manner mode
How many of you forgot to put your phone into manner mode (vibrate) when going into the office or a movie theatre only to have it ring and draw the angry scowl of everyone in the room? Of how about when you remember to turn on manner mode but when forget to turn it off you miss that important message you were waiting for?
Wouldn’t it be nice to have an app that automatically turns your manner mode on or off depending on where you are? Wouldn’t it be nice to have HexRinger?
