Are you looking for a way to personalise your Samsung phone? Did you know that you can customise the background of incoming calls on your device? By default, the call screen displays a video of moving gradient colours, but you can choose any photo or video from your gallery instead. Follow these simple steps to set a custom call background:
Change Incoming Call Screen Background on Samsung Devices: A Step-Step Guide
- Open the Phone app and tap the three-dot menu.
- Tap “Call background” and then tap “Background.”
- Tap the + icon to select a photo or video from the gallery.
- If you are using a video, tap the Trim button (the scissors icon) to edit it down to 15 seconds or less.
- We recommend leaving the “Use video sound as a ringtone” option turned off, as the audio in your video may not sound like a ringtone and you could potentially miss calls.
- Tap “Set as call background” to apply the image or video to all of your contacts.
If you have upgraded to One UI 5, you can also set custom call backgrounds for individual contacts. Here’s how:
- Open the Contacts app and select a contact.
- Tap “Edit,” then tap “View more” and select “Call background.”
- Tap “Background” and then tap the + icon to select an image or video from the gallery.
- Tap “Set as call background” to apply the image or video to that specific contact.
