The clue is in the name when it comes to RingToneMaker Pro, it’s an app that creates ringtones for your iPhone. Load the app, choose a song and a 10-30 second segment of it, then at the touch of one button, it’s created. Then it’s a simple matter of connecting your iPhone to iTunes and a couple of clicks of cut and paste. Voila, one new ringtone. No more suffering that damn Marimba or Piano tune.

As you can see from the screenshots, there really isn’t much to look at with RingToneMaker Pro, it’s all very functional. Its unique selling point is in its ability to adjust the pitch and playback speed. This can make for some entertaining ringtones. You can make any song you like sound like Barry White is singing it, or you can make it sound like Alvin and the Chipmunks’ are strutting their stuff. Admittedly after fiddling around with the settings, I still ended up sticking with the original version of the song. But it’s nice to have the option and I’m sure others would be keen to have a silly sounding ringtone.

It’s all quite simple but works for the most part. There’s even a link to a handy video tutorial so that it’s obvious what you need to do via iTunes. The only real irritant is that you can’t easily preview the song. You can once it’s completed and saved of course but there’s no way of doing it on the fly. It would have been very useful if you could tell where you were in the song rather than simply having to guess the correct timings.

Other than that, RingToneMaker Pro does exactly what the name suggests. Sure you could do it yourself for free via the PC/Mac but using this method is much quicker and simpler. If you’re someone who likes switching ringtones regularly and fancy hearing your songs in an entirely different light then this is well worth a look.

LITTLE WORLDS RELEASES VERSION 2.0 OF CLEVER APP WHERE IS MY PHONE?; FIND YOUR MISSING IPHONE BY WHISTLING AND IT RINGS!; HIT TOP 5 PAID APP IN SEVERAL COUNTRIES

Expanded to allow 3 voice ringtones, upgraded navigation system, 30 ringtones made louder, increased whistle detection frequency

Trick your friends – whistle and your iPhone rings with your own voice messages, pig grunts, ambulance sirens, explosions, music, and burps

The new upgraded version 2.0 of Little Worlds Studio’s clever application Where is My Phone? – currently available on the AppStore – includes several iPhoner-requested improvements. The original iPhone app, launched on February 3, immediately skyrocketed to the Top 5 Paid App positions in several countries including France, Germany, Italy, and Spain.

Where is My Phone? makes it easy to find your missing iPhone. Instead of wasting time looking though desk papers or coat pockets, just whistle and your iPhone rings with your voice messages or with 30 other ringtone choices.

“We revamped the app according to customers’ suggestions and we developed a lot of new features,” said David Chomard, CEO of Little Worlds. “’Where is My Phone?’ is now easier, quicker, and more fun.”

Six New Improvements
New navigation system activates the app with a single click as a complement to the iPhone’s sleep mode.
Users can now record 3 different ringtones using their own voice.
Louder sound for ringtones you record.
Microphone detection error on iPhone 2G corrected.
Frequency increased to detect whistles more accurately.
Performance optimization to make the battery last longer.

Ringtone Choices
Ringtone choices have been expanded to include creating three of your own self-recorded voice ringtones instead of just one. iPhoners can have even more fun with their own voice messages such as “Hey idiot! Answer the phone!” or “I’m calling you from the police station — HELP!” or any other message they can think of…they are limited only by their own creativity.

iPhoners can also select among 30 other ringtones including music (pop, rock, jazz), musical instruments (piano, horn), animal sounds (cat, dog, pig, frog, cow, etc.), human sounds (laugh, cry, baby, ouch, and bodily noises including burps and farts!), and “life” sounds (ambulance, explosion, electricity).

Trick your friends with “extreme” bodily sounds
Pre-set the “Burp” ringtone and stand next to a friend. Whistle and your iPhone burps. Blame it on your friend. Or, pick the “Fart” ringtone. Whistle and your iPhone farts. Then watch the surprised faces of those standing near you!

YouTubeIf you watch American Idol you already know what I’m talking about. If not, check out the video below. The ringtone is available in Cydia from the modmyi source. Just search for “pants on the ground.” It took a few tries for me to get it to download but I did get it to work.



iPhone App Review: Auto Ringtone

iPhone App Review: Auto Ringtone is a post from: Best Iphone App Review Website

I had the opportunity to review the app called Auto Ringtone. This is brought to you by the same creators of 100sounds app. This app is a program that will translate text to speech. It offers several different voices to change the appeal to different customers. You simply type your name and the name of the person potentially calling and it turns it into a custom message for you to use as a ringtone.

Auto Ringtone Pros:

The pros of Auto Ringtone are that it provides a way to customize your entire cell phone contacts list. You can designate the ringtone to anyone in your contacts list and when the person calls it will tell you who is calling before you even take the time to look at your caller ID. Auto Ringtone also give you the ability to preview the ringtone before transferring it to your device and change the voice to your preference.

Auto Ringtone Cons:

screenshot_302This app has some cons. The voices all sound a little to computer generated to me. In the future this app could use a selection of more “human” sounding voices. This app only has one message that it allows you to use. A wider selection of messages to customize would be a nice thing to see in the future of this app.

Over all I liked this app. It provides a good way to know whether or not to answer your phone at odd times in the night. This app is well worth the money.

Pros:
- Neat Concept
- Functions Great
- Preview option

Cons:
- Voices are too Computer Generated
- Needs a wider selection of messages

I give this app a solid 8/10 for a good concept and great functionality. It’s also fun to hear what your name sounds like in a robot voice.
