How To Get Custom Ringtones On Iphone From Youtube

Wondering how to add M4R to iPhone? It's possible to add a ringtone to the iPhone without iTunes in a drag-and-drop manner! It takes just three clicks to add M4R to an iPhone. Follow the guide below!

There are more than 1 billion iPhones in the world. Most of their owners never change standard iPhone ringtones. Why? It's too complicated.

The Verge says transferring ringtones to iPhone is counter-intuitive, outdated, and legitimately insane. It turns out – that you need a ringtone only in .m4r format and it shouldn't be longer than 30 seconds. On top of that, iTunes 12.7 doesn't let you browse ringtones on a desktop.

Ever wished you could have an m4r ringtones converter? There are two apps that will make sending ringtones to the iPhone as simple as making a call.

Psst. This quick video will walk you through the first solution in a minute.

Option 2. How to Add Ringtone to iPhone Without iTunes

Unlike iRingg, WALTR 2 is not dedicated only to ringtones. WALTR 2 helps you transfer music, movies, ebooks, ringtones on your Apple device. It supports many audio/video formats – MKV, AVI, FLAC, APE, AIFF, etc. Moreover, there is NO iTunes involved.

What's good about this whole workaround is that you are not required to trim your ringtone in any way. You can set up any full song you have as the official tune on your iPhone!

Now I assume, you already have your desired track ready in MP3 or M4A. What you need to do – is to take the file and change its file extension.

Step 1:Change the file extension of your file to M4R.

If you don't have M4r ringtones ready then take the desired M4A song & simply rename it from 'm4a' to 'm4r'. It's as easy as this. Surprisingly, there's no converting required.

NOTE: You cannot change the extension of MP3 songs. This only works for M4A.

Then you'll get the pop-up window like this one:

Make m4r ringtones and add them on your iPhone

Go ahead and confirm it by hitting 'Use .m4r'

Step 2:Open up WALTR.

The download doesn't cost a dime. The full version is priced at $39.90. Install the app and make sure to watch a short onboarding video right there 🙂 It will fully inform you about all the WALTR's superpowers!

Step 3:Plug-in your iPhone

The UI is very intuitive. You won't meet tons of tabs and settings as you can encounter in iTunes or any other utilities.

WALTR will ask you to connect your device using a regular USB cable. You can also click on the settings wheel in the right bottom corner of the app and select 'Enable Wifi Connectivity'. Afterward, you can even add m4r to iPhone via Wi-Fi.

On the other hand, with iTunes involved in the game, it gets 10x harder. To compare, you are supposed to edit its starting and ending times, convert the track to an AAC file format, change the extension to .m4r and add it to the Tones tab in iTunes. And only then you can go to Settings and select a new ringtone.

Essential WALTR features:

It's an iTunes-free way. iTunes was inevitable whenever you wanted to push a track or two to your iPhone. Now it's finally can be left behind.

To sum up:

In conclusion, there are many ways to get the best m4r ringtones for iPhone. But most of them need iTunes sync. Because they simply can't get access to all the folders you have on your iPhone. Meanwhile, WALTR and iRingg can handle everything on their own.
