Having to manually switch settings to your phone is so annoying! Profile Valet automatically change your phone’s settings and profiles for you, counting on your location or schedule. It’s ridiculously easy to exploit too.
What is it?
Profile Valet, Android, Free . You know after you go to work and your lovely Kanye West ringtone accidentally blares off because you were an idiot and forgot to interchange your phone to silent? Yeah, that wouldn’t happen with Profile Valet. Or how about once you go home, sit on the can and need to look at YouTube videos but forgot to exchange the WiFi back on? Yup, Profile Valet solves that too. It’s an app that automates your settings for WiFi, Bluetooth, display brightness, display timeout, ringtone, all volume controls, & vibration in accordance for your location or schedule.
Who’s it good for?
People who need to make their smartphone, smarter. And those who have different phone settings reckoning on where they may be or what day that’s.
Why’s it better than alternatives?
Other apps can do similar things (like Locale and Tasker), but cost money or are mind numbingly complicated to take advantage of. Profile Valet keeps it simple, hell, it most often holds your hand once you install a new profile. Do it’s essential to set a location-based or schedule-based profile? What settings do it’s worthwhile to change in this profile? Bada bing, bada boom it’s set. I’ve always loved the assumption of setting these kind of location-based profiles but was always too lazy to be informed the best way to set them up. I don’t have an excuse anymore with Profile Valet.
How could or not it’s even better?
It might mess up the app’s simplicity but I’d love a number of more options to govern. Like turning off work e-mail through the weekend or having certain phone numbers still ring through irrespective of what.
