Maybe try to re-download all ringtones. I know this is mostly referring to previously purchased ringtones but maybe it does the trick? If not, I suppose you could see if you can sync them again from your computer? Still sounds like a bug. Sent from my iPhone On Sep 19, 2017, at 7:49 PM, Brian

I agree, if you have 32 bit apps which haven’t been updated by now you might as well delete them and find alternatives. This option appeals more to my sense of order just as I think it’s always a good idea to check for updates before updating and to make sure all apps are up-to-date. From: vip
