Here Are All the New iPhone Ringtones in iOS 26

[MacRumors]

In iOS 26, Apple has quietly included seven new ringtones to alert you to calls, messages, and other audible notifications. Keep reading to learn what's new and how to hear the new sounds.

The iconic "Reflection" ringtone – introduced in 2017 alongside the iPhone X – now has multiple alternate versions in iOS 26. While the original tone retains its familiar pellucid xylophone melody, the following new variants bring different energies to the classic:

• Buoyant
• Dreamer
• Pond
• Pop
• Reflected
• Surge

You can find and select the new ringtones in Settings ➝ Sound & Haptics ➝ Ringtone. Tap the chevron next to Reflection to expand the list and reveal the new versions.

The new versions keep Reflection's signature rhythm but each adds its own character and beat. Like the original, they can be used as both a ringtone and an alarm sound. You can listen to the new Reflection mixes yourself right now by hitting play on the embedded X post below.

In an extra Easter egg, Apple also added a new ringtone called Little Bird, which is distinct from the new Reflection options.

Hmm, ever since I had my AW for like 10 years I've been enjoying the sound of silence, aka vibration...

I have ringtones on all of my devices.

When I get a call, my place sounds like a choir 😀.

Same, never could go back. I got a garmin, but same thing lol.

I think I've used Old Phone since my iPhone 3G. I will never change it because it's boring and predictable.

 

[bailsafe]

These... aren't particularly good, especially when compared to the last batch of new ringtones

 

[apparatchik]

They sound fresh, though I have all my devices on silent mode during the day and DnD at night, so I never deal with the ringtone.

 

[uacd]

Waiting for 10 hour "reflected" version on Youtube

 

[Unity451]

This one must be for all those people who haven't figured out how to put their phones on silent yet.

[Taq'aix]

Haven’t used a ringtone since the iPhone 4s. LOL!

 

[Qountdown]

I like dreamer and reflected.

 

[sleeptodream]

Not great. Reflected is okay, but is a little “Christmas-y”

Apple should put more effort into their sounds and ringtones, compared to what my Galaxy has they’re pretty bad :/

 

[aohus]

yall are hard to impress. dreamer and little bird are my favorites

 

[Ntombi]

I like buoyant the best, but it’s moot, since I haven’t had my phone ring in years.

 

[Hammerd]

They suck af.
Probably AI variants of the original ringtone

 

[Black_Mage]

I was planning on using Reflected until I heard Surge. I am diggin' Surge.

 

[emulator]

Anyone using stock ringtones is a tool, they made it easier to use your own, no need for garageband exports anymore.

 

[svish]

Definitely one of those will be my default ringtone. Will check them out once I update my device.
