You can, but it is unnecessarily complicated to make retards buy ringtones from itunes.

when will this whole ricing shit end? custom ringtones are just as bad as ricing
>>
>>51525120

No.

You've been able to have custom ringtones since the first iPhone in 2007. Where did you hear this shit?
>>
>>51525120
You can, but only songs downloaded from iTunes.

It is possible but it is overly complicated.

Just can't make this level of corporate-kekoldry up. It's something that's distilled into its users and harvested through years of advertising and literally eating shit with their hands.

Is it even possible to use midi ringtones? :^(

You can but it's extremely complicated and annoying, I gave up

except im using a 50$ android phone because obsessing this much over your fucking phone is retarded and counterproductive
>>
>>51525722
It used to be settable from the settings.
Now you have to do it from the music player and that doesn't work for notifications.
Why not just make a graphical setting where the user can navigate to the file?

Almost anything you just mentioned adds any thing in the way of better functionality. Changing animations? Who cares? No app titles? Now you're removing functionality for the sake of looks. Ricers really are retarded.
>>
>>51525351

Ringdroid is easy, and it's what most of these people will cite as "easy", but it's still pretty appalling that you need a third-party augmentation to perform such a basic task on a platform as allegedly "open" as Android.
>>
>>51525351

wow that was hard. Or just change your ringtone from settings? Fucking mong

Is suppose your desktop is full of shortcuts to every program you've ever installed? Why not?

last time I set a custom ring tone was years ago, when I was in primary school

So would you be fine if blowjobs set the ios ringtones to moaning noises of disappointed/pleasured teens?
>>
>>51525284
> using options built into the mobile os is ricing

Are you some sort of commie faggot?
>>
>>51526158
A) not just adding the option in the setting is weird.
B) going to the music player and selecting that as a ringtone only works for ringtones, not notifications.
I have always just put the file in the right folder but even that is hard and you cannot expect people to install special apps or root their phone to do this.
>>
>>51526270
>root their phone to do this.
What the fuck am I reading

We're talking about ringtons, not notifications. Are we on the same page you and I? Yeah changing notifications is a different issue entirely but still it's possible without root and you can personalize ringtones for different contacts without a hassle.
>>
>>51526385
why is it different?
In the past 10 years I have seen the decay of the mobile operating systems and it is weird that they have removed the option to do a simple thing like changing the notification / ringtone via the settings.
Going to the music player that is so bad few people use it and long press is not the intuitive way to change a fucking ringtone.
Complain all about ios is hard to use because of shit like this but it is just as bad on android.
>>
>>51526507
How are you even alive
>>
>>51526766
Android is an OS solely used for communication devices, but it is really bad at communication.
Who is the imbecile that included a long scrollable list of shitty notification options and not just adding an option to let the user pick a tune.
Installing third party applications or rooting the device for something that basic is really pathetic.
It is like not including a way to search through contacts.
>>
>>51526889
You don't need a 3rd party app for ring tones, although you can get an apps that you can get certain tones from, you can just set a ring tone from settings and select browse audio on phone. You should probably try out an android phone that's not from 2007
>>
>>51526889
Say that to the 10,000 apps on android dedicated to communication, also the communication apps already built in
>>
>>51527057
right.
A bunch of different tools, all with their different settings and no "easy" way for the user to select the sound the phone makes when it receives a notification.
Who thought that was a good idea?

We had phones that were near perfection before android came along.
Now we have to settle with the mediocre bullshit and rely on third party tools or live without features that are so easy to implement and should just be there in the system.
The reason android got adopted was the ease of installing more bullshit and great communications application but you cannot have the OS manage what fucking sound is playing when you receive such a message?
You cannot seriously blame apple for making it hard to change call/notification sounds when it is just as convoluted on android.

Go to settings and click add ringtone, then select the song or music file you want to make your ringtone, is this complicated for you to understand are so you want me to dumb it down and talk to you like a 5 year old
