Polyphonic Wizard was a software developed in the 2000s which facilitated the task of adding ringtones, images, or Java games (also known as Midlets) to cell phones without the need for additional cables or SMS services. The software ran on the PC, and only the phone and this software were needed to accomplish the task.

When the software was at its best in the early 2000s, it was common for cell phone users to want to personalize their devices with content such as ringtones and wallpapers. However, acquiring these items individually could be costly, as many network service providers offer "pay per ringtone," which meant that each time a user wanted to download a new ringtone, they had to pay an additional fee. Polyphonic Wizard allowed users to avoid these charges and customize their phones more economically.

The software offered many simple options for selecting the type of content to add to the phone, such as ringtones, wallpapers, or Java games. Once the desired option was selected, the user had to select the MIDI file as a ringtone or wallpaper. In some cases, the software also offered to edit the MIDI file to adjust its duration or remove percussion tracks.

Once the MIDI file was selected and the necessary adjustments made, Polyphonic Wizard was responsible for converting the file to the format compatible with the user's phone and making it available for download via the phone's Internet connection or a WAP browser. In this regard, it is essential to note that it offered several options for transferring content to the phone, such as cables, infrared or Bluetooth.

In short, it was a handy software for users who wanted to customize their cell phones inexpensively without paying additional charges for each download. Although the software has become obsolete due to the evolution of cell phones and how content is acquired for them, at the time, it was a handy tool for those users who wanted to get the most out of their devices.

The software license allowed users to install the software on a single PC and use it to customize as many cell phones as they wished. However, the license did not allow the software to be distributed to third parties or used for commercial purposes. Polyphonic Wizard was priced at $19.95. This price included the full license to use the software and no additional charges for downloading content.
