AudioGuru | Audio Manager- screenshot thumbnail

Description

Easily set your volume levels with home screen volume control widgets. Manually apply volume presets straight from the widgets or schedule them for a time of day. Optionally also schedule your ringer, alerts and alarm default ringtones.

AudioGuru is the attractive and well featured audio manager for your phone volume levels and ringer modes.

★ Manage media, ringer, alert, system and alarm volume levels.
★ 4 Custom volume profiles (presets).
★ Rename and edit Profiles.
★ Configure your default ringtones for ringer, alerts and alarm.
★ Automatically set profiles depending on time of day.
★ Solid and translucent widget skins.
★ 4 home screen widget sizes available.
★ Scheduler to automatically apply your presets whenever you want.
★ Available in over 5 different languages

TO RENAME A PROFILE: long press the profile button on the auto scheduling screen.

PRO KEY allows different schedules for work and non-work days.

TIP: Disconnect your ringer and alert volumes levels in your phone sound settings (on pre-ICS android only).

NOTE: Android 5+ replaced silent mode with priority mode.

NOTE: Android 4+ (ICS) DOES NOT let the ringer and alerts volumes be separated. Pre Android 4 phones can still separate them in the phone sound settings.

As a work around solution on ICS you can enable the adjustment of the ringtones and set your alert ringtone to "silent" for a particular profile e.g. sleep.

Issue with the latest version Great for automatically controlling the different volumes on my phone However... Android 5 Lollipop now doesn't set the volume to mute but to mute(priority) which means with my phone on charge at around 2am when my battery gets to 100% it vibrates furiously and wakes me up.

Nice app, but Nice app. Works pretty well, but it seems to have a little bug: It resets temporary volume settings to the current program settings at midnight. This may not bother most people, but since I'm intermittently on call, this is aggravating. When I'm not on call I turn the volume down when I go to bed. At midnight all the settings are reset, so I get woken up when a page is sent.

Almost Really great to use even if you only use the free options. I especially enjoy the scheduling of sound profiles. However, now that lollipop has arrived, it needs and update to account for the new silent/downtime feature. I'd love to get that fixed so I can keep using this.

Lollipop issues Now all of a sudden my silent setting doesn't work. My Android Priority Only setting is silent...yet this app plays sound. Only other option is to make it do vibrations instead. No thanks. I'll be deleting this app if not resolved soon. I can live with setting up Priority Only rules instead.

Now I'm disappointed. I had purchased the key for this app.. It has performed faultlessly for a long time until just recently... I have emailed the developer and still await the response. In sleep mode I cannot stop vibration. I will now look for another app.. So I concluded that the developer is either out of business or does not care. I will look elsewhere now which is a shame as it was really good before, but I am now fed up with being woken in the middle of the night!

Pro version sucks I paid for the pro version and would like my money back. Does not auto update and never checks on reboot. Just comes up in sleep mode no matter the time.

Alexandra Sampson July 31, 2015

this is one of the few apps I've paid for and would have rated it high. Now it's no longer auto switching to the different settings so the rating is low. The reason I paid for the key was so I could set it and forget it. Now my phone rings in the middle of a meeting because it's not on vibrate. Argghh!!!

Lollipop issue Was the best app ever until lollipop update. Now phone randomly goes into silent and I miss calls. Please fix and will rerate for 5 stars. (Note 3 verizon user)

Erich Radauscher January 6, 2015

Just plain woks I've been using audio guru for about 2-3 years now. It is the most convenient audio controlling app I've used. Everyday I conveniently switch to work or home profiles depending on where I'm at. It's a simple app that just works, what else can you ask for.

benodiktine September 29, 2015

Was Great... After switching to a new phone (Huawei P8max) that has Android 5.1.1 my audio levels were all out of wack. I would miss texts and calls because profiles were no longer changing correctly. Very disappointed, I paid for Pro but I had to uninstall it. It just doesn't work anymore.

