Airtel, Jio, Vodafone Idea: How to set caller tunes easily on your number

Caller tunes are a neat feature that allows your callers to len to a pre-selected section of a song of your choice while they wait for you to pick up the phone. Lening to a song while waiting can be a more pleasant experience for some compared to lening to the classic ringtone endlessly.
Caller tunes were once a paid feature, but are now offered for free all major telecom operators in India. Here’s how you can set a free caller tune on your Airtel, Jio numbers. Keep in mind that caller tunes are not free on Vodafone Idea. Note that you will require an active internet connection for this, so make sure you’re connected to either Wi-Fi or Mobile Data.
