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

Incredibly good and useful app. I like how the app lets you know when a mute period is "engaged" by showing a "p" icon on the notifications bar. Also, it's a very simple matter to set up some preset mute periods, you and toggle them on and off on the fly. The best thing about this app, I feel along with a straightforward UI is that it simply works!--Another plus is the app is open source and there are no ads. Yea!

App is not working properly on my S22 Ultra. Needs to updated for android 12. I have to open the app manually for the notifications to change. It will not change on its own. Also a feature you really need to add is to also turn the media volume down all the way at the same time if you want it. Sometimes I am in a meeting and I accidently open Facebook and it auto blasts a video.

This app is fantastic! There is nothing worse than forgetting to silence your phone and it rings during a meeting, or a notification sounds. I have a LOT of meetings during the day, and this app automatically silences my phone for all of those! It is particularly important during group meditations as we need complete silence. I have a separate scenario set up so that my phone is silent at night, which is so helpful when I forget! Thank you so much for creating this!
