Ringtone Maker is a versatile app designed to help you craft personalized ringtones, alarms, and notifications from a variety of audio files including MP3, FLAC, OGG, WAV, AAC(M4A)/MP4, 3GPP/AMR, and MIDI. With this free app, you can easily extract the best segments of your favorite songs and save them as your unique Ringtone, Alarm, Music File, or Notification Tone.

Creating your own ringtones is quick and straightforward. You can set the start and end points of your clip by sliding arrows along the timeline, pressing the Start and End buttons to mark the exact points, or by directly inputting time stamps. Ringtone Maker isn't just a ringtone creator; it also serves as a comprehensive music editor, alarm tone maker, ringtone cutter, and notification tone creator.

One of the fun features is the ability to record your voice or that of your kids and transform these recordings into personalized ringtones or notifications. Imagine being reminded to answer a call by the sound of your child's voice!

Music Not Showing Up?

If your music files don't appear immediately, remember that Android can be slow to update its music database. You can use the "Scan" menu within "Ringtone Maker" to force an update. Note that Google Play Music files are hidden and can't be accessed directly by other apps. As a workaround, you can use the Chrome browser on your phone to access Google Music, select the desktop site, download your desired song, and then use "Ringtone Maker" to edit it.
