Releases by No Tie Software

Based in Rochester, New York, NoTie creates clever and useful apps, such as text-to-speech talking caller iD ringtones as well as a talking soundboard for kids with Autism and other non-verbal users. Our team picked the company name because we are determined to never have to wear a tie for work again. Also, ties represent form over function. We believe apps should be designed to be usable, quickly and easily, without unnecessary frills.

Ringtone Fails highlights abuse and misuse of ringtones

May 02, 2013 - It happens to everyone but not always on live television! Junior announcer and former NBA great Shaquille O'neal left his cellphone on during a live TV broadcast and sure enough his annoying ringtone went off and took the whole show down with it. Shaq tossed his phone across the studio, where it landed with a thud and a crack, reminiscent of his bricklaying free throws when he played in the NBA. All of this could have been avoided through use of the Silent mode or a more professional ringtone.
