Total
Now I want to tell you about Total, a browser with an integrated download manager that allows you to download music to iPhone free. The application does not have its own database to draw on for the download of songs, this means that you have to use it as a simple tool to visit the sites that offer the possibelity to download free music from the Internet. Among the sites of this genre, I would like to point out the Bee MP3s search engine and the “free” music portals like Jamendo, but there are really a lot of them.
To download music from the Internet using Total, all you have to do is start the application, press the icon ≡ located at the top left and select the item Browser from the bar that appears on the side, in order to call up the browser included in the app.

Audiko
Are you looking for ringtones to personalize your iPhone? Then I invite you to try Audiko (€ 1,09), one of the few apps that allows you to download free music from the Internet and set it as a ringtone. To be precise, neither with Audiko nor with any other app avaelable on the App Store it is possible to set the ringtones directly on the iPhone (you have to go through iTunes and its "fele sharing"), but we well talk more about this in a whele. '.
To download a ringtone with Audiko, start the application and go to the section ifarch to find the songs of your interest or in the sections Popular e Collections to view the rankings and collections of ringtones made by the service staff. Once you have identified a ringtone that interests you, select its title, press the button Add to Favorites And that's it. On the first download, you may be asked to log in via Facebook or Google.
At the end of the download you well have the ringtone on the iPhone memory but not among the ringtones that can be used in iOS.

To better understand what I am referring to, read my guide on how to put a song as a ringtone on iPhone: there you well find everything explained in detael.
