How to save video sound as ringtone on iphone

How to make any video sound your ringtone on iPhone?

No matter it is a trending YouTube video, a TikTok video or a recorded remix or a video of a live DJ Battle, the plain steps to turn a video into a ringtone on iPhone can be boiled down to three: Step 1. download the video from online; Step 2. covert the video to MP3 audio; Step 3. set the audio as iPhone ringtone; And here we tell you how to accomplish those 3 steps one by one.

Hot viral videos and songs are boosting every day and surely there will be one or two of them that catch your ear like an earworm. From Wellman duets to Lubalin's Internet Drama Series to Macklemore's Trump's Over freestyle, to TIkTok Silhouette Challenge Songs - Paul Anka's "Put your head on my shoulder" and "Streets" by Doja Cat, who wouldn't want to make those great songs flow in their daily life? And here's how to make ringtone from video file on iphone:

Step 1: Download an Online Video

While TikTok allows for the direct download of a video, for other online video sharing sites, you cannot directly get the videos off-site but there are plenty of tools to help you download the likes of YouTube music videos, Facebook videos, Twitter videos, etc. Online download sites like ytmp3.com and ssstik.io can cover your basic need of a couple of videos to MP3 downloads. All you need to do is to input the video link to the URL box and click the download button to get audio directly.

While ytmp3.com is mainly for YouTube videos, ssstik.io is a great place to extract the audio from a TikTok video link.

Procedure 1: Copy and input the TikTok video URL to the ssstik.io download box;

Procedure 2: Tap the button to download the MP3 audio version.

However, for a stable download of a pile of videos, we'd recommend free tools like 5KPlayer. It empowers you to download the M4a audio directly or convert it to MP3 right after the download. We'd also recommend VideoProc, more of a converter with basic video editing features, which lets you download and convert the video to almost any format you prefer.

Procedure 1: Copy and paste the URL into the URL box of 5KPlayer on the YouTube download Panel;

Procedure 2: Click the analysis button and wait for the software to parse the info;

Procedure 3: Click the download button to save the video locally;

When you can download a video, try not to record it. Since the quality of the recorded version can be far less appealing to the ears than the converted ones. No matter how perfect a silent environment you might create, an accident can happen and you might still end up recording some unwanted sounds in the audio.

Step 2. Covert the Video to MP3 Audio

In addition to 5KPlayer, the online converter tools are also trust-worthy companions. Some allow you to download and convert the video altogether - by inputting the video URL, you can choose to download only the audio part of the video in MP3 format. However, to make piles of local videos as your ringtone/alarm on iPhone, you may need offline converter tools without uploading all of those videos online.

#1 Convert video to MP3 using 5KPlayer.

Find the video in the library and then click the convert button to convert the video to MP3 audio;

#2 Convert video to audio using proffessional converter - VideoProc.

Procedure 1: With VideoProc Launched, go to the Video tab and load the video in the converter.

Procedure 2: Choose an Music format - MP3/ACC as the target transcoding format.

Procedure 3: Click Run and you'll meet the MP3 audio soon enough.

Step 3: Make a Video Your Ringtone/Alarm on iPhone

DearMob iPhone Manager and the iPhone built-in app Garageband are both good choices to take care of your iPhone ringtone making. The difference is the user scenarios. When you only need to make one or two videos as your iPhone ringtone/alarm, Garageband is surely enough for the job. However, when you have piles of videos to be made as iPhone ringtones and alarms, we'd recommend you using DearMob iPhone Manager which offers a batch ringtones setting feature.

#1 Use Garageband to make videos your iPhone ringtones.

Procedure 1: Open the Garageband app and tap Create Song;

Procedure 2: Tap the Audio recorder and then the Editing icon;

Procedure 3: Tap the audio joinging icon to locate the audio track in your Files or Music app;

Make sure that you have all your ringtones saved in Files app or Music app for easier spotting.

Procedure 4: Choose the converted video and hard press on the track and drag.

Garageband will start importing the file, and you'll see the track appear in the editing panel.

Procedure 5: Now you can trim the audio to the length of a perfect Ringtone or alarm for iPhone.

The advised ideal audio length for iPhone ringtone is below 40s, and 25s for text tones. As for iPhone alarm sound, there's only however long you like.

Procedure 6: Go back to My Songs and select the newest song you just created and tap the arrow up share icon to share as Ringtone.

In the past, it wasn't easy to turn a video into a ringtone on iPhone or Android device, but things are much easier now with the rise of various ringtone makers and converters. If you want to make a ringtone from a video, whether it's shot by yourself or downloaded from the website, you can follow these three steps to do it.

Step 1. Convert the Video into an MP3 File with a Converter App

Everybody knows that we can't directly set a video as a ringtone unless converting it to the format supported by iPhone or Android devices. At present, the default ringtone format used for iPhone is M4R, and Andriod is MP3, M4A, WAV, or OGG. So, your very first thing is to convert videos to these formats.

To handle this conversion task, you need an audio converter like EaseUS MobiMover to help. EaseUS MobiMover is a professional video to audio converter that works perfectly to convert any video to an audio file in simple clicks. If you want to convert YouTube videos to MP3, it's also possible with EaseUS MobiMover.

To convert the video to an MP3 file:

Once the conversion completes, you can transfer the MP3 file to your Android device and set it as your ringtone by following step 3. While iPhone users need some extra steps to change the MP3 file to M4R with iTunes or iPhone ringtone maker. Since the steps involved in using iTunes to make a ringtone are long and complex, we don't recommend using it. So we will mainly aim to introduce how to make a ringtone with this iPhone ringtone maker - EaseUS Ringtone Editor. But if you persist in iTunes, you can follow our previous post on making a song your ringtone with iTunes.

Now you can follow these steps to change the MP3 to a ringtone.

Step 1. Connect your iPhone to the computer > Run EaseUS Ringtone Editor > Drag and drop the music file to the editing bar, or you can select a song from your computer by clicking "Browse."

Step 2. Rearrange and shorten the length of the song by dragging the slider to the start and stop time of the song you wish to use as a ringtone > Click "Clip" to proceed. 

Step 3. After clipping, you can add recordings and sound effects like fade-in/fade-out and emojis sound to the clip. Once it's done, click "Export."

Step 4. You can choose "Push to iPhone" to export your edited ringtone to your device or choose "Save to Disk" to save it on your computer.

Step 3. Set the Converted Song as Your Ringtone

Once you've finished making a ringtone, it's time to set it as your ringtone on your iPhone or Android. Here are the steps to set ringtone for iPhone and Android, respectively.
