Android Central Question
Bottom line: I wish to set a ringtone for a group of people.
For Gmail, I am aware of groups that are set up via Labels; this allows you to send bulk e-mails to all the group's members. When it comes to setting a ringtone for a group, neither the Call nor Contacts app have this capability. I can't create a group in the Call app. And in the Contacts app, it always lists all contacts; there is no section in which it shows the Labels that exist in Gmail. Unsure if any prior Android OS had this feature; before my first smartphone--running Android--my Nokia cell phone allowed creating groups in its phonebook AND setting a ringtone to each one. So, it appears that I must rely on a 3rd-party app for this handy feature.
