Free Ringtones: Preview and Download as MP3 or iPhone M4R

Yes. All free ringtones on RingtoneGenerator are free to preview and download, with no sign-up, no account and no app. Each ringtone download is a plain MP3, or an M4R built in your browser, so there is nothing to install. They are for personal use as a ringtone, text tone, notification or alarm on your own devices.

Right here. Press iPhone (M4R) on any sound and the iPhone file is made in your browser. On iOS 26 or later you can also download the MP3 and set it from the Files app.

On iOS 26 or later, open the MP3 in the Files app, touch and hold it, tap Share and choose Use as Ringtone; the file must be under 30 seconds, and every sound here is 30 seconds or less. On older versions, connect the iPhone to a computer, drag the M4R onto it in Finder (Mac) or Apple Devices or iTunes (Windows), then pick it in Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Ringtone.

Download the free ringtone as MP3, open Settings > Sound & vibration > Phone ringtone, tap My sounds, then + and pick the file. Menu names vary by phone and Android version.

Open Settings > Sounds and vibration > Ringtone, tap + at the top and choose the MP3 you downloaded. You may need to tap Allow the first time.

Yes. On iPhone, open Contacts, pick the person, tap Edit, then Ringtone. On Android, open the contact, tap the three-dot menu and choose Set ringtone. The tone has to be on the phone first.

MP3 is the common audio file Android uses for ringtones. M4R is the ringtone file an iPhone takes from a computer; inside it is AAC audio, like an M4A. RingtoneGenerator gives you both from the same sound.

Because songs belong to their artists and labels, and a free site cannot give you the right to copy them. Every ringtone sound here was made for phones. To use a song you own, make a custom ringtone from it.

No. These sounds are for personal use as ringtones, text tones, notifications and alarms on your own devices. For a video, an app or anything commercial, use sounds with a license that allows it.

Yes. Silent Ringtone is a file with no sound. Set it on one contact and their calls stop ringing, while every other call still rings. Turn on vibration if you still want to feel it.

Open Classic Rings or search old phone. Old Telephone Ring and Vintage Telephone bring back the bell of an old desk phone, the old fashioned phone ringtone many people still want and a ringing sound everyone knows.

Yes. Animals has a dog barking ringtone called Dog Barking at the Moon, plus bullfrogs, roosters, a horse whinny and seagulls; search the animal by name. For something sillier, Out of Space Dog sits in Funny.

Each one is 30 seconds or less, and many are shorter. Phones repeat a ringtone until you answer, so a short sound is fine. An iPhone takes up to 30 seconds from the Files app and up to 40 seconds for an M4R synced from a computer.

A ringtone sound effect is a short noise used as a ringtone instead of a tune: a phone buzz, a doorbell, a siren or an animal call. Phone Effects, Sirens & Alerts and Animals hold most of them, and each ringtone effect downloads as MP3 or M4R like any other free ringtone. Press Edit to make one shorter or louder.

Usually the file is not an M4R, did not finish syncing, or is too long for the Files app method. Download the M4R again, sync it with Finder, Apple Devices or iTunes, and look at the top of the Ringtone list.

Try a shorter word in the search, or make one: the AI ringtone generator writes an original tune from a description, and the name ringtone maker says your name.
