changes will be saved, and every signal from a loved one will delight you with your favorite track.

On a note!

The Ringtone Maker app constantly shows advertisements, which makes using it inconvenient. The only way to eliminate its appearance is to turn off the Internet, but this will make some of its functions unavailable.

No apps required

If you still don’t want to download an application on your smartphone that will take up memory and constantly watch ads, you can set a ringtone on your Samsung phone through the phone option. This can be done in several steps:

1. You need to find the “Phone” function on the gadget and click on it.
2. Find the name of the person in the address book for whom you want to set a new alert. Click on it.
3. Subscriber information will open in a new window. Here you should find the “i” icon and click on it.
4. Scroll to the bottom of the page, click on the “Melody” inscription that appears.
5. A list of musical compositions that are stored in the gadget’s memory will open. You must check the box next to the desired composition.

After you have managed to add a ringtone to your Samsung call, the same operations can be done for other subscribers. Thus, a separate signal will be assigned to each person. On the Internet you can find different ringtones and match them with all the people who are recorded in your address book.

Method three to set your ringtone in Android Samsung for only one contact

Sometimes when we hear a call we want to immediately know who it is - without picking up the phone and without looking at the screen to see the caller's number.

This trick is also not difficult to pull off, but before that I want to share a more interesting trick.

In Samsung, you can make the phone pronounce the name of the person calling and even read the SMS at the beginning of the call. For me, this is a very good, sought-after solution.

For example, when it’s frosty outside, you don’t need to rummage through your purse or pockets, so you’ll find out everything - here are the instructions.

Now let's get back to the point. To do the trick of assigning a personal call to a specific contact, click on it and select “Details”.

Next, “Change”, scroll down and click “More.” We turn again until we see the lines “Ringtone”.

There is no point in describing the procedure further. Clicking on this line will open a selection of melodies. Select and confirm with the “Save” button.

Installing a melody on One UI

Starting in 2021, Samsung began producing smartphones with an updated shell. The list of these includes Samsung Galaxy A10, A30, A40, A50, A51, M, S and Note lines. Here, changing the contact's ringer proceeds in a similar way.

1. Go to "Phone".
2. Tap on the subscriber icon and select “i”.
3. Click on the “Edit” pencil image at the bottom.
4. A new window will appear. Select Expand.
5. Scroll down the page until you get to “Ringtone”, tap on it.
6. Select an audio track from the standard ones or click on the “+” in the upper right corner.
7. A window will appear asking you to select software to access the third-party track. Check the software, and then click “Only now” so that the selected software does not open constantly.
8. Specify the path to the track, select it and click “Select”.
9. All you have to do is click on “Save”.

Method 2: Setting your own passage

In order to play a downloaded song on a call, you need to use an application for playing music. For example, this could be the standard Samsung Music program, which is available on all phones of this brand.

1. We go into it and find the desired song. You can do this by searching by title or by opening lists sorted by artist or album. Once you find a song, you need to click on it. It will start playing and will open in full screen.
2. In the upper right corner, find the icon with three dots and tap on it. From the drop-down menu, select “Install as”.
3. A window for installing a song as a ringtone will open, where under the second inscription “Set as” you need to click on the circle next to the “Ringtone” option. Then select “Play selected part” from the top and move the slider to select the moment at which the ringtone will begin.

If you want the song to be played from the beginning, you don’t have to perform the last two steps - just select the “First” option in the top menu.

After setting the song to the ringtone, it will appear in the list of standard ringtones, and in the future you can set it to the ringtone through the settings.

Installing custom music on Android

Different melodies for contacts allow you to recognize the caller without taking your smartphone out of your pocket. In addition to convenience, it entertains and adds variety. Moreover, on Android, setting a ringtone for a call is not a very difficult task.

There are many ways to set individual music for each contact, but the easiest way is to use standard device tools.

Music for contacts in Android changes:

• through the smartphone settings;
• through the built-in file manager;
• via a standard audio player.
