Open Picmal, drag your MP3 files into the window, choose M4R as the output format, set your quality, and click Convert. Everything runs locally on your Mac.
Yes. Drag in as many MP3 files (or a whole folder) as you like and Picmal converts them all to M4R in one pass.
M4R is lossy, and re-encoding from another lossy format can lose a little quality. Choosing a high bitrate (256–320 kbps) keeps it transparent for everyday listening.
Connect your iPhone, drag the .m4r file onto it in Finder (or iTunes on older macOS), then choose it under Settings → Sounds & Haptics → Ringtone. Ringtones are limited to 40 seconds, so trim long tracks first.
