Changing notifications on Skype Android

[Bluesofa]

 

Is there some way to change the notification sound for incoming calls, but not using the Android default list?
The Android ones are all very short tones, when I want a noisy, long burst of tone, otherwise I miss it.

 

For incoming mobile calls I can use non-Android sound files which are a lot louder and longer. I can't see how to access them when trying to change the Skype settings. Is there a way?

Is there an option to use a custom sound? 

I don't use Skype and different android versions have different options (or so I discovered on an upgrade)

Since posting on here ten days ago and seeing no replies, I asked around in an Android forum.

There they suggested installing Solid Explorer and creating a folder in internal memory with the sound files I wanted.
Then when I came to change the sound notifications in Skype and in Line, I was prompted to choose Solid Explorer. This allowed me to navigate and change folders to the one I created and select my own ringtone .mp3 files.
