I want to set different ringtones for specific people but I can't access the menu to change it. I've watched over a dozen videos and read 30something articles and they all reference a view more button in the contact menu but I don't have that button. In the edit contact menu all I have is name phone # and email, at the bottom of my screen it just says cancel and save. Can anyone tell me how to solve this please? I am on a US galaxy s20 ultra.

I understand the importance of being able to set a custom ringtone to make sure you receive that call or message. These articles explain the steps for creating a custom tone for your contacts.

Set a ringtone on your Galaxy device

Use the Samsung Messages app on your Galaxy phone

 

Please note the notification settings on your phone may vary based on your carrier and whether your service is active.

I use the app ZEDGE for all my sounds etc
Choose a ringtone, download. On my S21 a menu pops up and the option Set as Contact Ringtone is listed.
Tap that option, select the contact you want and that's it.
What can be confusing is after setting the contact ringtone the options Pops back up, just exit or back out.
hope this made sense

Yeah I miss being able to simply choose a contact, click edit, then choose a ringtone you want to use for that contact. I don't know why companies insist on making things more difficult. If you figure out how please let me know.

I have the View More option but there's no option to set a custom ringtone. I can set a custom vibration pattern but no ringtone.

When you click on contact and then hit edit, does it look like the pic and have a view more. You can also have custom vibrate pattern for contacts tooScreenshot_20210609-034532_Contacts.jpg
