Because it allows you to use music formats that don't work as standard tones. You need a problem like Ringo to do what you want.

Have you tried posting your question at pocketmax.net <-- that's the offical forum for PhoneAlarm.

it is per profile, not per user. You can't assign specific tones to different contacts with phone alarm. I haven't checked the newer versions of the software, but version 2.03 didn't have that ability

You can set custom SMS ringtones in pA. In Settings, go to the Extras tab and select Custom Email/SMS from the drop down menu. Click on Groups, select Options, then New Group. Name the "group", enter the number in the Contains field and select your sound. You can enter a bunch of numbers in the group or just one number.

Good luck!
