About Custom SMS Tones

Allows you to assign custom text tones on a contact or group basis.

If you hear 2 text tones when receiving a text, disable your system text notification sound and enable a default text tone in the preferences for the app. If you have another app that is playing a tone when you receive a text, you will need to disable that functionality in that app.

If your phone doesn't allow you to set a ringtone to "Silent", please download:
http://software.roadkill.com/CustomSMS/silent/Silent.mp3 and use that. It is a 1 second silent MP3.

Please email software@roadkill.com if you have comments/questions/problems with the app. Leaving comments and ratings in the market is great, but we have no way of contacting you to respond to your comment.

This app works perfectly and is very easy to use. I've been using it for years. However, I've been recently concerned with a problem while listening to music. My music app is set to ignore notifications that aren't call tones. It works perfectly by not pausing when other notifications make noise, but it does pause with this one. Same with the YouTube and Soundcloud apps. I'm not sure if that can be fixed on your end or not, but it's been bugging me.

Having difficulty with app not recognizing text has been read and audio continuing to repeat. It broke after recent Google Messenger and Google Voice app updates near the end of February 2017. Would appreciate a fix if possible. Thanks

Works really well... When it actually works. Can't tell from one day to the next if the app will actually just stopp working for no apparent reason when you're trying to add a contact. What's worse, there appears to be no support whatsoever from the author of the app.

When it works it's great and the only app that does what I want, however every time I've downloaded it stops after a while and I have to delete and download again. It doesn't seem to have been upgraded for some time, so that may be the reason.

The first page is gone. I'm not going to turn off all my notifications for everything just to hear my friends, and I like having sound for EVERY notification, not just contacts. Refunded until fixed!

I was really angry because I thought the app had taken away the settings options. On the Note 5, press the back buttons to pull up the settings in the app. It allows to you to customize the length of the tone, disable your default tone etc. I'm happy now

I cant set default on my LG G4 ive used in on a lot of ogones without issue. Guess ill have to look for a new app

T70%
by T####:

Like everyone else I can't pull up settings on it anymore so now I hear the tone for everyone and the one for that contact at the same time... if this gets fixed I'll give it 5 stars but especially since I paid for it I expect more

I've had this since I have had an android phone. I just don't like that I have a LG Tribute 2 and can't seem to set a limit to the length of time the phone rings.

Individual contact sms tone ok; group contacts sms tone ok; working even after rebooting phone; not getting interrupted by optimizer & cleaner apps; simple & no-fancy UI; user friendly; small but robust file; cheap. I've tried all sms & call tone in the market like Ringo, & this is so far the best.

But since installing the app, I sometimes get text notifications and no actual message coming through. Not worth knowing who is trying to text you if you don't get the message...

X70%
by X####:

This app used to be great, hence why I bought it instead of just used the free version. Now I can't set my default tone for all texts so I get no notification or if I set one through my regular message settings I get the default tone with texts from personalized text tones in this app. Please fix or refund. Extremely unhappy.

If your newer phone has no menu button do a long press on the recent tasks button. This works everywhere I've tried it.

I installed the paid for version on my new phone and it acts like the lite version. I can't see any way to set a quiet time etc. All I can do is set SMS tones for contacts but no "Settings" button anywhere.

Like many people have mentioned, the settings menu is not present in a few different phones, including my Galaxy s5. It worked on my S3 without a problem.

Update 03/16/2015: For Note 4 users, and S5 ... long press the recent apps button, and settings will appear.... I paid for this app years ago, and now that I have upgraded to the Note 4, I can't use it, as there is no menu button on the Note 4. This takes away the option to set it as default

I'm a volunteer fireman and I use this app to notify me when I get a text for a fire call. Works great and no mistaking when I have a call. Used to have to carry a separate pager but this app eliminates that.

K70%
by K####:

I have figured out how to get the settings to open! Open the app and press and HOLD your left button that usually brings up all your windows that are usually open. But by holding it within the app, settings pops up in the bottom. From in there you can set this app or the lite version as your default tone manager. Then go into your texting app and turn off your tone in there and you will no longer get 2 tones when someone texts you. I'm sure Galaxy S owners can do the same.

Have used this on 3 different phones. When it works, it works well. However, it randomly stops working, and even though contacts still show custom tones, they don't play. Have to uninstall/reinstall and reset all the tones for it to work. This is very annoying.

Needs to have the 3 dots option for the settings pull down. S5s don't have a "menu" button.
