Accessibility Comments

The only thing is, the music in built music browser that apple have given app developers does not read the track titles, artists, playlists, what ever you are browsing by.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads all page elements.

Button Labelling

Most buttons are clearly labelled.

Usability

The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver and is easy to navigate and use.

Other Comments

The only buttons that aren't labeled are to choose a pre created ring tone length, but they have a play button next to them, so you can here the ring tone.
I usually go for the suggestions, as trying to edit your own is a pain, unles you just want the first part of a track.
It usually knows most tracks, but it might not know some of them. But this is the case with any music recognition survice.
It has clear instructions in the app, and the adds don't really get in your way, but it will ask you every time you've finished creating a new ringTone, to upgrade to the pro virsion for £0.99. Or $0.99, or what ever your currency.
I've never seen a reason to do this.
