In the iTunes Store app, you can purchase ringtones, text tones, and other alert tones for clock alarms and more.
You can browse by category or search for a specific song or artist, and play a preview before you buy. Tones you bought on another device can be downloaded again on your iPhone, too.
Here’s how to get ringtones, text tones, and alert tones in the iTunes Store on iPhone.
Buy new tones
- Open the iTunes Store app on your iPhone.
- Tap Tones.
- Browse by category or tap Search to find a specific song or artist.
- Tap a tone to see more information or play a preview.
- To buy a tone, tap the price.
Redownload tones purchased with your Apple Account
When you’ve bought tones on another device, you can download them again.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Tap Sounds & Haptics (on supported models) or Sounds (on other iPhone models).
- Below Ringtone, tap any item.
- Tap Download All Purchased Tones. You might not see this option if you already downloaded all the tones that you purchased or if you haven’t purchased any tones.
When you purchase access to movies, TV shows, music, music videos, ebooks, audiobooks, or ringtones from Apple, you also have the option to permanently download these items to a compatible iPhone, iPad, Mac, or PC. Apple cannot revoke your downloaded content, and you can always access your downloaded content without an internet connection.
