Sod it I'll just say it
APPLE IS CRAP

Note 7 anyone 

Aha
Sore point that. I'm back on me note 4 while I wait for next year's note but I'd still never go for apple as I couldn't cope with the cornered system.
Gawd you even have to pay to put a tune on and use it as a ringtone!
No thanks

It's a while since I did it but you take an MP3, save the section you want to use, I think it's a 30 second limit, and then rename it as a ringtone file. No doubt it's on YouTube but you can defo do it

I think you have to first buy the tune in iTunes first.
I maybe wrong but my mate likes Apple and has a 2 grand mac book and he says you can't do it other than jailbreaking the fone

There you go :-

No need to jailbreak or buy the music from Apple. Just rip a CD to iTunes then use that

[jtc]

Nice one cheers, I'll pass that on.
Still a faf compared to Android though

[jtc]

I like the way I can download anything I want onto Android freely and do what I want with it. Also have removable sd cards and generally customise everything to my liking.I think it's more fun and user friendly for my tastes.
Like anything we all got choices and feel different needs from our devices

I'd seriously be thinking about going back to an old Nokia if things like Google Maps weren't so useful.

Especially following the recent debacle of the Samsung Galaxy "explode-a-phone" and Apple removing their earphone socket so they can charge even more for their wireless earphones.

Some of the advances in tech have been amazing, but far too many now are "How can we rip off the punters even more?"

^Tiny adapter comes with the phone. I use Bluetooth anyway but you can use the plugin ones as well.
