To change the ringtone on a Samsung Galaxy Note10+, go to Settings > Sounds and vibration > Ringtone. Choose a built-in tone, or tap Add to select a compatible audio file saved on the phone.

Choose a preset ringtone

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap Sounds and vibration.
  3. Tap Ringtone.
  4. If prompted, choose the SIM whose ringtone you want to change.
  5. Tap a ringtone to preview it, then select the tone you want. The Note10+ manual documents this path and preview function: Samsung Galaxy Note10/Note10+ user manual.

Available SIM controls and menu wording can vary with the software version, market, or carrier. Preset ringtone choices may also vary by carrier, and Samsung notes that screens and instructions can differ by device or software version (Samsung support; Samsung support).

Add a custom ringtone from a file

  1. Save the audio file directly on the Note10+; Samsung says streaming-service tracks cannot be selected as ringtones.
  2. Open Settings > Sounds and vibration > Ringtone.
  3. Tap Add or the plus icon, then browse the phone for the audio file. If it does not appear in the track list, browse folders.
  4. Select the file and tap Done.

Samsung UK lists MP3, WMA, AAC, and FLAC as supported sound formats in its custom-ringtone guidance, updated June 5, 2026. Samsung says M4A files need conversion to one of those formats. See Samsung’s custom ringtone instructions.

Which option should you use?

Option Best when What you need
Preset ringtone You want a quick choice from the tones available on the phone. No separate audio file; availability may vary by carrier.
Custom ringtone You want a particular sound or song. A compatible audio file downloaded and stored on the phone. A streaming subscription by itself is not enough.

If the ringtone you want is missing

  • Check where the audio is stored: Samsung’s instructions require the file to be downloaded directly to the phone, rather than merely playable through a streaming service.
  • Check the format: use MP3, WMA, AAC, or FLAC; convert M4A to a supported format.
  • Browse folders: the file may not appear in the initial track list.
  • Look for different labels: menu names and available controls can differ by software version, region, or carrier.

Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on Amazon at the time of purchase will apply.
