History

[edit | edit source]

The service originated as a popular website called smashTheTONES which soon evolved into Mobile17.com.[1] This Boston-based mobile startup creates ringtones available to every mobile phone user in the United States via an online toolset and applications for the iPhone and Android-operated devices.[2] Among the first to provide custom ringtones online,[3] Mobile17 rose to prominence after mentions on Tech TV’s The Screen Savers,[3] CNet,[4] Life Hacker,[2] Men’s Health Magazine[5] and Popular Science.[6]

In 2006, Popular Science called Mobile17 “the easiest way” to create ringtones online.[6]
