Making a ringtone for your iPhone without using GarageBand is still possible with a few alternative methods. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to create a custom ringtone for your iPhone:
1) Start by screen recording on your iPhone while playing the song you want as your ringtone. To do this, swipe up from the bottom of your screen to access the Control Center and tap on the screen recording button. You can also add the screen recording button to your Control Center through the Settings app if it’s not already there.
2) Once you have finished recording the song, stop the screen recording by tapping on the red bar at the top of your screen or by accessing the Control Center again and tapping on the screen recording button.
3) Now, you need to convert the recorded video file into an MP3 format. To do this, you can use an online MP3 converter tool. There are several free online converters available, such as OnlineVideoConverter, where you can upload your recorded video and convert it into an MP3 file.
4) Once you have converted the video file to an MP3, you can transfer it to your MacBook Pro using AirDrop. Simply hit “Export” on the online converter and select your MacBook Pro from the AirDrop options.
5) Now, you need to connect your iPhone to your MacBook Pro using a USB cable. Open the iMazing software on your MacBook Pro, which is a third-party app that allows you to manage your iPhone’s data.
6) In iMazing, navigate to the “Ringtones” section. You should see a list of existing ringtones on your iPhone.
7) Drag and drop the MP3 file you converted earlier into the Ringtones library in iMazing. This will import the MP3 file as a custom ringtone.
8) Disconnect your iPhone from your MacBook Pro and open the Settings app on your iPhone.
9) Go to the “Sounds & Haptics” section and tap on “Ringtone.” You should now see your newly imported custom ringtone listed among the other ringtones.
10) Select your custom ringtone, and it will be set as your iPhone’s ringtone.
By following these steps, you can create a custom ringtone for your iPhone without using GarageBand. It may seem like a lengthy process, but it provides an alternative solution for those who do not have access to GarageBand or prefer different methods.
