  5. Note: Make sure the length of your ringtone is within 30 seconds, as this is the maximum duration allowed for a custom ringtone on an iPhone.
  6. Save and export: Once you are satisfied with the trimmed section, tap on “My Songs” in the top-left corner and then tap on “Select” in the top-right corner. Finally, tap on “Share” and choose “Ringtone”.

Step 3: Set Your Custom Ringtone
