@futurebird My dad recently asked me how to cut the beginning from a song & use the rest as a ringtone. Turned out the "song" was a link to a YouTube video.
My brain just went blank ... maybe if he installs YouTube on the phone, it'll let him remix the video & download ... no, probably not ... maybe he can get youtube-dl & ... never mind, no way I can explain all that to him.
Sometimes I think it's also just getting harder and harder to actually help. Everything's so closed off & limited.
