how to make a Google purchased song into a ringtone?

[ansa82]

So I purchased a song on Google but I don't see any option to make it a ringtone?

Download an app called Ringdroid and see if that will do it. There is nothing native to Android.

Install Zedge from the play store and look for the song as a ringtone. They have more than you can imagine for free.

Install Zedge

Looked at Zedge once, but way too much overhead for what you get. For me anyway.

Doesn't look like Ringdroid will do it, at least not with any song that I've marked for download to my device.

If you jump through the hoops of downloading it as an mp3 file on your computer and then transfer that file to your device Ringdroid should be able to work on it then.

Just use Audacity on the computer to do it. That's what I do. Then you can do fade in and fade out for the ringtone. Or other audio adjustments. Audacity is the best free audio editor for Windows.

Overhead? Its all free. If free is overhead then what else is left.

Overhead is all the crap that comes with the app.

As far as I can tell nothing else installed when I installed the app. Yes it has a lot of things you can download but unless you download it no crap is installed.

Unless you are referring to in app ads I don't know what you are talking about.

I think copy write laws prevent you from messing with music files purchased on Google play, it happens with a number of online music stores.
