How to Set a Ringtone for iPhone: A Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Choose or Create a Ringtone

Before you start, decide whether you want to use a standard ringtone provided by Apple or a custom one of your choice. If you opt for a custom ringtone, make sure it's in a compatible format (M4R) and is already on your iPhone or available in your iCloud Drive.

Step 2: Open Settings

Unlock your iPhone and navigate to the home screen. Locate and tap the "Settings" app, which is represented by a gear icon.

Step 3: Access Sounds & Haptics

Within the Settings menu, scroll down and tap on "Sounds & Haptics." Here, you can manage various sound-related settings for your device.

Step 4: Choose a Ringtone

Under the "Sounds and Vibration Patterns" section, you'll find the "Ringtone" option. Tap on it to access the list of available ringtones.
