We all have our go-to notification tones to let us know if something is happening on our phones. Whether it’s an incoming text or tweet, or a new email message, we need that notification tone to alert us that something is up. And when you’re using your phone for hours at a time, it can be hard to keep track of which app is by the ringtone alone. So some apps will theme the sounds so you can recognize them at a glance. The best apps for notification tones and ringtones are Ringtone Maker, Pi Music Player, and Zedge. 

What is a Notification Tone?

A notification tone or ringtone is a sound you hear on your phone when you receive a call, text, email, or other notification. The most common type of notification tone is a ringtone. Ringtones are also known as alert tones, call alerts, and sound effects. It can be set to play for all notifications or just for certain ones. The phone’s ringtone is usually set as the notification tone, but it can also be any other sound. For example, some people use their voice as their ringtone.

There are many different types of notification tones, including:

  • Ring Tones: The most common kind of notification tone is a ringtone.
  • Text Tones: Text tones can be set to different sounds for each contact in your phone’s contact list.
  • Email Tones: Email tones can be set to different sounds for each reference in your email account’s address book.

How to Choose the Right Tone or Ringtone?

These days, everybody can have their ringtone and notification tone. So, how do you choose the right one for you? There are a lot of factors that influence your choice of a notification tone or a ringtone. 

It would help if you considered the following:

  • Your personality
  • Your mood when you want to use it
  • The type of phone you have (either an iPhone or Android)
  • The kind of phone call or message it will be associated with
