Polite - Automatically Silence

Cameron Steffen

About this app

Don't let your phone interrupt you when it should be quiet. That's rude! With Polite, your phone will automatically go into silent mode (or vibrate mode) at the right times. You can choose specific times in your weekly schedule to automatically enter silent mode. You can also have your phone enter silent mode during calendar events in your calendar app. You can even enter keywords such as "meeting" and Polite will silence your phone whenever you have a calendar event with that keyword in the event title (e.g. "Meeting with manager"). It's time to teach your phone some manners!

Ratings and reviews

Works great, I love it. This is perfect when I'm on call and working nights so contractors don't wake me up while I'm sleeping during the day. Although, I really wish you would create an "exceptions list" so I can set certain numbers to call through regardless. Example, even if I'm working nights and sleeping during the day, I'd still like to receive calls from my mom or other family members in case of emergency. Otherwise, great app. Thanks

I LOVE THIS APP!!!!! I've tried for years to find an app that made it easy to control phone notifications. This app makes it very easy. It turns the ringer off and, more importantly, turns it back on again! If you're in and out of meetings and appointments, if you miss calls because you often forget to turn your ringer back on THIS APP IS FOR YOU!!!

Overall nice clean app that functions well. The only downside I've notice is that it doesn't silence your Media volume. I didn't see anything in the settings for it, but it would be nice if you could add this, since accidentally opening a loud video when you think your phone is muted can be embarrassing.
