Love the idea of the vibration sound effect as a ringtone! I might add it actually, great suggestion :)
Adding the ringtone on iOS is a pain in the ass, I was thinking to add a step by step guide right on the website... Apple provides a guide in their support articles (https://support.apple.com/en-us/120692), it's not difficult but I don't understand the reason honestly. It should be simple with a .m4a file from the Music app, but you need the computer
I agree that for example when the phone is on a table or on a hard surface vibration can get really loud. Having it on your wrist it makes perfect sense
Mmm, I thought I fixed that! I should probably try them on a few different phones with different speakers. Thanks for the feedback, I'll try to fix them and will let you know
Weird, I only hear the pop noise when playing the sound from my iPhone browser. After downloading it and importing it into Garage Band (in order to create a ringtone), the pop noise went away.
My laptop also doesn't play the pop noise.
Regardless, great tones! I'll use the quite ones on for unknown numbers :)
Glad you like them! Keeping it simple was the goal. Indeed I stopped at 4 variants, and they already feel like too many :D
Then you fall into the trap of making them a bit more original, and then a bit more, and then a bit more. But that would defeat the initial purpose of the project.
Hahaha, I'm interested in the project with the cows, did you manage to train them? Anyways yes, the 90s style classic phone ringtone is an all time classic and used it for many years as a ringtone
It's good to have a few to differentiate the different sources, call, txt, signal, random app, etc.
Plus different people hear different tones differently,
and different tones or patterns are better in different environments. An otherwise ideal sound might be very difficult to hear in someone's work environment, and some other sound that is functionally equivalent but just at a different pitch or with a different speed of repeating pattern or pulse would stand out much better.
There's lots of reasons for a wide variety that are hard practical functional and not expressing individual style.
A long time ago on a Treo my favorite was a bird chirp, because it was a natural sound that carried (for the same reason it carries for actual birds) but mostly because it clearly contrasts from all the artificial sounds I was surrounded by. It's nothing like any other beeper from a microwave or dead battery or open fridge or anyone else's phone for that matter.
That makes a lot of sense. 101 for example will hardly be heard in a crowded place.
I think these ringtones (especially 101 and 102) are more for people who almost always have their phone on silent and when they decide to turn on their ringtone they still want something very subtle
Haha, I respect the full-time vibrate lifestyle :) But yeah, that was exactly my purpose: a ringtone a that is just a little bit more than having vibrate mode on
