Ringtone Studio turns your favorite songs into custom ringtones — right on your iPhone. No computer, no cables, no complicated steps. ■ Made for iOS 26 iOS 26 added a "Use as Ringtone" option to the share sheet, but it only accepts audio that is already 30 seconds or shorter — and it gives you no way to trim. That's exactly what Ringtone Studio does. Pick a song, choose your start point, and tap once. Your ringtone is installed in about 15 seconds. ■ Millisecond precision Most ringtone apps ask you to drag a waveform with your finger, which leaves you off by a tenth of a second or more. Ringtone Studio lets you set the start point down to the millisecond, so the chorus begins exactly where you want it — no clipped intro, no leftover reverb from the previous bar. Preview from your chosen start point before you commit, then adjust until it's perfect. ■ Features - Create ringtones from music already on your device - Set the start time by minutes, seconds and milliseconds - Choose any length up to 30 seconds - Fade in and fade out - Test playback from your start point - Snap the start point to the end of the track with one tap - Install directly through the iOS share sheet ■ No subscription Many ringtone apps charge weekly or push a paywall in the middle of your work. Ringtone Studio doesn't. There is a single banner at the top of the editing screen, and it never interrupts what you're doing. ■ Before you start Songs must be downloaded to your device and free of DRM protection. Tracks streamed from Apple Music, and older purchases with copy protection, cannot be used. The app shows you only the songs that will work. Requires iOS 26 or later.
