How To Load Ringtones On iPhone Easy
In order to make a ringtone for iPhone without iTunes and Garageband, you’ll require a few things.

- Internet connection
- 5-10 minutes of your time
- And the song that you want to set as a ringtone.
Using 3uTools For Making Custom Ringtones
The easiest way to set a ringtone on the iPhone is by using 3uTools which is completely safe and free to download software. It never gives any unwanted notifications or ads and it is completely safe to use, as we have been using it for a while now.
Once you have successfully made your ringtone[s] you can easily uninstall the software just like that. After the software is installed, connect your iPhone and launch the 3uTools software.
How To Use 3uTools For Making Ringtone For iPhone
After launching the 3uTools, you will be greeted on the Info page. Where you can find important information like IMEI, UDID, Battery Life Cycle of your iPhone, etc.
Then head over to the Ringtones tab that you will find on the left panel or Make Ringtone on the bottom center.
3uTools will allow you to choose any music, voice memos, and even a video file that can be converted into a ringtone! For selecting the file you can choose the location either From PC or From iDevice itself. Once you have browsed your file select it and click open.
After selecting the file you will arrive at the Make Ringtone page.
On the top, you will find the file name. Just below it, there will be a graph where 3 pointers; White, Red, and Yellow will be present. The White one represents the starting point of the ringtone. Whereas, Yellow marks the endpoint. To scribble on the song, you can use the Red pointer.
Keep it in mind that the duration of your ringtone can’t go above 30 seconds so choose accordingly.
Rest you have options for Volume and Fade-in which you can change but increasing volume above 100 percent will make the ringtone sound distorted. For the best quality, we will suggest not making any changes to any of the two.
After selecting the portion for the ringtone, click the Generate Ringtone button which you can see in the above picture, pointing by a Blue arrow.
Then you will see a popup that will ask you for the ringtone name. But you should refrain from using file extensions while naming your ringtone. Once the name is given click on the Import to your iDevice button.
That’s it! Your custom ringtone is ready and is also synced to your iPhone!
Ways of Check Whether the Ringtone is Synced to Your iPhone Or Not
1. Using 3uTools Software
Click on the Ringtones on the left side under the iPhone tab. You will be shown all the custom ringtones you have created. In our case, there are two ringtones.
2. Using Your iPhone
The second method (the most favorable one) is to head over to your Sounds & Haptics options in the Settings of the iPhone and voila you will see your customized ringtones there.
