What Is A Ringtone

 
Author: Tyrone Nazer
With cell phone use at an all-time high, people look for creative and individual ways to distinguish their phone's ring from another person's phone. Because of this, ringtones were developed, which are sounds made by the phone for incoming calls or voicemail. These ringtones are customizable and can be set for the type of call or the actual caller. For instance, if you wanted to distinguish your child's incoming call from friends, the ringtone would be customized.

For the ringtone to work, a program is installed in the phone. Different types of phones offer preset sounds. As as example, you might get 10 installed ringtones for a Nokia or Kyocera phone, 12 for a Siemens or Samsung, and 16 for a Sony or Motorola phone. Keep in mind that in addition to the preinstalled ringtone offered by the phone manufacturer, you could also download a ringtone from the internet using the phone or directly from your computer.

The bottom line is that while functional, a ringtone is fun. You will find people that have South Park, Rod Stewart songs, The Simpson's, or any other type of ringtone imaginable downloaded to the phone. Now, when you download a ringtone, you pay. Depending on the ringtone and its popularity, the price could be one dollar to several dollars. After buying a ringtone, you would have a certain number of days, usually 30, in which it would need to be downloaded. Once the sound is on your phone, you can use it how and when you want.

Today, owning and using a cell phone is fun and practical. Although some types of ringtones are annoying and distracting, most are enjoyable and intended for practical use and fun. While a ringtone is important to the cell phone user, helping him or her to identify incoming calls, if misused, the ringtone can be a real public nuisance.

For instance, if you are in the movie theater, you will see a quick message for everyone to turn their phones off. Unfortunately, some people fail to do this and right in the middle of the movie's climax, you hear some obnoxious song or noise. The same would be true in business meetings. People often carry personal phones everywhere they go. Forgetting about the South Park ringtone, they find themselves embarrassed while trying to close a deal when the phone rings.

Therefore, if you want to enjoy unique ringtones on your phone you should but be aware of your surroundings and take steps to turn the ringtone off when appropriate.
