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?

[CrazyTom2k2]

Hey there CrematedEddie!

Yes, that should be possible.

You'll need to send the ringtone over using the Add Tracks option in the Galaxy Wearable app, and then use the Sound and Vibration settings to apply your ringtone.

Haven't done this myself yet, but I could do it on my Watch Active2, so it should still be a feature.

Best wishes,
Tom 😀

The wear os software is rather limited on the galaxy watch at the moment and does not seem to have that feature yet.....in fact there are quite a few features missing from both original tizen and Wear os systems....

I agree, can send tracks over to watch but are unable to use them as either ringtone or notification sound...come on Samsung sort this out.. was able to do this previously on galaxy watch 3

Thank you for the app suggestion! I was able to at least put the files into the correct folders, but unfortunately, they don't show up in the selection list for either ringtones or notifications. I'm not sure if they need to be specific encoders to work, or if there's still just no way for it to access it on US models.

UPDATE: Correction! While they didn't show up in the lists for me at first, I rebooted my watch, and then they were available to use! This method does work, for both MP3 and OGG files!

hi Diesel ,,

the file format is the - .mp3,, and they don't show on my phone only on the watch,, have you tryed turning your watch off and back on,,

the second time i did it nothing showed up untill i did that,, and all of them are showing on the watch now for me,, "ringtones"..74,, but only 1 notification!!

as i was just do this on a trial and error, i think i was just lucky that i did it,, but i dont see why it should'nt work for you aswell

i just seen your update,, it's great to know it does work from someone else

This worked!!  But for some reason not right away..  I almost gave up.  But the last time of 15 restarts.  The ringtone showed up in both my ringtone and notifications!!

hi luckyb

i'm just happy you managed to get it to work ,, a good few have said now it does'nt show up straight away after the restart, even leaving the watch off over night...

but you've got it to work so happy days.....cheers for the feedback
