Want your Android phone to play your favorite song when you get a call? If so, set your song as the default ringtone for all or some callers. We’ll show you how to do this on your phone.

Use a custom song as the default ringtone for all callers
To have your song play when you receive a call from any (non-specific) caller, use your phone’s Settings app to configure this option.
Start by launching Settings on your Android phone. In Settings, tap “Sounds and vibrations”.
On the “Sounds and vibrations” page, select “Phone ringtone”.
On the “Phone ringtone” page, in the “Ringtone” section, choose “Ringtone from internal storage”. This will allow you to choose your song from your storage.

And you are ready.
From now on your phone will play your selected song when you receive a call from any caller. Enjoy!
