To see them or set them? Well. Turns out they do mean to see them.

"Currently in the Google Contacts app for Android (used on Pixels and some other Android devices), users can set a custom ringtone for incoming calls and messages for contacts through the contact listing itself. It’s not a difficult process, but over time it can be a little overwhelming as there’s no easy way to know which contacts have custom ringtones and which ones do not.

That’s what Google is about to change.

As spotted by @AssembleDebug on Twitter/X, Google Contacts is preparing a new “Ringtones” section of the app that lists any contacts with a custom ringtone and makes it very easy to set a new ringtone. Users are able to simply tap “Add contact ringtone” which, apparently, opens a list of your contacts and allows you to select one to set a custom ringtone for.

It’s much more straightforward and obvious compared to the current solution."
