Comments on Volume Locker for Android

★★★★★ Samsung fascinate (then s3, s5, s6, and now s7) has the volume buttons directly across from the unlock button. This app 100% fixes my issue of accidentally changing volume! I've been using this app for years and years and I highly recommend it.
★★★★★ ON SAMSUNG NOTE To silence phone without intethering with Volume Locker STFU actually works!
★★★★★ Love it, exactly what my clumsy fingers needed. Reverts volume changes unless allowed via onscreen prompt. Great job. Maybe I won't miss so many calls and messages...unless I want too!
★★☆☆☆ Lagniappe I used VL on 2 other devices & loved it. My s7 & I find it useless...app runs but does not lock anything but your access to modify any volumes. And when you click MORE, all you get is thanks to developers who helped...no thanks!
★★☆☆☆ Won't adjust to silent mode I'm using Audio Profiles and when I set it to silent Volume Locker volumes are still locked so ringtones, notifications etc...are still being heard. This app seems not to work on Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge on Android 6.0
★★☆☆☆ Not useful on galaxy note 4 Even after I enable app volume lock, but can still alter volumes if I press volume key

Description by Shopriant Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
This app helps prevent against accidental volume changes by confirming the change you made, by either tray notification or a pop up. If you don't approve the change, the volume will be reset within a set amount of seconds.

Great for people who accidentally changes their volume, have small kids, don't want their phone to go off accidentally in meetings, or even have apps which modify the sound settings a lot. It works with most profiling apps: Locale & Tasker ("Locale Audio Update Notifier" plugin necessary), Timeriffic, Setting Profiles, Ring Toggle, AAM, Bedside, etc.

By setting the timeout to "instant", the locked volumes will revert instantly without prompting.

The camera permission is to prevent Volume Locker from popping up due to the shutter sound on some devices. This app doesn't take pictures, it just detects if the camera is in use.

Features: unobtrusive, auto-start, call friendly, multiple volume lock

Exclude from task killer!

Regarding the Samsung Galaxy S: If VL doesn't work or save your settings properly, it's due to the upgrade to 2.2.1 breaking the settings permissions. Reinstalling won't fix it, the only fix is resetting the device. This is a Samsung issue and not related to VL.

Recent changes:
The tray icon is enabled by default to prevent the system from stopping the service if there's a heavy system load. If you wish to disable the icon, the option is available under the Service Settings.

1.3.3 Update for ICS - Fixes widget dimensions.

1.3.2 ICS Update. This uses a whole new settings file for ICS users, so your settings will have to be redone. Sorry for the inconvience, but it had to happen eventually. :/
