For those who are looking for how to convert an MP3 file into M4R file for using it in your iPhone or any Apple products, then you are at the right place to get the best easy solution. When you own an iPhone, it is very irritating when you download or purchase any MP3 file online for setting it as a ringtone. Because iPhone or Apple products do not support MP3 file format for ringtones. All these products of Apple supports only M4R format when it comes to setting the ringtone. This is one of the biggest drawbacks of having an iPhone with you.
Right from applications to music files, we use the iPhone store, iTunes to download or purchase which is not a very big task but the only thing which I doubt the most is that why Apple is not allowing us to use our favourite MP3 files as ringtone? This is not fair and because of this I stopped using my iPhone. We cannot find much music files in .M4R file format out in the web. All of them are available in MP3 format. So whenever we download an MP3 file and thought of using it as ringtone then the only way to use it as ringtone is by converting it to M4R file.
I thought of finding some best easy solution for this disadvantage and I have come up with some easy solutions in this article which I bet that you will find it very much useful and will love sharing it with your iPhone friends. Okay so let’s get into the solutions.
