Free Online Ringtone Maker
Pick the perfect 40-second snippet from any track and export it as an iPhone .m4r or Android .mp3 ringtone. No upload, no app install.
If you want a custom ringtone on iPhone, the file usually needs to be an M4R ringtone file rather than a full MP3 song. M4R is the ringtone version of AAC audio, and the short length matters because iPhone ringtone workflows commonly reject or shorten clips that are too long.
If you are making a ringtone for Android, MP3 is usually the simpler choice. You can trim the sound in GrepCut, export MP3, then set it from your phone's sound settings or a file manager app.
The useful part is the trim. A full song rarely starts exactly where you want your phone to ring, so you can cut straight to the chorus, beat drop, spoken phrase, alarm sound, or clean intro before exporting.
A ringtone clip can be personal: a voice memo, a family recording, a private demo, or a sound from a project. GrepCut keeps the trimming step local in your browser, so you do not have to upload the source audio to a converter site just to cut a short clip.
This is especially helpful when you only need a tiny section. You can load the audio, choose the few seconds that matter, and export the finished ringtone without installing desktop audio software.
Can you make an iPhone ringtone from an MP3?
Yes. You can use an MP3 as the source file, trim the part you want, then export an .m4r ringtone for iPhone.
Can you make an Android ringtone from the same song?
Yes. Choose the same clip and export it as MP3. On Android, you can usually select the file from sound settings or a file manager such as Files by Google.
Will your music be uploaded?
No. The trimming runs in your browser, so your source audio stays on your device.
What is the maximum ringtone length?
GrepCut lets you trim up to 40 seconds for iPhone-style ringtone exports. If your phone or iOS workflow requires a shorter clip, trim closer to 30 seconds before you export.
Why does your M4R not show up on iPhone?
The common causes are length, transfer method, or using the wrong place in Finder, Music, iTunes, or GarageBand. First make sure the clip is short, then follow the ringtone import method that matches your device and operating system.
Can you convert Apple Music or Spotify downloads into ringtones?
No. DRM-protected or subscription-only music cannot be converted here. Use an audio file you own, created yourself, or have permission to edit.
Do you need iTunes or GarageBand to trim the ringtone?
No. You can trim and export the ringtone in GrepCut. Depending on your iPhone and system version, you may still use Finder, iTunes, GarageBand, Files, or Settings to add the finished ringtone to the phone.
