Tired of ringtones that jolt you awake? Upload your favorite song and add a gentle fade-in so it starts quietly and builds up. Perfect for alarm clocks that won't give you a heart attack.

You can also add a delay before the sound starts playing, or trim the audio to just the part you want. Everything works right in your browser – no app to install, no account needed.

What you can do:

What are fade-in and fade-out effects?

Yes! The WAV files created by FadeTone work on both iPhone and Android devices. For iPhone, you may need to convert to M4R format. For Android, WAV files work directly as ringtones.

What is the maximum file size I can upload?

The file size limit depends on your browser's memory. Most modern browsers can handle files up to 100MB without issues. For best performance, we recommend files under 10MB.
