How to put your own ringtone on iPhone for free

What can I say, Apple is very good. They have made the process of setting ringtones not from the list very difficult. They give us this option, of course, but it’s so confusing on purpose that many people find it easier to pay 1 than to figure it out. But we’re not like that. We’ll get to the end. Let’s go!

• This is going to be the easiest. We need to download from the Internet MP3 tune for the future ringtone. We all know how to use such sites, so we are not going to discuss this point.
• We download the GarageBand app. This is an original Apple app, so there won’t be any problems.
• In the app itself, you first press “Continue” a few times, then you get to the home screen.

We are interested in the “Audio Recorder” screen.

Simply tap on any part of the screen and the recorder will start and click on the “Tracks” button.

The picture on the screen changes a little. We need to click on the button with the loop on it.

Then we go to the sound menu and click on the “Files” tab at the top. And the blue line “View objects from program files” appears.

After we click on this blue bar, the files themselves will open. Either your song is right on this screen, or look for it in the “Browse” tab. You’ll figure it out without me.

I had the song in the recent. To get the song from the list into the editor: Hold down the line with the song, move your finger a little to the left, and put the song at the beginning of the audio track.

Then, in the upper left corner, click on the arrow or triangle. And then tap on the “My Songs” that pops up.

Your ringtone is ready. But it’s not over yet). Continue reading!

And now your ringtone needs to be put on your ringtone or something else to use. Moving on:

It needs the very last line, “Share.”. Yeah, I wasn’t expecting that either) Thought it would be “Use as” or something

Sharing. And here’s the whole “Export Song” window in front of us. Well, click on “Ringtone”, I think we have intuitive readers).

The next step is to change the name from “My Song” to something else. I did not invent anything and used the name of the song itself. After that press “Export”. This process doesn’t take long.

Then tap on “Use sound as”.

Choose where to play your hit song.

After selecting, the window disappears. You will be back in the Recent. We do not need more “GarageBand”, close it.

The ringtone is already in use where you want it to be. You can check it by going to “Sounds and Tones” settings. Or in the settings of the contact to whom you have assigned your ringtone.

The easiest way to delete a ringtone is to go back to “Sounds, Haptic Signals”, find our ringtone and swipe to the left, click on “Delete”.

Whew, that wasn’t easy. But you saved a whole dollar). Write us in the Комментарии и мнения владельцев how many ringtones you created with our help, and we’ll calculate your savings).
