Preparing Your Ringtone

Before we dive into the process of setting a custom ringtone, let’s discuss the supported audio formats and how to get your ringtones ready. The Galaxy S24 supports various audio formats for ringtones, including MP3, WAV, and OGG. You can either create your own ringtones using audio editing software or download them from various websites or apps.

Once you have your desired ringtone file, you’ll need to transfer it to your Galaxy S24. You can do this by connecting your phone to your computer via a USB cable and copying the file to your phone’s internal storage or SD card. Alternatively, you can use cloud storage services like Google Drive or Samsung Cloud to upload the file and then download it on your phone.

Setting a Custom Ringtone for Calls

Now that you have your ringtone file on your Galaxy S24, let’s set it as your default ringtone for calls.
