'Convert to Audio' Shortcut: bit.ly/3qTz3EB Wallpapers: bit.ly/3EJVq2S *Edit:* If the shortcut doesn’t appear when you press share, go to the bottom and hit "edit actions" and add the shortcut.
Thanks a bunch. I switched from my S21 to iPhone 15 pro week back. And you gave the best solution for my biggest pain point in ios which is setting a custom ringtone. Thanks again.
Thank you!! iOS 17 Beta eliminated several standard ringtones which was upsetting. This helped me regain use of my preferred tone. This video is extremely helpful and worked perfectly!
Hi, I downloaded your convert to audio shortcut. When I select the "send to" button, on the list this shortcut only says "to audio" rather than "convert to audio". when i click on it, the page for recordings comes halfway onto the screen then freezes and stays there until I darken the screen. Why is this happening, and how can I fix it?
I don't see any "Convert to Audio" among the choices after I added shortcuts. So what I did was screen record jujutsu kaisen opening song on youtube, then using safari I searched for convert video to mp3 after converting I downloaded the mp3 and it went straight to my file then I followed your garage band instruction and it worked, oh my gosh! now I can have any songs that I like as a ringtone. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
I still can’t get it to work when I get to the share part it brings up the normal share as you would a picture or link I can’t get to the ringtone option to appear
- make sure you clicked the link in his description which then prompts you to “add shortcut” - go to your photos and find the screen recording - hit the share arrow button, scroll down and you’ll see “to audio”. Tap that. (If you don’t see see it, tap “edit actions at the bottom”) - this will open your files. Select a folder, or if you don’t see ant, type in a folder name (I used “Downloads”) - tap “open” - it will save with a file name like “RPReplay” and then some numbers. At least thats how it saved for me! Good luck
It looked complicated at first, but I just did it and it was easier than I thought!! Thank you so much!! I’ve finally changed my previous custom ringtone after 5 years 😂😂
Thank you for this. Very clear steps to make a ringtone. Not able to see the shortcut option to convert to audio .. anyone who faced this and knows how to resolve it?
well it would be chaos if everyone had extreme bass boost phonk drift music going off in class/at work. imo keeping it this way makes it so people who shouldnt have custom ringtones, dont have custom ringtones
Technically it is easier than this but Apple wan't you to pay for ringtones not use it for free. These methods are work arounds, that's why it's a little more long winded
I still use ringtones and my closest contacts have their own so I can hear who’s calling 👍🏼 Thanks for making this video and especially for making the shortcut for us B! 👌🏼💪🏼
Ios17 iPhone 14 pro max. I think this worked but it does not show up on my list of text tones to chose from. It just shows default when you click on sounds and haptics and to the right of text tone. Not in the list. Not sure why. Maybe Apple did that on purpose with iOS-17🤷🏼♂️
Hey I did everything you said on the video but when I convert it, it doesn’t show up on shortcut. I can’t find it anywhere. What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Thanks for the shortcut as well as a nice latest video. This is way easier than before. I need shortcut for taking audio's for video edits. This is wonderful that it made my work easier now.
The convert to audio didn’t work for me. Having trouble to add the shortcut but after I be able to add it, I followed the instructions, I go to album, click on the screen record video and click the share button, scroll down to click the ‘convert to audio’ but then nothing happens. No file, no nothing. Do you guys know why.? Please help
Don’t know if you’re still wondering but after you do all of that you have to open it in a file because it doesn’t know which file to put the converted audio in, so just find or make a file then you press convert audio and put it in said file
@@kok0day0 I’ve found the new way and easy way to set song for ringtones from mp3 to set a ringtone from video like any video or tiktok. If you feel interested, we can exchange contact and I’ll have you out
The shortcut doesn’t copy to my shortcuts and even when I got into “edit actions” it still isn’t showing? I’ve tried to re-add/ replace and still nothing… Any help anyone?
What I'd really like is for Apple to offer a default ringtone for specific phone numbers - not for incoming calls, but for my own two or more phone lines on my dual SIM iPhone.
@@BrandonButch how do you make a specific text tone assigned to a specific contact person when creating Ann GarageBand when your exporting as a ringtone you can specify that it’s actually a text, but how do you make that once you do that to a specific contact person
Thank you soooo much!! Apple is always doing over complicated stuff, and I finally was able to set my ringtone for something I’ve been wanting to for over a year now. Thank you so much!!! (if anybody was wondering what, it’s the great strategy)
So I can't just use a song I purchased from iTunes and download the song to the phone? I was thinking of switching from android to iphone but now I'm reconsidering.
Thanks soo much for the great Vid tutorial as always Brandon, I really appreciate the excellent work, just a couple of days ago I followed your previous tutorial, this newer version with the shortcut makes the process better, although I do feel Apple should simplify the process a bit!!
@@BrandonButch Yeah That’s true, they also have their own tones store, which wouldn’t make sense for even a few that actually purchase the ringtones from there, if it’s easier to just sideload custom tones!! 😅, Thanks for the reply & keep making these awesome as well as super informative videos about the various OS features, betas & tutorials, it’s only after watching your video that I updated to iOS 17 Beta 2!! 😊
@@saflanali I'm not sure how long they will keep that around, given that they've already killed of the iTunes branding on the mainline app (and replaced it with Music).
The shortcut didn't work for me. So I converted a UA-cam song to mp3(320kbps) and followed the rest of the steps from GarageBand. Thank you so much 🙏🏼.
This seems complicated with lots of steps. I know this was to show how to do it without computer, but with a computer and itunes it is much easier. As for edit and trim the music file can't you just do that in the photos app by clicking on edit? And then select that sound file as ringtone in settings.
Great video! Thank you. Is there an easy way to send the .m4r file to someone so they can easily assign it as a ringtone? Or do they have to use Garageband on their side as well?
I just switched to iPhone after having android my whole life. Android is a better operating system but the quality of the iPhone won me over. My 15 pro max actually feels like it cost $1400 while my $900 pixel felt like a toy. Call me booshy but I like my quality craftsmanship. Plus iMessage
Thank you. It took a while, and I wish UA-cam would have allowed me to pip your video so I could follow the steps and watch the video at the same time. But I finally figured it out. Thank you so much.
Thank you! I ended up doing this a bit differently. I also used a UA-cam video (it's an old melody you'll never find anywhere else), converted it to .mp3, put it in Apple Music, converted it to .ACC, put it in it's own playlist, synced ONLY that playlist to my phone (I hate iTunes/Apple Music) and then imported to Garageband from there. Obviously I used my Mac, but it's another method. It's a shame you have to jump through hoops to accomplish extremely simple things.

Brandon? What do you do if the “convert to shortcut” doesn’t show up no matter what you do
just make the shortcut yourself
its super easy to make it yourself
Can you do an update video of this with the new official iOS 17 update? For text tones, the option does not show up anymore
I can’t see the convert to audio setting in the upload options, so what did I I do wrong?
- make sure you clicked the link in his description which then prompts you to “add shortcut”
- go to your photos and find the screen recording
- hit the share arrow button, scroll down and you’ll see “to audio”. Tap that.
(If you don’t see see it, tap “edit actions at the bottom”)
