This app brings back the feature that I've long loved in android, and Samsung removed for no apparent reason. Now I can once again silence my phone in movies and meetings, and not have to remember to turn the sound back on.

Every day I need to set the time at which to end the do not disturb. Pretty annoying. Also, I dislike that when I silence my Sony z3c, I do not automatically get a dialog how long the dnd should last.

I'm sure it works but couldn't be bothered to try it out because the program will not let you try out features unless you pay for it. Dumb. Oh well, there are others. NEXT.

This app has absolutely no features. Basically, to have the mentioned features, you have to pay once you install the app. Again, this app has no functionality unless you pay.

This app is perfect for making sure that you don't accidentally leave your phone on silent or vibrate after meetings and for adhoc reasons. I can't speak to the rating of the paid features because I I only use the free features. I use a separate app for scheduling silent/vibrate times that occur on a consistently schedule-able basis. This app is perfect to supplement for the adhoc (unschedule-able) quiet times.

This app is very easy to learn and use. Just say how long you want it on for and it does its job and you can tell it the exceptions for contacts and app alerts.

About this app

Have you ever put your phone in silent mode (do not disturb mode) and missed important calls because you forgot to turn on the volume? No more missed calls!

What is it?
• An app that automatically restores from the silent/vibration mode
• Even though the phone is in silent mode, if there is an urgent call, then the phone will ring

Who needs it?
• Your friend/spouse who never picks up the phone because it is in silent mode!
• People who often forgets to turn back on the ringer after the movie/class/meeting/work
• Parents: Shhh baby is sleeping (Use Urgent Call feature)
• Students: Use Schedule feature to automatically silence the phone when the class starts and restore volume when the class finishes
• Workers: Silence it for work hours or during the meeting
• Sleep lovers: People who doesn't want to be waken up by some frank calls but to turn their ringer on for certain people (Use Whitelist) or emergencies (Use Urgent Call feature)
• Always on Call: doctors, nurses, IT managers, have a family member who is sick

What does it do?
• Before a movie starts, put your phone into silent mode and set 2 hours in SM+. SM+ will restore the volume in 2 hours
• Schedule*?: You can schedule to have your device to go into silent mode automatically at specified time
• Don't Miss Urgent Calls*: When the same number calls 3 times within 5 minutes, the third incoming call will ring with the maximum volume
• Whitelist*: Calls from the important people will ring even if you are in silent/vibration mode

* Paid-version-only-features

Note: The 'priority mode' is not supported in Android version 5.0 due to the bug in the OS. Google has fixed the issue for version 5.1+ so the 'priority mode' will work in version 5.1+.

Permissions:
• VIBRATE: For a better touch experience
• GET_TASKS: to prevent the SM+ dialog from popping up while using certain apps
