Ringtone Maker: turn any video or song into a ringtone

Turn a clip from your favourite song, or the sound from a video you shot, into a ringtone in about a minute. Choose the file, pick the best part on the waveform, preview it, and download it ready for iPhone or Android.

It’s free and runs right in your browser: no app, no computer, no sign-up, and your files are never uploaded to a server.

How to make a ringtone

  3. Tap Preview to listen, and adjust until it sounds right.
  4. Download it: M4A for iPhone, MP3 for Android.

How do I set it on my phone?

On iPhone (iOS 26 and later): open the file in the Files app, then Share → “Use as Ringtone”. On older versions you use Apple’s free GarageBand app. On Android: Settings → Sound → Ringtone → Add from device.
