Finding better text alert tones

By Siobhan, 6 November, 2017

iOS and iPadOS

Hi all. I want to assign someone a special text tone. The ones on the iPhone are kinda boring, so I was loking for maybe a third party app that would have them. I would like the app to be free, though if it doesn't cost that much, Imight spring. If it's accessible allt he better. I also just want to tap a tone, decide I like it, download. If anyone knows of anything, please let me know. Oh and language isn't a problem, so if someone's worried my ears are sensitive, nope. ;)

Try iTunes Store to find the better tone

By Rafal

Hello, Just try iTunes Store, a native app to purchase a tone. Before making a purchase, you can preview it. Once you buy it, it can be downloaded and set as default. In the case of changing a device, you can also have this ringtone back. It doesn't cost a fortune , just about one Eur so go for it. I have a nokia beper which resembles me the time in the past.

Thanks for the help

Unfortunately it's about a dollar thirty here, per download, and for something that's five seconds, or less shouldn't be that expensive. I'll make do. Plus I did look in iTunes and most of what they have is mediocre at best.

what about making one?

What about making 1 with Garageband? Haven't tried it myself, but worth a shot.

I'm not that techy.

Thanks daws. I'll probably just keep scouring the web, maybe I'll find a file I can download, change to .m4r and see if that works.