Richard Radford November 5, 2015

Was a great App until Lollipop Now phone will vibrate rather than being silent. Have had to uninstall as phone is also alarm clock. If you can fix this I'd give it 5 stars again

Arcady Royzen September 24, 2015

the rest seems to be working fine. Developer needs to be specific in the instructions and verify that they work before posting them. I can press on anything there and it just won't work... The scheduling however works fine for me. Updated: some setting are causing problems - had to kill one of the profiles - sleep doesn't need to be an automatic vibrate mode, it defeats the purpose. downgraded my rating because not enough flexibility in modifying profiles

Benjamin Padilla July 24, 2015

Used to be the best but vibrate mode is hidden now. The developer keeps saying individual apps maintain their own vibrate policy but that doesn't really matter when you want to create profiles in audio guru that shuts ALL vibrating apps to off but still keep sound on. Also, they should make it more clear on how vibrate mode actually works. Very confusing.

Lacy O April 17, 2016

Works great I had a galaxy S5 and now an S7. Hung up a bit on the S5 though I suspect it was the phone. Works perfect on the S7. I have tried other apps but this one has always been my favorite. Totally worth the money. I highly recommend it.

Martin Gleeson September 5, 2015

Lollipop messed this up This used to be so good. I paid for it as I believed the developer deserved reward for an excellent app. But with Lollipop, Silent no longer seems to work properly and the phone vibrates when it shouldn't.

Jim Lewis January 11, 2016

Won't work on droid turbo 2 I paid for this app and have loved it for the past 2 years. Now it won't unlock the sound controls of the droid turbo 2 so the alert, ringer and the system ring are are locked together. Please fix this and I'll change my rating.

Basudev Chaudhuri February 14, 2015

Still testing Doesn't seem to block all notifications - it still vibrates when I want it off, at night. Defeats the purpose of the app.

A Google User December 15, 2015

Lollipop problems It used to work perfectly well until kit kat. Now it's annoying. Any plans of better lollipop and marshmallow integration?

Nick Noltee February 22, 2016

Can't change profile names I don't seem to be able to change the profile name. (HTC ONE M8 on lollipop with pro key). Apart from that,is great! Have been using for years now.

Peter Healey August 10, 2015

Been using it for years Had a bit of trouble after getting an Android 5.0 phone. It wasn't switching between profiles until I tried adding it to the protected apps list and its working fine now. Not bothered about it vibrating in silent mode which is the main complaint judging by the other reviews. Had to give 4 out of 5 as the developer didn't respond to my emails when I couldn't get it to work.

Martin Cox June 20, 2015

Need to resolve Lollipop issue regarding silent Since upgrading to Lollipop, in Auto mode, silent defaults to 'with vibration'. Please resolve this issue. I don't want my phone buzzing overnight. I don't want to turn off vibration each night.

A Google User April 22, 2016

Silent Mode Only Does Vibrate After 6 years of daily use. THE most used app I have. Since Marshmallow, Silent Mode is only Vibrate. Android Wear support to change profiles would be rad!

Jupiter Apps September 18, 2014

hi what would you like to see in android wear support?

Daniel Stoian August 16, 2015

Good but... I have try for a few times until now the scheduler and it seems to work. But the widget for selecting audio profile (Normal/Vibrate/Silent) doesn't work properly. If I change the profile from outside the widget (e.g. from Quick Settings or an other app settings/widget) this doesn't reflect the change remaining unchanged. I like to see the possibility to create an exact scheduling profile (not with 15 mins step). I like to see a widget that combine all 3 big ones (all 3 togheter takes up too much room).

Apoorva Joshi June 27, 2015

Great until Lollipop upgrade I have never needed to look anywhere else for my sound profile management thanks to AudioGuru but after the Lollipop upgrade, the app has been nothing but a pain to deal with. My phone vibrates for all notifications and I hate that. There's no way to turn off vibration for alerts in the app any more. That's a Huge disadvantage and is the reason I am uninstalling. Maybe, if they fix their issues with upgraded versions, I will consider re-installing. Sad to uninstall.

Sean Singleton February 1, 2015

Does bare minimum 1. Needs to have auto override so when you forget to turn it back to ring from vibrate you won't miss a call/sms. 2. Offer a 99¢ ad free version so when I back out of the app I don't get blasted with useless garbage other apps.

