iOS 26: Set a Custom iPhone Ringtone in Seconds

iOS 26 simplifies iPhone ringtone customization. The process now directly uses the Files app, eliminating the need for GarageBand. Users can create ringtones from MP3 or M4A files under 30 seconds. The method involves a four-step share process within the Files app. First, long-press the audio file. Next, tap "Share" and then select "Use as Ringtone". The ringtone is immediately applied and accessible in Settings. Users can manage or delete their custom ringtones within the settings menu. This streamlined approach offers a significantly easier user experience compared to previous iOS versions. The whole process occurs within the Files app, avoiding additional apps.
