Cool Ringtone 2.1.0.0
One of the apps that is made for this purpose is Cool Ringtone and it provides access to a pretty well equipped database of sounds you can listen to and keep onto your mobile phone.
Colorful GUI with average graphics
The appearance of this app has a decent design, with pleasant graphics and colors. The easy to use interface makes it possible to access all the ringtones in a simple manner.
Navigating through the various sections and lists of sounds is done less smoothly because of the delays in loading the next set of ringtones when browsing the list of items hosted inside the app.
The utility hosts a stream of continuously changing advertisements and they seem stuck to the bottom of the screen all through the app. The ads are accompanied at application startup by a prompt to rate the app and when exiting you will be asked to try out a third-party utility.
Search for fresh ringtones or browse the main list
Cool Ringtone offers a selection of popular sounds that are displayed as soon as you open the application. There is no indication with regard to the criteria for adding those items in that area, like downloads, user ratings and so on.
At any given moment you can visit the search section and use it to track some ringtones you want to keep. The results appear relatively fast and in decent numbers, so you might find quite quickly some sounds to your liking.
Listen to the ringtones or save them with one tap
When you want to keep a certain sound, you only have to press the dedicated button and it will be added immediately to the "My Download" area of the app. From there, you can play it and set it as the default ringtone.
Transferring the sound files to the local storage can be done, but only after purchasing a license to unlock this feature. On the other hand the playback is free for every track and assigning the audio as the default ringtone or simply including it in the ringtone database can also be done with no difficulties or restrictions.
