When somebody mentions ringtones I tend to think of a song playing out loud, but some people, rather than having a loud noise play from their phone, prefer a vibration pattern. Vibrating ringtones are perfect for those situation where you need to be able to respond to incoming emails and SMS but don’t want to interrupt something by blasting out an MP3. Ringo allows you to set custom vibration patterns as your ringtone. What sets it apart from the standard vibration built into Android is the different types of vibrations you can set up for different events. There are several different patterns including Discreet, Classic, Enthusiastic, Frenzied, and Relentless. For example, upon receiving an email my phone is set to vibrate with the pattern Discreet; it’s good for notifications that I want to know about, but that aren’t urgent enough to justify a frenzied vibration. For receiving something important (such as a phone call) I use Relentless, and it’s impossible to miss the rapid and strong vibrating of the phone against my leg in my pocket – you could even say it was as alerting as a maximum volume ringtone! The interface of the app is clean and functional and the functionality is extensive. Overall, this app is great if you want to try something a bit different with your ringtone.
