How to Use Music as a Ringtone on Your Smartphone

Do you want to make your smartphone stand out with a unique ringtone? You can create your own custom ringtone with any sound you like. Whether it's a recording of your child, a signature tune from a TV show, or something else entirely, you can use it as your ringtone. To do this, you'll need to download the free GarageBand app from the App Store and make sure the song you want to use is on your iPhone. You can sync it with iTunes or download it to another application.

However, you can't use “protected” songs, such as those on Apple Music; the song must not have DRM (digital rights management).To find out what time you should enter in the boxes, you'll first need to listen to the track and write down the start and stop times. The stop time must be within 30 seconds, since this is the maximum duration of a ringtone. The file should now be highlighted in the window that opens and should be called something, m4a (where “something” is the name of your song). If you can't see the.

m4a part (that is, you only see “ikson day off” and not “ikson day off, m4a”), it's because Windows is configured to hide the extensions. Apple removed the iTunes bloat in version 12.7, eliminating the App Store and several other things, including Tones, which was where you could easily see all your ringtones. To do so, connect your iPhone to your laptop or computer with its Lightning cable. If you're using Windows 10, tap “Trust this computer” when it appears on your iPhone screen. You may need to disconnect and reconnect the USB cable if this message doesn't appear, unless you've done this step before. However, it's not a good idea to use a 30-second song as a text message alert.

And, in case you're wondering, there's no difference between a “song” and a sound effect in iTunes, so you don't have to use part of a song from your music library as a custom alert tone. On the home screen of your smartphone, tap Apps. Use the following links to download music with Samsung Music or upload files to your device from your Windows PC. Once you've downloaded or purchased music files to your Galaxy device, you can choose to set them as ringtones.
