One of the best apps I've used ever. Simple silent timer does it all and in a simple, concise interface that's easy to use and easy to configure. I'll say this app does one thing and it does it very well. It closes the app when your finished entering and continues to run in the background. I use it to silence my phone when at church. Now, I don't go three days b4 remembering that I'm still in vibrate mode and missed 3 calls. Very easy. Very precise. I've found what I needed for a long time. Thx

So far this app does exactly what i need it to - silence my phone for X amount of time. (My prior Motorola phone had such a function built-in, but my Samsung Galaxy S9 doesn't seem to have a way to silence my phone but only for a set amount of time. S9 appears to only be able to turn ON Do Not Disturb and then you have to remember to manually turn that back OFF, which I find very inconvenient compared to the built-in "timed" silencing function on my Moto X phone).

This app worked well until the latest update introduced "total silence." Now the only way I can tell to enable alarms while the app is on is to also enable vibration, defeating the purpose of the app. ----------- Update: Thank you for your note. I have installed the upgrade but am having trouble figuring out how to set it up the way it was before (alarms on, media on, vibrator off, call and text alerts off). Please advise. Thanks.

Dear Spencer, was it helpful?

"Silent Mode Button" behavior depends on your device. I think, on your phone it use the latest "do not disturb" settings. So please switch on the "do not disturb" mode and choose the "Alarms only" setting. Then switch it off. Then the APP will use this settings.
