EDIT: Full instructions added: Custom iOS alert sounds. Currently I am making a bunch more from Alien. Personally, I like assigning each of my most frequent contacts their own custom sound.
#INSTRUCTIONS
Here is the complete set of instructions, including both iOS-only and Mac/iTunes-based methods, combined into one cohesive guide for creating and transferring a custom ringtone or alert tone to multiple iOS devices.

Talk about convoluted.
- Yep, just do it in macOS using any audio editor, save up to 40 seconds as AAC M4A file, rename to .m4r and drag&drop onto your phone/iPad in Finder. Done.
  
  Drag and drop where on your phone or iPad?
  
  Your iOS devices should appear in Finder if they’re either connected via cable or in the same WiFi. Click the device to open the overview page in Finder. Drag&drop the .m4r file from another Finder window onto the overview page. The ringtone will be installed.
  
  yes.
