I have a Galaxy S10Plus and am able to set specific ringtones using the Contacts app to Edit a contact record, scroll to the bottom of the contact record and hit View More, scroll down again to the bottom and you should see Ringtone prefixed by a little musical note icon . It should be second to last item, just above Vibration Pattern.

 

I ended up installing Contacts by Google, free from the Play Store, to be able to assign individual ringtones.

 

That's what I feared, but wanted to confirm with you that Sammy may have changed the Contacts app in your newer phone version. Sorry that I couldn't help.

 

well...... i have the ringtone option on my note 10+ running android 11 with OneUI 3.1 when i edit contacts.

contacts(google) app version 3.45.3.373830539

are you sure you are looking at google contacts and not at samsung contacts?

 

FYI that's exactly the same thing I'm seeing with a new Note20. There is no "Ringtone" in the menu. I got "Vibration pattern" and that's it.

I'm not worried about it myself, because there's only one person who actually makes real phone calls to me. All other contacts call either via WeChat or WhatsApp.

 

Ignore my previous reply!

There is a way to set personal ringtones for a contact on the stock Samsung Contact app.

Open the contact that you wish to assign a personalised ringtone...

Edit > scroll down to, "View more" > Scroll down to "Ringtone"... now you can select the ringtone for that contact.

Hope that helps!

 

I am running the stock Samsung, non-carrier branded, firmware for the worldwide, Exynos, model with Samsung Contacts version 12.1.20.9. (See screenshot)

It sounds as though you may have an adapted region/country/carrier branded variant. Back to PLAN A.
