Silent Boot

Anton Weber

About this app

Silent Boot mutes your phone on shutdown to keep it silent on boot and restores previous volume settings after startup is complete.

Please note: This workaround does not apply to all phones.

Ratings and reviews

Been using this for years. Does exactly what it says. I use another app to mute sounds in particular situations, but this is the only app that mutes startup. I now have a Samsung Note 9 and the phone said the app may not work with my phone and may need updated. But it's working just fine. Phone just upgraded to Android 9 and it still works.

Effective and unobtrusive. Great on Android Jelly Bean. Version 2.3 still works *almost* perfectly on my current Android Pie device. When doing a standard reboot, I usually hear a fraction of a second of the shutdown jingle but that's it. Not bad for an app that Google says no longer supports my current device! I enabled permissions (Do Not Disturb, and change system settings), turned off Android sleep/battery optimization, and checked the first box in the app settings (to enable Silent Boot).

Works perfectly on a Samsung A52 5G. Thank you for this app! Why can't this option be built in from the factory? It's a no-brainer because there is no need to wake-up/disturb everyone around you when you power your phone on..."HEY! Look at me, I'm an asshat", is not what I need.
