Corona SDK does not support this, however Corona Enterprise would allow you to access the native facilities that would allow this.

Bump - any news on this?
I don’t know how Android phones handle ring tones, so I can only speak for iOS. I’ve never seen an app that could save a ring tone to the device. Every ringtone app saves it’s ringtone files to system.DocumentsDirectory and sets the flag that allows iTunes to see the file. You then save the file to your local computer out of iTunes and then add it back to the iTunes library and then sync the phone with the new ringtone selected.
Do you know of an app that can write ringtones directly to the device?
Corona SDK supports the flag that allows iTunes to see files.

I’m developing for Andriod so not sure about IOS. I know apps written with native code can easily set tones to ring tones. Check out the screen shot of this app (Not mine, just picked a random) and you can see the option to save a sound from a soundboard as ringtone. I would have thought that Corona would be able to do the same.

It’s been a while since I looked into this but I’ve come back to this issue again. Has there been any update on this or is the situation with Corona still the same with saving tones or setting them as ringtones?
We have not added support for making ringtones. This is something we would encourage you to use Corona Enterprise for.
