1. Restart your iPhone. This may seem like a simple step to take but can often resolve several issues.


2. Be sure you're running the latest software version. Completing this step ensures that your device has the latest fixes. Secure your data with a backup. The latest version available for your device is iOS 17.0.2: Update your iPhone


If you continue to experience the same behavior, connect with Apple directly. They will be able to assist you further:

this does not help as the custom text tones (listed with ringtones) are not accessible when i try to add them to an ALERT or TEXT TONE.

The custom tones are still accessible in the RINGTONE list and accessible as a RINGTONE>.

THose custom text tones that are with contacts are still working but not working with specific ALERTS !

I spoke to a senior advisor and she told me engineering is aware of the issue and working on a solution
