Silent Hours

Viktor Åkerskog

About this app

Android 5.0/5.1 Lollipop users: This app should fully silence your device, unlike the built in priority mode that Google replaced the normal silent mode with. However, with every manufacturer implementing the new volume/notification modes differently, the app might not work correctly on devices with 5.0 and above.

Are you tired of waking up in the middle of the night because you got a new text message or phone call?
Silent Hours will mute the audio on your device every day during the periods you set.

Additional options for when sound is muted:
- Mute games, music etc.
- Enable vibration
- Lock the volume to muted, to avoid accidental changes
- Lower brightness to desired level (saves previous level)
- Disable the notification light
- Unmute the sound on incoming call. The sound will be muted again when the call is ended


You can also choose to mute games and music, as well as to enable vibration.
The service keeps running even if you reboot your device.

You can also set a quick mute period, for unscheduled events.

Please note that if you set audio to be muted or reenabled before the current time, this will be done at the time you set, the next day.

Sleep tight!

Ratings and reviews

mor options like set some numbers to break throw these people your phone will ring while this app is working like vip people and anther thing how about add a key for people who ring more than 3 or more time at one or two minutes and the user abel to allow or not allow this option and edit people who is abel to ring during this app working

Very disappointing. My phone ended up going off at work, which I expressly wanted it not to.

Doesnt work very well and wants money to work slightly better
