Random ringtone everytime
Hi everyone, I have a question - is there any app that randomly changes ringtones? The point is if I set one ringtone, after a while it starts boring me. So my idea is that you make some folder, copy ringtones in mp3 for example, go to ringtone settings and select app as ringtone. when someone calls, the app will randomly choose ringtone and starts ringing.next tme app will randomly choose another ringtone. does it exist? or is someone able to do it?
This might do something similar; https://openrepos.net/content/schturman/auto-ambience-changer as each ambience has a different ringtone.

I think this is much more easy to set up than make x ambiances only because another ringtone.

Problem here is triggering the script after hunging up every call, which is beyond my knowledge; or just running the script every X minutes/hours. If you choose the later, there are several options: systemd scheduler doesn't work when the phone is sleeping and I've found 'timedclient-qt5" rather unstable. So the only remaining choice is CRON; better 'Sailcron' for you, since it's got a graphical interface (available through Openrepos), which needs 'Vixiecron' (also at Openrepos, same repository).
If you want to try, as for the script, I've just run this one on my Sailfish X and it works flawlessly:
You must save it somewhere (my scripts are at /home/nemo/bin) and give it execute permission. If you don't have developer mode enabled, try File Browser app. Next should be download and install Sailcron and Vixiecron. Tell me if you're interested.
