RINGTONE

Ringtones are the sounds or melodies used to alert mobile phone owners to incoming calls or messages. They have become an essential part of personalizing one’s phone and can reflect an individual’s personality, preferences, and culture. Ringtones can be customized by users, downloaded from online stores, or come pre-installed on phones. Some ringtones have gained widespread popularity and become cultural phenomena, such as the Nokia ringtone or the iPhone’s Marimba. With the increasing use of mobile phones, ringtones have become a lucrative industry, with companies offering various options for users to purchase or create their own unique ringtones.
