How to set a song as your iPhone ringtone

Firstly, you should know that there are two ways to set a song as your iPhone ringtone. The first is by using iTunes to create a ringtone from a song in your library, and the second is by using a third-party app to download and set a ringtone.

Creating a ringtone using iTunes:

Step 1: Open iTunes on your computer then select the song you want to use as your ringtone.

Step 2: Right-click on the song and select ‘Get Info.’

Step 3: Click on the ‘Options’ tab, and then set the Start Time and Stop Time for the part of the song you want to use as your ringtone. You can listen to the song to determine which part you want to use.

Step 4: Click ‘OK’ when done and then right-click on the song again.

Step 5: Select ‘Create AAC version.’ This will create a copy of your song that is only the length you specified in the Start Time and Stop Time.

Step 6: Right-click on the copied song and select ‘Show in Finder’ on a Mac or ‘Show in Windows Explorer’ on a PC.

Step 7: Change the file extension of the copied song from .m4a to .m4r. This will convert the song into a ringtone.

Step 8: Drag and drop the .m4r file into iTunes, and it will appear under Tones.

Step 9: Connect your iPhone to iTunes and select it from the Devices menu.

Step 10: Go to the Tones section and select ‘Sync Tones.’

Step 11: Select the ringtone you created earlier and click on ‘Apply.’

Step 12: On your iPhone, go to ‘Settings’ > ‘Sounds & Haptics’ > ‘Ringtone’ and select the ringtone you just created.

Using a Third-Party App:

Step 1: Download a ringtone app from the App Store, such as Zedge or Ringtones for iPhone.

Step 2: Open the app and navigate to the song you want to use as your ringtone.

Step 3: Tap on the song and select ‘Download’ or ‘Save.’

Step 4: Open the ‘Settings’ app on your iPhone and go to ‘Sounds & Haptics’ > ‘Ringtone.’

Step 5: Select the ‘+’ button to add a new ringtone.

Step 6: Navigate to the downloaded song and select it.

Step 7: Set the song as your ringtone by clicking on ‘Done.’

Overall, there are different ways to set a new ringtone on your iPhone. If you’re looking for a more personalized experience, you can use these steps to set any song as your ringtone. While the process may seem a bit complicated at first, it’s a great way to add some uniqueness to your device.
