How to Turn Apple Music into M4R Ringtone on Your iPhone

"I am trying to convert some of my favourite Apple Music files to ringtones on my iPhone 7. It has been pretty confusing maneuvering iTunes to do so, so I'm looking for a much easier way to do so."

So how to create custom iPhone Ringtones (m4r files) from Songs in Apple Music?

M4R iPhone Ringtone

Created by Apple, the M4R file type is utilized to produce custom ringtones on the iPhone. Tone files for iOS have to be in the M4R format. In actuality, such files are in Apple's AAC format, which generally have the file extension of M4A. It is similar to MP3 but compresses the digital audio files further. You change the A to an R (for ringtone!) and then it will work with iTunes on Mac or Windows for that singular purpose (leave it as M4A and it's just another song to iTunes). The end goal is to sync your iPhone with iTunes, then all the M4R files become available to assign to contacts. You can have a different phone call or text alert for every person you know梱ou'll know who's getting in touch without ever taking the phone out of your pocket.
