Part 1: Can I Use YouTube Music as A Ringtone?

Can YouTube music songs be directly set as iPhone or Android phone ringtones? Actually, you cannot directly set a YouTube Music song as your ringtone due to some restrictions. YouTube Music allows Premium subscribers to download songs to their devices for offline listening, but these downloads are encrypted and can't be accessed directly from your device's storage. This makes it challenging to extract and use the downloaded songs as ringtones. If you have no idea how to do so, you should grasp the idea below.

Part 2: How to Download Ringtones from YouTube Music

Tools Needed

If you subscribe to YouTube Music Premium and use the download feature, the downloaded music is not an MP3 file but a separate encrypted file type.

Therefore, in this article, we will use a special software called KeepMusic YouTube Music Converter to download MP3 files.

KeepMusic YouTube Music Converter is a great helper to convert songs from YouTube Music to MP3 with lossless quality. Better yet, it requires no Premium subscription to access the whole catalog of YouTube Music and get all your favorite songs with ease.
