Google has recently rolled out a new feature for its Contact app. The newly launched feature has added a “contact ringtones” tab within the app. The tab lets users add custom ringtones to individual contacts. The feature is aimed at music lovers and lets them set personalised ringtones for specific contacts such as friends or family members.
The feature was spotted by an X user who goes by the name Mishaal Rahman. As per him, the feature is available on the latest version of the Google Contacts app – V4.27.26.
“Google Contacts is rolling out a new "contact ringtones" page that lets you "add a custom ringtone to individual contacts to help you recognize who's calling." Some users are starting to see this on the latest version (4.27.26), but I don't have it, so it's likely a server-side rollout,” Mishal wrote in an X post.
The contact ringtones tab is hidden in the Fix & manage menu on the app and lets users set custom ringtones. You can set unique ringtones for each contact.
If you find this feature interesting and want to set a custom ringtone for any of your contacts, here is a step-by-step guide on how to set custom ringtone for individual contacts on Google Contacts.
