Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have a text tone I purchased and it works great on my phone (12 Pro) until I also set it on my iPad Pro then the phone reverts to the default tone. If I reset it on my phone, the iPad resets to the default. Only one device will play the tone at a time… (Both on latest iOS 15)
iPhone 12 Pro
Welcome to Apple Support Communities RogueClimber,
We can definitely understand wanting to use your purchased text tones on both of your devices. You should be able to use the tone on both devices without issue so lets troubleshoot a bit. Have both devices been restarted?
Use tones and ringtones with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Hope that helps!

Unfortunately the fix doesn’t stick…
Have updated iOS on both devices, have restarted both devices (multiple times) and my notification still changes back on one device as soon as I set the other device…
It has been so long since I used a windows based computer I forgot the default fix: Restart…
It took a couple tries, but now it seems to be working. Thank you for your help
RogueClimber,
Awesome! We're glad you were able to get this resolved. Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one!
