How to Change the Alarm Tone on an Infinix Phone

If you’re someone who struggles to wake up in the morning, having a reliable alarm is essential. Luckily, most smartphones, including Infinix devices, come with a built-in alarm feature, even older models usually have it.

The reason this feature is commonly included is because of its practical use. Like a traditional alarm clock, it helps wake you up or reminds you of something important. Naturally, it comes with a ringtone loud enough to get your attention.

However, the default alarm tone isn’t always ideal. It might be too soft, too harsh, or simply not to your liking. Fortunately, you can easily change the alarm ringtone to something more suitable, even to a song from your own collection. Here’s how to do it:

1. Setting the Alarm

First, you’ll need to set the alarm. Most users probably already know how, but if you’re unsure, follow these simple steps.

Open the Clock app on your Infinix phone. Alternatively, you can tap the clock or time display on your home screen. Once the app opens, tap the green plus (+) button at the bottom center of the screen to create a new alarm.

Use the scrolling feature to set the time you want the alarm to go off. You can also choose whether the alarm should repeat by tapping the letters representing the days of the week. When a letter turns green, it means the alarm is set to repeat on that day.

To customize the ringtone, tap the Ringtone or Alarm sound option. You can choose from the available tones or select a song from your device. You can also enable vibration and add a label (or name) to the alarm by tapping Label.

Once you’ve adjusted all the settings, tap the green SAVE button at the bottom to activate the alarm.

2. Changing the Alarm Ringtone to a Default Tone

Once you’ve set an alarm, you can easily change its ringtone using one of the default tones provided by the phone. Just like before, start by opening the Clock app or tapping the time display on your home screen.

Next, select the alarm you’ve created, then tap Ringtone. You’ll see a list of built-in tones such as Happy Piano, Beeping, Bell, and more. Tap on any of these options to preview and select your preferred alarm sound.

Once you’ve made your choice, simply tap the back arrow and then press the green SAVE button. Your alarm will now use the selected ringtone.

3. Changing the Alarm Ringtone to Your Favorite Music

In addition to the default tones, you can also customize your alarm with a song or audio file of your choice. This can make waking up feel more pleasant and personal.

Before doing this, make sure the music file you want to use is saved on your Infinix phone in MP3 format. If it isn’t, download the track first.

Then, open the Clock app and select the alarm you’d like to edit, or create a new one. Tap on Ringtone, and at the top of the screen, choose Add new. Browse your files to find the song you’ve prepared, then select it.

Once the new sound is added, tap the back arrow and hit SAVE. That’s it, your alarm is now set to play your chosen music.

Using your own music as an alarm tone is a great way to wake up in a better mood. Just make sure not to pick a song with too soft or mellow a tone, as it might be hard to hear, unless you turn the volume all the way up.

For reference, this tutorial was created using the Infinix HOT 12i. If you're using a different Infinix model, the steps should still be quite similar. Good luck!
