:optical_disk: What Is This?

Turn any YouTube audio into YOUR ringtone. That’s it. No subscriptions, no accounts,
no nonsense. Just you, your music, and a ringtone that’s actually yours.

Load a file. Pick the good part. Save. Done. :sparkles:

:thinking: Wait… What’s an .HTA File? Is It Safe?

Great question! Let’s clear this up:

Is it safe? Open it in Notepad and see for yourself! Every line of code
is readable. No secrets, no malware, no funny business. Just clean code
doing exactly what it says. :shield:

The app automatically downloads:

  • yt-dlp (YouTube downloader) - ~10MB
  • ffmpeg (audio processor) - ~80MB

These are stored in a hidden tools folder next to the app.
One-time download, works forever. :tada:

:busts_in_silhouette: Who’s This For?

→ You want a custom ringtone but don’t want to pay $1.29 for 30 seconds
→ You’re tired of the same default ringtones everyone else has
→ You want THAT part of THAT song as your alarm/ringtone
→ You’re not “tech savvy” and just want something that works
→ You appreciate tools that respect your time and intelligence

:open_file_folder: What It Supports

Drag These In:
MP3 • WAV • M4A • AAC • OGG • FLAC • WMA • MP4 • WebM • YouTube URLs

Get This Out:
MP3 @ 320kbps (the good stuff)

:wrench: Requirements

├── Windows 7, 8, 10, or 11
└── Internet connection (first run only, to download tools)

That’s it! Everything else is handled automatically. :glowing_star:

Download :backhand_index_pointing_down:

:dizzy: Quick Start

  1. Double-click Ringtone Maker.hta
  2. (First time only) Wait for automatic tool download
  3. Load audio (drag file or paste YouTube link)
  4. Click & drag on waveform to select your clip
  5. Hit “Save My Ringtone”
  6. Celebrate :tada:

:locked: What About Antivirus Warnings?

Some antivirus software gets nervous about .hta files because they CAN
run code. But here’s the thing:

  • The code is 100% visible (right-click → Edit with Notepad)
  • It only downloads from official sources (GitHub)
  • It doesn’t touch anything outside its own folder
  • It’s been tested and is completely safe

If your antivirus complains, you can:

  1. Add an exception for the file

  2. Or just read the code yourself and see it’s harmless!

                      Made with ♥ for people who just
                   want things to work properly.
