The Apps You Need to Make a Ringtone

In order to create a ringtone on your iPhone, you will need:

  • Your iPhone to be running iOS 11 or later.
  • A recorded voice memo of up to 40 seconds saved to the Files app.
  • The GarageBand app downloaded to your iPhone.

Pro Tip: When you record a ringtone, you can always set up another device to play your favorite song or a pre-recorded sound. This way you don't need to re-create a brand new ringtone-worthy voice memo!

You will need to have the voice memo saved within your Files to use it to create a custom ringtone. Keep in mind that you can use the voice memo to record a sound played on another device if you don't wish to make a unique recording using your voice or playing an instrument. This is how to make an audio file a ringtone on your iPhone!

A ringtone has to be up to 40 seconds long. If your voice memo is longer, you do not need to re-record it. You can trim it in GarageBand. To learn more about iPhone ringtones, sign up for our free Tip of the Day newsletter.

Pro Ringtone Tips

Remember that a ringtone will repeat itself until you pick up. If your voice memo recording is short, it can get annoying faster. You can combine two or more voice memos in GarageBand and even add instruments to make it more complicated. Just make sure to keep it under 40 seconds total. If you are wondering how to make a screen recording a ringtone, you can follow these same steps. Just have another device with good speakers play the recording while using your iPhone to record it as a voice memo. You can transfer a file from your iPhone to another device using AirDrop.

Now you know how to get custom ringtones on your iPhone! Create your unique iPhone ringtone sound by recording voice memos. You can create an original GarageBand ringtone for all your calls, text messages, or assign a special sound for all your loved ones. You can even create an individual ringtone as a text tone and another as a ringtone for a single contact. The only limit is your imagination!
