How to Change Ringtone on iPhone

There is a joke that people don't know who is receiving a call when an iPhone rings, as people are using the same classic iPhone ringtone. As an iPhone user, you may be using the same ringtone with millions of people. But in fact, you are only several taps away from a different ringtone. This article will demonstrate all ways you can use to change ringtone on iPhone.

Part 1. How to Change Default Ringtone on Your iPhone

iPhone has dozens of built-in ringtones. You can switch your ringtone easily in "Settings" within the scope of default ringtones. Find the option "Sounds & Haptics" in "Settings," tap "Ringtone," and select one ringtone you like. It is so easy to change your ringtone to a less common one.

Part 2. How to Add Custome Ringtones to iPhone

There is a very limited choice with the default iPhone ringtones. If you want to make songs into ringtone or use a ringtone you've just heard. You can do this in 2 ways.

Solution 1. Purchase A Ringtone from iTunes Store

Apple offers a bunch of ringtones in the iTunes Store for purchase. If you like any of them, you can purchase one. Open the app iTunes Store and tap "More" and "Tones." Look through the page to look for a ringtone you like and purchase it. This is easy. However, you need to spend money every time you change your ringtone in iTunes Store. 

Solution 2. Set Any Song as Your Ringtone with iRingg
