I will share with you my experience, how I did it. First, I uploaded the clip I wanted, then I made a 30-second status on WhatsApp. I let only one person see my status. After that, I saved these 30 seconds and went to the PhoneGram tool. I converted the other 30-second clip to the required format. After that, I saved the new format in the files, and from the files, I made it a ringtone. I used the tool to cut the video in WhatsApp statuses. Try it, it’s easy. Thank you, PhoneGram makes a lot of tools. I wanted to share my experience with you.

How long did it take Apple to think of this method?
Was this method difficult to provide long ago?

Apple usually says that it is trying to present the feature in the best possible way, even if it is delayed.
But what I found was that it gave us the advantage, so to speak, with the 30-second limit.

Really the most beautiful picture

Unnecessary restrictions, just 30 seconds, a company that only cares about money

There was a time when we could set a ringtone that could last up to a minute or even longer using a computer. Is there a way now that we can make a ringtone that isn't limited to thirty seconds?

It is a very complicated method and there is no good ringtone that is worth this process and its inconveniences are more than its benefits. Thank you for your useful explanations.
