Instructions

1. convert audio files to .m4a, then rename to .m4r:

   ffmpeg -i some_tone.wav some_tone.m4a
   mv some_tone.m4a some_tone.m4r
   

2. mount the /Media/ directory of your iOS device to your local filesystem (this does not require a jailbroken device):

   mkdir ~/iPhone_Media/
   ifuse ~/iPhone_Media/
   

3. copy your .m4r files to ~/iPhone_Media/iTunes_Control/Ringtones/:

   cp ~/Music/Ringtones/*.m4r ~/iPhone_Media/iTunes_Control/Ringtones/
   

4. install ioscustomringtones with pip:

   pip install ioscustomringtones
   

5. pass the directory you mounted to the generate_ios_ringtones_plist command (see more options below):

   generate_ios_ringtones_plist ~/iPhone_Media/
   

    Usage: generate_ios_ringtones_plist [OPTIONS] MEDIA_DIRECTORY
   
    reads existing `.m4r` files in `/Media/iTunes_Control/Ringtones/` and
    writes `/Media/iTunes_Control/iTunes/Ringtones.plist` on an iOS
    device
