# RingTune vs RingtoneMaker

The clearest difference is rating: RingtoneMaker at 5.0 against RingTune's 3.6. RingtoneMaker also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). RingTune's advantage is chart position (#193 vs unranked) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RingTune sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and RingtoneMaker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.39 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RingtoneMaker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RingTune has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

RingTune ships an update every 3 weeks, RingtoneMaker every 2 days. Both last shipped on November 13, 2026.
