DESCRIPTION: A space for anyone who uses Apple products, appreciates what they get right, and wants to talk plainly about what they don’t. This is a friendly place for healthy criticism. You don’t have to love the company. You don’t have to hate it either. If you want honest discussion about Apple hardware, software, ecosystem choices, design decisions, frustrations, or pleasant surprises, you’re welcome here.

RULES: This is a place for:

Thoughtful critique, real-world experience, and respectful disagreement
Sharing tips, solutions, workarounds, and overlooked features
Questioning decisions without turning everything into a complaint thread
Welcoming users at any level of experience or enthusiasm

This is not a place for:

Trolling, pile-ons, or knee-jerk negativity
Brand loyalty debates
Personal attacks, sarcasm aimed at other users, or rhetorical grandstanding
Gatekeeping based on technical skill, platform history, or product ownership
Derogatory references to cults or fanboyism. I don’t actually believe those things really exist anymore. If you wanna talk about them in a historical context, that’s totally fine.

You use Apple. You think about it. (Maybe you think different). That’s all it takes to participate here.

Custom ringtone maker

GarageBand does that in the export options

Spot on. I actually figured this one out in case you haven’t. Let me know if you want a walk through or whatever. Or even if you wanna have some of the ringtone files I made. I’ve got a bunch of them from movies like Alien and Aliens, some TV theme songs, stuff like that.

Nice, Ya if you have a work-around please let me know! I managed to get the austin powers theme song working years ago and never tried anything else because it was such a hassle!

Here is the write up I did like nine months ago.

This does work, although it’s complex and tedious. However, it does also work if you connect your phone your Mac with a cable and drag the .m4r file right onto the phone in Finder; as long as the .m4r is not too long (I think it’s a 20 second maximum, but I can’t be certain. It used to be longer, but fuck you) And that should be all it takes. I frequently have problems with this, but I think it’s something I’m doing wrong and not necessarily that the process is inconsistent. However, you have to do this for all your devices. It will not sync across devices. Because fuck you .
