Tap Done and in future whenever that person calls you the custom ringtone will sound to let you know who is calling. You can now assign a tone from any ringtone you have available on your iPhone, including any ringtones you may have created or purchased. Open their contact card and tap Edit, then swipe down the now editable card to seek out the Ringtone option. Open Contacts menu and find the person whose ringtone you want to personalize If they do just follow these quick steps: The contact must have an entry in your Contacts book to achieve this. You can assign unique ringtones to specific contacts: that way you will always know it is them calling when the ringer chimes. You’ll need to Sync your iPhone and your new Siri-style audio file should be available for use as a Ring- or notification tone. Delete the original audio in iTunes and drag the renamed file with its new audio extension back into iTunes where it should appear in your Tones library. Find it in iTunes, drag it to your Desktop and rename the file extension to m4r (so, Yournewfile.m4r). You’ll need to name your track and choose a system voice (Samantha on OS X is a little like Siri on iOS).Īn audio file will be created in iTunes. Just type what you want Siri to say in TextEdit on your Mac, then in the TextEdit>Services menu choose Add to iTunes as a Spoken Track. You can also make Siri-style ringtones on a Mac.

There are numerous apps but I’m unable to offer a definitive opinion about which ones work best, though Ringtone Designer from Blackout Labs seems promising. You can also create ringtones from music that you own using third-party iOS apps. ( You’ll find a more in-depth explanation of the ringtone creation process here). In each case your tone will be set as default after the process, but you can always change it later on using the instructions above. The final step will be to choose to export the tone as a Standard Ringtone, Standard Text Tone or to Assign to contact ( see below). You’ll be asked to name your tone before tapping the Export button. Now select Ringtone from the sharing options that appear. When you get this right record it by tapping on the Record button, and then in My Songs view select the jingle you just made and choose the Sharing icon.

You can also create your own ringtones directly on your iPhone using GarageBand – just open a new project, select your instruments of choice and play around until you put together a 15-20-second sequence you like. You can then choose between hundreds of ringtones, including amusing Siri-related mash-ups like this one or one of the popular Marimba Remix tones, such as the forthcoming Drake One Dance Marimbar mix. Tap the Store button at the top right corner of Sounds and Vibration Patterns, on the next screen pick Tones and you’ll be taken to the ringtones section of the iTunes Store. Further down the screen you’ll find a selection of Alert tones, these are normally used for alarms and other notifications, but you can also use them as ringtones.
