System ringtone list in windows phone

I am trying to do an app, that lets the user select the ringtone from the system ringtone list in windows phone to alert user when the Toast notification coming.

What i confusing is it's possible to show the system ringtone list and let the user choose for the purpose of alert notification? What i searching in the website are showing that Android are able to do it (RingtonePreference) and about Windows Phone i only found that is enable users to save an audio file to the system ringtones list.

Any help and suggestion will be appreciate. Thank you.

    An app cannot access existing ringtone or alert sounds; however, your app can save a media file to be used as a ringtone...
