RingCraft turns your favorite tracks into personal ringtones and alert sounds — simply, quickly and precisely. Import an audio or video file, pick exactly the part you want, and export it ready to use as a ringtone. Features: • Import from audio or video files — videos keep the audio only, no picture. • Set start and end with hundredth-of-a-second precision. • Listen as you adjust: hear the start and end points. • Play the whole track, mark points by ear, and move forward or back within the track. • Smooth fade in and fade out, adjustable. • Full preview of the final sound before exporting. • Name each project — the name becomes the exported file name too. • Save projects to edit later. • iCloud sync: your projects and settings across all your devices. • Export for iPhone or Android, and share instantly — use as a ringtone on iOS. For everyone: RingCraft is designed for everyone to use, with or without sight. It is fully accessible with VoiceOver: every button and slider is announced clearly, with haptic feedback and audio preview that make precise selection easy without looking at the screen. As you adjust the start and end, you hear the music without interruptions — the time is announced when you need it. With the magic tap (a two-finger double tap) you pause and resume playback from anywhere. At the same time, the clean, modern interface is a pleasure for sighted users too. Available in Greek, English, German, French, Spanish and Italian. No data collection: all processing happens locally on your device.
