How to make a ringtone using Third Party App

RingDroid is an intuitive app that lets you create ringtones from any WAV, 3GPP, ARM, AAC, MP4, or MPE3 audio file stored on your Android phone. The process is straightforward and easy to grasp, at least after one or two attempts. The best part? It’s completely free, and you can create ringtones without your computer on hand.

Copy the song to your phone’s internal storage

The song will need to be in your phone’s internal storage before you can turn it into a ringtone. How you do this is up to you, but there are a couple of ways to do it.

   - The “retro” way would be to connect your phone to your computer to transfer it over manually.

   - Alternatively, upload the song file to your Google Drive account and then download it to your phone.

Create the ringtone using RingDroid

Step 1: Launch RingDroid. You can grab the app for free on Google Play if you don’t have it already.

Step 2: RingDroid will list all the music on your phone when opened. Scroll through the list, or use the search bar at the top, and locate the song you want as a ringtone.

Note: If you can’t find your newly downloaded song, try closing the app and restarting it.

Step 3: Tap the song title to select it and tap Trim to shrink it down.

Step 4: Adjust the markers and select a part of the song you want as the ringtone.

Step 5: Tap the download icon at the bottom-right once you’re satisfied with your selection.

Step 6: Name the ringtone and export it.

Assign the ringtone using RingDroid

First, let’s set the new ringtone using the same app.

Step 1: Tap Use as on the window that pops up immediately after exporting your trimmed tune.

Step 2: Select if you want to use it as an alarm, ringtone, notification, or any combination of the three.

   - If you’re setting it from the app’s main menu, that’s easy to do as well.

Step 1: From the main menu, tap Trimmed tones, then select the file you saved.

Step 2: Tap More, then Use as.

Step 3: Choose if you want it as an alarm, ringtone, notification, or any combination of the three.

Assign the ringtone through your phone’s settings menu

The process may be slightly different across phones and the installed Android version. For instance, on many Samsung phones, you’ll tap the Settings app, then hit Sounds and vibration > Ringtone.

The following instructions use the standard Android 10 interface.

Step 1: Open Settings and select Sound followed by Phone ringtone.

Step 2: Select My Sounds.

Step 3: Choose your desired ringtone.

Assign the ringtone through your phone’s contacts menu

If you think a number of contacts deserve their own custom ringtones, you can set individual ringtones in the Contacts app. Just follow the steps above to make a ringtone, then assign it in the following way:

Step 1: Open Contacts and select your desired contact.

Step 2: Tap the three dots in the upper-right corner.

Step 3: Select Set ringtone.

Step 4: Choose your desired ringtone for that contact.

Again, the process may be different on your Android phone. For instance, the Samsung Galaxy A10e requires a tap on the contact’s Edit button to change the ringtone.
