I'm putting out a new app in the next couple of weeks, then I'll resume work on RingControl. The "silent in the dark" feature is one thing it will include.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />KellyKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042925463854783474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13977355.post-61224004109287918632011-07-14T17:44:24.213-05:002011-07-14T17:44:24.213-05:00How about a feature/app that silences the ringer w...How about a feature/app that silences the ringer when the camera/cameras turn dark?

It can be configured to start other processes as defined in the configuration file. It could have a plugin system so other devs could tie their programs into it.<br /><br />That way, instead of 10 processes all fighting to stay active and each do one thing every 30 minutes, you can have one process staying active and doing 10 things every 30 minutes. It's more power efficient.Gwen Morsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06395530683996071929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13977355.post-51139632934639862052009-05-09T10:37:00.000-05:002009-05-09T10:37:00.000-05:00Not a bad idea.

Just let me know!<BR/><BR/>yipcanjo "at" yahoo "dot" com<BR/><BR/>In the "automatic" profile mode, Windows Mobile would put the phone into 'silent' for all meetings that showed you as "Busy", which is more or less the default. That said, I could make a note to myself in my calendar -- say "Pick Up The Drycleaning" -- and select 'free' instead of 'busy'. For those items, the ringer would stay as is.<BR/><BR/>The timed silent mode was also *VERY* handy, and was great for heading to the movies, etc., where it was easy to forget to un-silent your phone!<BR/><BR/>Thanks again!<BR/><BR/>Yip<BR/>http://yipcanjo.wordpress.comyipcanjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179689815971345242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13977355.post-24956825792932972182008-12-12T10:00:00.000-06:002008-12-12T10:00:00.000-06:00That's actually a cool idea.

So, does the WM version silence your phone for any event in your calendar (e.g. "Go to the store and buy eggs"), or only items meeting certain criteria? (Being Windows Mobile, I'm guessing it probably silences the ringer by springing a huge memory leak, draining the battery, things of that nature? :-) <BR/><BR/>I really like the "timed silence" mode. That wouldn't be hard to implement, and I can see situations where that might be really handy. I'll put that on the list of things to look into.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042925463854783474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13977355.post-50492269172062866192008-12-11T14:24:00.000-06:002008-12-11T14:24:00.000-06:00Hey, there!

(Great APP, by the way).<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, could you have a setting where RingControl sets the phone to "silent" when you are in a meeting -- based upon your "calendar", of course. This is a setting that Windows Mobile has had for years, but few (if any) others offer it. It's really nice to have. Another option, of course, is to have a "timed silent" mode where you choose "Silence until 2PM" or "Silence for the next 1 hour", and then it comes out of silent mode automatically. My old Nokia had that feature, which was nice.<BR/><BR/>Thoughts on that stuff? :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/><BR/>Yip<BR/>www.yipcanjo.comyipcanjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179689815971345242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13977355.post-4570417960587415492008-12-08T11:54:00.000-06:002008-12-08T11:54:00.000-06:00I love it.

When putting the phone in your pocket upside down and then sitting, the phone goes back to ring mode. As putting the phone upside down in my pocket is the slickest move to make sure the phone is quiet when going into a meeting, it would be nice to err on the side of having the phone go to vibrate.
