Application Description

Ringtone Maker is an innovative app that empowers you to craft personalized ringtones, alarms, and notifications from a wide range of audio formats, including MP3, FLAC, OGG, WAV, AAC(M4A)/MP4, 3GPP/AMR, and MIDI files. With this free app, you can effortlessly cut your favorite parts of songs and save them as ringtones, alarms, music files, or notification tones. Creating your own unique ringtones is both fast and user-friendly. You can precisely set the starting and ending points of your audio clip by sliding arrows along the timeline, using the Start and End buttons to mark your selection, or by entering specific time stamps. Ringtone Maker serves not only as a ringtone creator but also as a comprehensive music editor, alarm tone maker, ringtone cutter, and notification tone creator.

In addition to editing existing audio, you can record your own voice or your children's voices and transform them into personalized ringtones or notifications. It's a delightful way to be reminded to answer calls with the sound of your child's laughter or voice.

If your music doesn't appear in the app, remember that the Android system can be slow to update its music database. You can use the "Scan" menu in Ringtone Maker to force an update. Note that Google Play Music files are hidden and inaccessible by other apps. A workaround is to access Google Music via the Chrome browser on your phone, select the desktop site, download your desired song, and then use Ringtone Maker to edit it.
