Do you have a song or some kind of music as your phone’s ringtone ?

If so, what is it ? This has been mine for the last six years and I’m considering changing it.

I do not, but this post is reminding...inspiring me to at least try and figure out how to do that. 🙂

I've had the "smart" phone for over 3 years, and have been far from smart in figuring out everything about using it. To be fair to myself, I haven't tried all that hard. I would, if I hadn't been able to afford to (so far) keep my landline.

That's awesome, brings nostalgia and good vibes.
I don't have one, just playing splashy fish as the background for calls. I need a ringtone.

Yes, my ringtone is from "Trois Gymnopedie" by Erik Satie, which was part of the first record I ever bought for myself "Blood, Sweat & Tears" (the album with "Spinning Wheel" and "You've Made Me So Very Happy").

@DragonFruit That’s a beautiful version of that piece. 🥹
DragonFruit · 70-79, M
@bijouxbroussard Yeah, the ringtone isn't quite as nice....but I still enjoy hearing it.

Many. Yet all are downloaded. I don't want to depend on any site for the sounds on my cellphone. Storage isn't a problem when you have a terabyte SD card.

I use these ringtones even for notifications and alarms. Someone like the owner of my apartment calls, texts or emails, I know who it is by the notification sound.

Have other apps use these sounds as well. Like Stepcounter goals reached.
@DeWayfarer But you don’t want to share any of them ? I wasn’t asking where you got them.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@bijouxbroussard Can't. They are not in mp3 Format.

This site wouldn't let me upload it without it being in mp3 or mp4 format. And why they take up so much room. No compression.
@DeWayfarer Okay.

Actually, I don't. Funny since i come from such a musical family.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@bijouxbroussard I have no idea how to describe it. Often I get calls in the car via Bluetooth and the car's signal is what I get.
@samueltyler2 It’s probably on YouTube. That’s where I found mine.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@bijouxbroussard I really should find another sound. I am upset that on Google maps in my car, I cannot choose different voices and cars. Did I tell you that I discovered YouTube doesn't allow nude videos? Funny, since there are so many on it.
I just use the old phone ringing.

One of the women I worked with had “if I only had a brain “ from Wizard of Oz, as the distinctive ring tone - for her husband.
@Mamapolo2016 Oh, that’s funny (about the woman’s ringtone for her husband). I have a ringtone for Pop, "Hold On, I’m Coming" by Sam and Dad. It’s actually one of his favorite songs going way back.
@bijouxbroussard I love that song too.
I've never owned such a device but if I did, I'd use this because I've always liked it for its majesty:

@rinkydinkydoink You don’t have a cellphone ?
@bijouxbroussard

I'm hopelessly behind the times... I've never even used one.
@rinkydinkydoink I’ve had the same one for about 7 years now. It helps when I’m away from home but I’m not addicted. If you’ve gotten by without one, more power to you. 👍🏽

Who can it be now
by Men at work was my ringtone for many years
now it's just some random one that came with the phone
OldBrit · 61-69, M
I do it's actually something I composed and recorded some years back. It's just a loop of the riff. Can't mistake my phone for anyone else's 😂

No. Just the jangly chimes it came with, a bit like a rather bad version of a 1970s Pacman game.

Can't see the point of using regular music for it. Nor those silly imitations of old-fashioned American telephone bells. (Not even correct, in the UK, which has always used double-burst ringing.)

I have the last few seconds of this clip as my general ringtone 😂

@Zaphod42 I love it !
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
My phone has stayed on silent for 10 years lol
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@DearAmbellina2113 I get u so many scam calls, i consider doing the same, only listening to messages is left
2ndtimeguy · 61-69, M
I use the Twilight Zone
@2ndtimeguy That’s a great choice. The original ?
2ndtimeguy · 61-69, M
@bijouxbroussard yes unless your old wont know it lol
@2ndtimeguy A surprising number of young people watch the reruns. 😄
It's giving "we ride at midnight, my fair maiden" I like it
@HijabaDabbaDoo Someone saying those words ?

Mine is Davy Jones' Locker by Buckethead

It really sounds like a ringtone
caPnAhab · 26-30, M
@bijouxbroussard what do you think you'll change yours to?
@caPnAhab I’m not sure yet. I’ve had some unusual ones over the years like the theme from "The Persuaders":

@bijouxbroussard that is a strange. Sounds good as a ring tone though
sarabee1995 · 26-30, F
Lol, nope. Just a silent buzz. 🤷‍♀
