A recent discussion among friends wondered if anyone really used ringtones anymore. The idea was that most people (those who still use their phones to hold verbal conversations) either go with whatever ringtone their phone comes with or just use vibrations. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

These directions were tested using a Pixel 6 and a Galaxy S23 running Android 14. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

There are a number of apps available in the Play Store that will create and install ringtones for you. However, if you have an audio file of your own that you want to use, here\u2019s how to make it available:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
