Nah, on iPhones you need to make the ringtone file using garage band, which I’m pretty sure you can only really do on a Mac or by paying for some license for transferring on windows/linux maybe? Or you need to pay for it through iTunes or another paid app. I genuinely haven’t found a way to do it without paying yet (don’t have a Mac and transfers to and from windows/linux are awful), and I’ve looked long and hard as my custom notifications were important to me..

If someone can tell me otherwise, I’m all ears tho.

Garage band is free and you can do it right on an iPhone. I’ve made several ringtones and text tones from mp3s this way.

Is that new as of 18? I’m not updated to 18, but when I was looking into it it couldn’t be done from the phone.

I did this on an iPhone 4 over a decade ago. I don’t think I’ve actually had an audible ringtone since.

I don't personally have an answer, but good luck to you!
