Using your Ringzi

How do I add a Ringzi as my ringtone on iPhone?

Open your downloaded Ringzi, then use the Apple Share button in the bottom-right corner.

1. Tap Share

Open your downloaded Ringzi and tap the Apple Share button in the bottom-right corner

2. Tap View More

In the share menu, scroll to the bottom and tap View More

That's it 🎉

Your Ringzi is ready to use as your ringtone.

How do I add a Ringzi Alert Tone on iPhone?

Once you've tapped Add to iPhone on your Alert Tone:

Add your Alert Tone to iPhone

  1. 1. Import your Ringzi

    Open your Ringzi, tap the Apple Share button and choose Use as Ringtone.

    Don't worry — Apple will temporarily make this your ringtone. We'll change it back in Step 3.

  2. 2. Make it your Text Tone

    Go to Settings → Sounds & Haptics → Text Tone, find your Ringzi (usually near the bottom) and tap it.

  3. 3. Change your ringtone back

    Go to Settings → Sounds & Haptics → Ringtone and choose your normal ringtone again.

Done 🎉

Your normal ringtone is back and your Ringzi is now your Text Tone.

My Alert Tone isn't showing on my iPhone. What do I do?

First make sure you imported it with Use as Ringtone — just saving it to Files isn't enough for Text Tone to see it. If it still isn't showing, you can add it with Apple's free GarageBand app instead.

If your Ringzi isn't showing in Text Tone

You can add it using GarageBand:

  1. Open GarageBand and import your downloaded Ringzi.
  2. Tap Share.
  3. Choose Ringtone.

    Don't worry — Apple calls this a Ringtone export even though we're going to use it as an Alert Tone.

  4. Tap Export.
  5. When the export finishes, tap Use sound as…
  6. Choose Standard Text Tone.

Your Ringzi should now be set as your text alert sound.

⚠️ Don't choose “Standard Ringtone” — that would change your incoming call ringtone.

No “Use sound as”? Go to Settings → Sounds & Haptics → Text Tone and select the exported Ringzi there.

More questions

What is Ringzi?

Ringzi creates custom AI ringtones, alert tones, wallpapers and widgets from the descriptions you write.

Describe the music, sounds, voice, name or inside joke you want. Preview, install, download and share your finished Ringzi.

Are my first Ringzis free?

Yes. New accounts get 2 free Ringzis. You can make ringtones, alert tones or one of each — no credit card required.

If you made a Ringzi before signing up, that counts as your first free one. Creating another version uses your remaining free Ringzi.

Ringzi Unlimited is subject to our fair-use policy. If you bought AI Credits before, they still work.

Can I send a Ringzi to a friend?

Yes. Share any ringtone, alert tone, wallpaper or widget to send them a link. They can play and download it without an account, then make their own Ringzi.

How do I create a Ringzi?

Choose Ringtone, Alert Tone or Wallpaper, then describe what you want — music, sounds, spoken words or the picture you imagine. Ringzi detects voice ideas automatically, and you can edit the line and voice style before creating.

When it's ready, preview it and use the install, download or share controls.

Can Ringzi say someone's name?

Yes. Include the name and the words you want spoken in your description.

For example: “Heavy rock guitar followed by a voice shouting, Rob, your phone is ringing!”

What voices can I use?

Ringzi offers original character voices such as a movie narrator, sports commentator, robot or newsreader.

It does not imitate celebrities or other real people.

What can I create?

Create original music hooks, engines, animals, funny sounds, cinematic intros, retro game sounds, sports moments, voices, alarms or combinations of them.

Add a name, personal message or inside joke to make it yours.

Can I use my own voice or audio?

Yes. Record yourself directly in Ringzi or upload your own audio. Use it as-is, or let Ringzi add music and effects to turn it into something completely unique.

Only upload audio you own or have permission to use.

Your recordings and uploads stay private to your account unless you choose to share them.

Can I copy a song or famous artist?

Ringzi is designed for original creations. Do not ask it to copy a commercial recording, protected song or a particular artist's voice.

Instead, describe broad qualities such as “upbeat 80s rock”, “retro disco” or “cinematic orchestra”.

Can I share a Ringzi?

Yes. Use Share on a completed Ringzi or in My Ringzis. On mobile, Ringzi opens your phone's share menu; on desktop, it copies a sharing link.

Anyone with that link can play and download the shared Ringzi.

Where are my Ringzis saved?

Sign in and open My Ringzis to play, install, download, share, remix or delete your ringtones, alert tones, wallpapers and widgets from any device.

What happens if creation fails?

A failed creation never counts — not against your free Ringzis, your credits or your Unlimited allowance.

Can I delete a Ringzi?

Yes. Open My Ringzis and use Delete on a creation you no longer want.

Deleting a Ringzi does not give back the creation used.

Does Ringzi work on desktop?

Yes. You can create, preview, download and share Ringzis in a supported desktop browser.
