So we’ve been having fun adding ringtones to our iPhones. We’ve created some unique and original ringtones, drawing on our library of game music, and Molly’s voice. We thought we’d share them with you.
What makes these ringtones different than some you may find is that they are completely legal. That’s because we haven’t sampled or stolen or copyrighted music or audio. Instead, we’ve composed these ourselves, or have used sound effects from legal sources to create the ringtones.
You can get them at our Free iPhone Ringtones page. There, you can also subscribe to a podcast through iTunes that allows you to get new ringtones downloaded automatically and added to your iPhone.
