Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Make Ringtones for iPhone at freemium against Ringtones's subscription. Make Ringtones for iPhone also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (47% vs 34%). Ringtones's advantage is ratings volume (41K vs 1.7K) and rating (4.4 vs 4.2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Make Ringtones for iPhone sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Ringtones sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Ringtones holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ringtones has 41K ratings behind it against 1.7K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Make Ringtones for iPhone's written reviews are positive against 34% of Ringtones's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Make Ringtones for iPhone ships an update every 11 days, Ringtones every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
