  After decades of research, sonification is still rarely adopted in consumer
electronics, software and user interfaces. Outside the science and arts scenes
the term sonification seems not well known to the public. As a means of science
communication, and in order to make software developers, producers of consumer
electronics and end users aware of sonification, we developed, distributed, and
promoted Tiltification. This smartphone app utilizes sonification to inform
users about the tilt angle of their phone, so that they can use it as a torpedo
level. In this paper we report on our app development, distribution and
promotion strategies and reflect on their success in making the app in
particular, and sonification in general, better known to the public. Finally,
we give recommendations on how to develop, distribute and market sonification
apps. This article is dedicated to research institutions without commercial
interests.
