### 4/5 — Good app

*2022-07-05, version 8.5.1*

This app is ok or good. You guys said it was free but some of the AlertTones were not free.

### 2/5 — Not all it claims to be

*2020-11-24, version 8.5.1*

Only a free boring tones are free all decent tones (stretching it slightly) you have to pay for!

### 4/5 — Cool

*2020-04-26, version 8.5.1*

Does it

### 3/5 — FAQQQ

*2018-01-13, version 8.5.1*

I still don't know how to do all the steps to get the ring tone........😥😥.   Fuck😡

### 3/5 — Blue towels hang by purple towels

*2016-03-09, version 8.5.1*

This app is alright I guess...not really great🙄

### 2/5 — Way too complicated

*2015-11-25, version 8.5.1*

Free tones are nice but there are way too many steps to save to phone. You have to save to a file on iTunes and make a folder and blah blah blah. Free comes at a price.

### 4/5 — I like it a lot

*2015-08-22, version 8.5.1*

It's fairly AWESOME

### 3/5 — Meh. Nothing special

*2015-02-07, version 8.0.3*

These aren't all that different from iPhone alerts. They're synthesized sounds that are only slightly different from each other. Nothing really unique imo.

### 2/5 — Not very user friendly

*2014-12-14, version 7.5.0*

The "screen grabs" on the previews are completely fake. It is just a list of 60 tones with no description of what any of them are (eg. Alert tone 1, Alert tone 2). So unless you are happy to sit there pushing tone after tone and writing down the numbers you like, this app is not worth it.

### 5/5 — Free ringtones

*2014-11-03, version 7.1*

Great app for free ringtones on iPhone

### 4/5 — B/s

*2014-11-03, version 7.1*

It's ok

### 1/5 — Bad

*2021-11-02, version 8.5.1*

Ads in an alarm app and you have to pay to make your own sounds absolute garbage.

### 1/5 — Too complicated

*2020-12-01, version 8.5.1*

It’s way too complicated and I just wanted a app that will make my ringtones different

### 1/5 — Free means free

*2020-07-05, version 8.5.1*

It’s a lie, nothing is free if it takes a credit card. Be honest and people might not mind paying. Not for me

### 1/5 — Too much work for a ringtone

*2020-03-06, version 8.5.1*

....super weird that it seems I need to go on my phone, then go on my computer to iTunes, then go back on my phone to get a ringtone for my phone.

### 1/5 — A pain to use

*2019-05-05, version 8.5.1*

What a waste of $1.99. The thing the dev fails to mention is that you have to connect to iTunes and go through an ordeal to install the ringtones. That would have been fantastic to know before spending time to find the perfect tone and then spending $1.99 to unlock it. Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2019-01-09, version 8.5.1*

Not free

### 1/5 — Piece of junk app

*2017-06-15, version 8.5.1*

I followed the directions on the app and followed the instructions on the video.  Thing just does not work.  Don't waste your time.  Glad I only experimented with the "free" stuff.

### 1/5 — Nope

*2017-06-09*

Awful

### 1/5 — A joke to install

*2016-09-16, version 8.5.1*

Not sure where this "ease of use" is coming from. Spent 30 mins trying to transfer the file from iTunes to the my 6s but it just wasn't happening. The new iTunes interface doesn't even match the interface in the help video.

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2014-10-19, version 7.1*

I will call this computer generated noise. Obnoxious and annoying. Guess that's why it's free. I can't delete this fast enough.

*2015-11-29, version 8.5.1*

A bit of a carry on transferring tones to my phone but that was me, I think.