A Google User March 15, 2016

A great app. Simple but very helpful. No words can say any better. It's beautiful, Perfect and very helpful. A big hug to developers and Thanks too. Phone : HTC Desire HD

izabela mariusz February 5, 2016

Great app, vibration bug Great app but the 'silent mode' does not work after update. Whenever choose silent in any profile, it goes into vibration. Please fix for 5 stars

Gregory Ross April 13, 2015

Needs a little fixing since Lollipop Lollipop certainly made things difficult for adjusting sound options and I was thrilled when Audio Guru said it was up for the challenge, but the fact that it vibrates when it should be silent is a huge let down. So before bed I'd resort to turning the phone to "priority only" as a work around, but then at midnight Audio Guru would take it out of "priority only" mode and the vibrations would start up again. This needs to be fixed to get the five stars back!

Michael Mays December 8, 2015

Abandoned by developer I have been a faithful paid AudioGuru user for several years now. Unfortunately the last update came over a year ago so I have to assume this has been abandoned by the developer. I cannot understand why the UI has never been revamped to make renaming of profiles and other options easier to find and access. This has been a seemingly ignored problem for the entire time I have used the program. I am considering switching to a different app that will be more user friendly unless this is corrected.

FREDDY ELLOITT December 2, 2015

Thats what I'm screaming right there. A sound management app.that actually works. Now I don't have to be beshoveled while watching videos.

Harley Kluttz April 20, 2015

Technical issue vibration when should be silent Recently when the app changes to silent/sleep mode it defaults to vibrate instead of silent no matter how many times I try and change the settings for the mode.

January 26, 2015

Technical issues and no response from developer I have used Audio Guru with a pro key for a few years and really like the functionality. Recently I discovered an issue where it appears to re-apply the current profile on midnight (despite the profile change over time being mid-evening and early morning). This is a pain when I use "Shush" to silence my phone overnight (intermittent requirement, don;'t want it automated) and Audio Guru re-enables the current profile at midnight. It should not change profiles except at the appointed time. An interim workaround is not to use the auto mode and manually set the profile - then it does not occur. However that's a pain and I bought the pro key for the automation. I've emailed the developer twice but haven't had a response. Disappointing, not to at least get a "Yes, looks like a bug, we'll have a look". I'm sure developers get lots of email, but if you charge for a product some level of response is expected. Hence the 2 stars...

ray D November 8, 2015

Was great, now disappointing I've emailed the developer twice but no response...the system, notification, and ringer designations all stick so that they all need to be in the same level. I don't want this, but there hasn't been anything out to fix this and the developer doesn't respond. I've had the pro key for years..

Rip Dunlap June 25, 2015

Unfortunate !!!!! Since upgrade to lollipop, the app is turning programmed volume down even though it's programmed max. Bummer, great app before the upgrade.

David UK February 8, 2016

Quite useful A well presented app that offers useful function. Android 5 (lollipop) made it difficult to control vibration but this app remains useful for quick profile switching if vibration is not an issue for you.

Alister Barnes March 18, 2015

Was wonderful... For some reason it had stopped auto updating the profiles... I keep having to open it to get it to change from sleep to work, etc

A Google User June 23, 2015

Used to love it... Now it's basically useless. Silent doesn't work and it doesn't seem to control system sounds which are always loud.

Devan Estey April 20, 2015

Since my phone updated it doesn't keep all my auto settings. Other than that, fantastic app. Auto is really convenient!

A Ramirez November 14, 2015

Excellent app. Been using it for years! I've been using this app for years now and it has never failed me. Only wish I could have separate controls for each sound source. I think that some phones allow that while others have the ringer and notification sounds tied to the same level. This is not the fault of the application though.

Sam De Clercq November 12, 2015

Marshmellow Bought it when using jelly bean, worked great and liked it. Now in 6.0 its useless :-(

What's New

v1.36 Basic support for Android 5 Lollipop - silent mode is replaced with priority mode, which essentially behaves as silent mode with the option to allow some interruptions.

NOTE: Stock Android 4.1+ Jelly bean has linked system, ringer and notification volumes.

NOTE: Stock Android 4+ ICS has linked ringer and notification volumes. As a work around solution on ICS you can enable the adjustment of the ringtones and set your alert ringtone to "silent" for a particular profile e.g. sleep.
