Different ringtones for known and unknown callers

Is there a way to have different ringtones for known and unknown callers? I.e., one ringtone for callers in my Contacts list, another for everyone else?

Hello jimbobrae,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you have questions about assigning ringtones to unknown callers. There is not a way to do this ,as the only way to assign a ringtone to any caller is by having them in your contacts list. This article outlines how to customize ringtones for contacts: Use tones and ringtones with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


We hope this helps.


Cheers!
