Galaxy Watch 4 (Bluetooth version) - adding custom ringtones?

[CrematedEddie]

Does anybody know if and how you add your own custom ringtone to the Bluetooth version of the watch?

hi posts,,

if you also put the files into the notifiction folder you can change them to,, and the alarm sounds on the watch as well,,

Hi Guys,

This does work.Even I, as an 83 year old, had no problem on my second attemptto get all my wanted personal ringtones into the right folder.

Where I failed in the first attempt was that  , after clicking the wanted song  to go blue, I then clicked on the right Arrow, and then went to the ring folder.

WRONG.

As soon as the + and arrow appear, DO not click on it, but scroll up to the ringtone folder, open it and then click on the arrow to get your song into that folder.

Turn off your watch, wait a little  while, then reboot your watch and BINGO  your song is in that folder.

I repeated this a few times with a few other songs, then turned off watch and after rebooting it  a little later, all songs where in this folder and I now have the same ringtone working on my S20 as  I have on the watch.

Goodluck

no you are wrong,,, and you did not read it right ...........

thanks for the feedback

and i'm so happy that even an 83 year old doen't need youtube to get it to work,, the same as hundreds of other ,,

perhaps next time i'll charge a $1 - £1 or 1eur ....

The adding wear file explorer worked like a charm.  Most importantly..DONT FORGET TO RESTART YOUR WATCH!  Took me a couple times but worked flawlessly.

How do you get ringtone of phone to be the same ringtone on classic 4 watch,  they just have Samsung beeps tones 

[sjj67]

only one custom ringtone will work on your GW4,,, not like on your phone where you can give a ringtone to each contact... thats samsung for you,,

It took 2 times & I had to leave my watch turned off for about a full minute but when I turned back on I was able to set my custom ringtone & notifications. Thanks 👍🏾
