Best tones I heard in a long time

### 1/5 — Good, but….

*2022-12-20, version 3.07*

There are some great ringtones. But instead of just been able to tap a selected tone, and use as a ring/text tone, the whole rigmarole of connecting to computer downloading/searching/dragging/dropping etc etc etc… it’s just too much bother ! Shame.

### 1/5 — Its bad

*2022-06-21*

I cant hear any thing so i need to hear

### 1/5 — Can’t even hear the sounds

*2021-10-10*

IDon’t understand why you can’t even hear the sounds before you connect to iTunes

### 1/5 — In see it in phone but don't know how to make it a ringtone

*2021-07-07*

How does one install from just showing up to actually using it?
