Home Phone Tunes was incorporated in 2005 after inventing the HPT Ringboxx and technology (patents pending). This small consumer electronic device resides between the home phone and the phone jack on a wall or broadband connection. The HPT Ringboxx enables residential phone subscribers to download customizable ringtones for their home.

Until now, residential ringtones have been the domain of telephone manufacturers. The majority of the ringtones are limited to polyphonic in sound, not caller ID specific and do not allow the user to upgrade or customize the tones to reflect their own personality.

Home Phone Tunes has developed and manages a digital content library with thousands of ringtones for the home. Subscribers manage their ringtones via a portal that allows them to select ringtones and assign them to a specific phone number or Calling Line ID (CLID) or family of identifiers (i.e. telemarketers, unknown caller, private name, private number, etc). Digital content is encrypted and transferred from the content library to the subscriber’s HPT Player via a USB port on a computer linked to a broadband connection. The digital content resides within the HPT Player and the residential subscriber defines the frequency at which they wish to update, change and personalize their ringtones.
