      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 use keywords such as "meeting" so that 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!

      Features
      • Create rules to automatically switch to vibrate mode or silent mode
      • Schedule Rules will silence your phone at a specific time in your weekly schedule
      • Calendar Rules will silence your phone during calendar events
      • Match all events in your calendar or match specific events based on keywords in the event title or description

      Free. Open source. No ads.

      It does almost everything I want. Would like to be able to activate it manually though... E.g. Set vol to mute and that expires in 20 minutes

      Thanks Kevin! This should work but sometimes there is a small delay before Polite gets notified of the change in your calendar.

      Thanks for the app(edited comment) *now it works flawless! Thanks a lot. Its life saving app for me :) Its working great and cathes keywords from multiple calendars. Just i couldnt set cancelling vibrate mod after event finishes?

      Thanks Ekin! Polite should change your ringer back to normal mode once the event ends if it was in normal mode when the event started.
      Scott Bacon April 21, 2016
      Duh! Why don't calendar programs have this function built into them? It's a great concept and would be a big DUH moment for companies like Google calendar. I love it, so ready to set up and works much better than when I have stuff setup for location (I.e. Church). Great job guys

      This is great Should be required on phones. There is nothing more embarrassing than forgetting to silence your phone.

      Hi Dipu. Can you let me know what should be improved? I haven't seen many other apps that can do what Polite does, matching events by keyword.

      Hello Jay. I am very sorry your purchase did not work. I really appreciate your donation and I want to make sure you get what you paid for or get a refund. I fixed a bug which should give you a working full version with the next update later today (0.1.6). Send me an email if you have any questions.
