Will extensions allow ringtones without iTunes? Quick reply for third party apps?

[MisterPeepers]

Will ios 8 finally allow us to add ringtones say from a clip that a friend text messages me into the ringtones section of iPhone without iTunes? If not what is the logical explanation that Apple refuses to allow such?

Also, I'm wondering if the quick reply in messages will be part of actionable notifications for third party apps????

Thanks.

I am yet to give iOS 8 a shot, but I think you won't be able to do this. Apple would try and get people buying in iTunes for their profit's sake. Sorry!

Lame. My friend just switched to iPhone from Android (partly because I told him he wouldn't regret it) and he's asking me why he needs iTunes to add ringtones. Should I just say android is superior in this regard?

There are apps that use the music on your phone to create a ringtone. You have to download it from the app store. But it shouldnt require itunes after that. Just some music files on the device.

I looked for this but didn't find it. Found one that makes the file but still requires iTunes to copy the file from the app and synch back to phone.
