Description
If you forget to mute your phone and calls rings or notifications chime during important meetings or wakes you up at night, then this Do Not Disturb app (DND) is for you. Enable Calendar and Night mode, and forget about having to play with volume control to silence your phone.
Several features set this app apart from others in the category. This application was written with security in mind. As such, it requires just a few permissions to read user's contacts, calendar and to send and receive SMS. Most other apps require network permissions, and some need access to SD storage, which allows them to transfer any of the personal data from the phone unnoticed. This app can't do that, so you can rest assured that your personal data is safe.
This app offers the following features:
* It can silence the phone for the night and/or during office hour, meetings or calendar appointments * Instant silent mode timer can be started with just 1 click, * Instant timer can also be activated via the widget by the volume bar * It can keep the phone on silent + vibrate all day and go completely silent for the night * It mutes phone calls and all audible notifications during quiet time, except alarms * Day and night time schedule can be programmed separately for each day of the week * Calendar selection is configurable, and only Busy events are muted * Supported calendars include Google calendars, Exchange * SMS and call exceptions are supported while the phone is muted * You can allow separate groups of contacts to ring at night and/or during the day * Enable Emergency mode to let repeated calls from the same number ring * Use No Exceptions mode to block calls from allowed contacts for the duration of an important meeting * Use Respond via SMS to let the caller know to call back again if it's urgent * Optionally disable Bluetooth handsfree during quiet time * Cancel mute when you wake up early or the meeting ends early
Certain vendor phones have issues with vibrate mode. If your phone doesn't vibrate when you enable vibration in this Do Not Disturb app, change vibration settings in your phone's system settings/sounds menu.
Please don't block this app's notifications on your phone, it can cause the app to not work correctly. Also note that if you have a task killer/booster type of app installed on your device, add this Do Not Disturb app to the list of exceptions. Finally, make sure you don't have other apps that manipulate the speaker running at the same time.
This app was previously called Silence Scheduler Premium.
Recent changes: Fixed vibrate issue. Fixed issue with notifications sounding in the previous release. Changes to support Google's restricted CallLog and SMS permissions. Latest version disables SMS sending capabilities, as well as call filtering based on incoming caller ID. On the plus side, it's now using the filtering based on Favorites, and should be very stable on wide range of devices. We exploring a way to bring the more flexible call filtering and SMS auto-responder back. Stay put.

Comments on Silence Premium Do Not Disturb for Android
★★★★★
I just upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ to a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, and I moved the apps and data with Samsung's Smart Switch. Unfortunately, this app's settings did not migrate. But I did get it working successfully, again. The problems come from Android's push to save battery power and limit permissions. Here's what I had to do: 1) Delete the app and re-install fresh from Google Play. 2) Go to Settings | Battery and toggle off Power savings mode. 3) Go to Settings | Battery | Background usage limits and toggle off Put unused apps to sleep. 4) Go to Settings | Battery | Background usage limits | Never sleeping apps and Add the Silence or Silence Premium app. 5) Go to Settings | Apps | Silence or Silence Premium and set: -- Notifications to Allowed ---- Go to Silence Status and set to Alert or Silent ---- Go to Silence Status and set Lock screen to Show content ---- Go to Silence Status and set to Ignore Do not disturb -- Permissions to Calendar and Phone NOTES: I have relied on Silence Premium for years, and the only difficulties encountered have been due to the increasing granularity of the Android OS over the years. I am also very cautious of conflicting apps. Lastly, I have not used Exceptions like preferred callers or multiple calls from the same number, so Contact permissions were not used by me. This is a fantastic app since it leverages your Calendar appointments. Keep fighting the good fight, i.e., don't let this app fade away!

Great app! It scans your calendar looking for keywords, such as "mute" and the phone is silent during that time. Numbers that you pick can have access, and other features are available, too.

UPDATE 2023: This app continues to work great. I now have a Pixel 7 Pro. I think a lot of the complaints are unfortunately related to the phone you are using (I know - not something easily changed). Since the developer has gone silent for several years now, there are no updates to keep up with the OS and phones. My calendar-based silencing, on the fly timer silencing, overnight silencing all work. This is an app I have used on every phone I've owned since 2019. Pixels and Samsung's. Indispensable
★★☆☆☆
This app worked brilliantly for years, but in an update I lost the ability for whitelisted groups to come through. I used to be able to whitelist favorites, but now it only whitelists groups, and it doesn't work. This just caused a huge problem when my nurse spouse had to leave work during the pandemic and race home since he could not get in touch with me by repeated texts or phone calls. Sorry, I cannot afford for that to happen again and will be uninstalling. I'm running a Motorola G6 with Android 9.
