About Profile Widget
Profile Widget is an app that helps you manage profiles for your phone.
These profiles can handle:
* Volume (ring, notification, alarm, system and multimedia) .
* Vibration.
* Default phone ringtone.
* Default notification ringtone.
* Wi-Fi status.
* Mobile data status (Android 2.x, 3.x, 4.x).
* Bluetooth status.
* Screen timeout.
* Screen brightness.
* Automatic data sync.
* Airplane Mode (Android 2.x, 3.x, 4.0.x).
The profiles can be activated both from the app itself and from the home screen widget provided. To add the widget, you just have to long press on an empty space on the desired home screen and select Widgets -> Profile Widget.
The home screen widget can be customized for each profile with 25 colors (6 in Lite version) and 49 icons (5 in Lite version).
Also, if you don't want to use the widget, there's the option to add shortcuts to activate the profiles to the homescreen.
From version 4.0 on, Profile Widget integrates with Tasker and Locale.
With this app you can easily switch your phone from, say, a vibration+no sound mode to a full volume mode to a completely silent mode with just a single click!.
About the permissions: the app now asks permission to read the phone state, just in order to change the volume of the calls when the phone is ringing (the only way of separating notification and ringer volume in Android 4.0+). It cannot do anything else with this information, since it does NOT have Internet access, call or SMS permissions.

And you don't need root! Forget those bloated complicated switchers. This is a dream with fantastic notification icons for the selected profile in use.

Modified: I bought a new phone using android 6.0 and found this app to suddenly have problems with notification tones. I emailed the author but no response, I don't believe he is supporting it anymore but I could be reacting too quickly. I still love everything about this app but really wish I could choose the notification tones on my new phone. I will continue waiting for a reply but for now moved down to 4 stars. Initially: The free version didn't have many features but worked properly so I splurged on the 99 cents :-) This is the best profile app I have layed eyes on, clean and simple user interface, does everything I want it to do and nothing that I don't. Best of all, all features work perfectly with no glitches. I'm really happy that I can now adjust profiles like we used to - but better! Best of all, maker has amazing response time I've seen to questions. After updates: only getting better, no negatives.

Has a minor issue on Marshmallow, other than that, very useful widget. Only using this you can change many settings only with two taps. And now with Tasker you don't have to press anything and you can see your profile right on your homescreen. No more Android power control widget wasting my screen space.

Update: got a new phone May 2016 and now none of the functions work. Connections won't toggle, notification and ringtones are all the same, and volume doesn't change. Hopefully this will fix soon. I may have to download something else. Original: Would never use another after this one, although the data toggle no longer functions after the last Android update. Hopefully this will be fixed soon, though I still love the app!

One of the best sound profile widgets i have found on here. Very simple and easy to use. Would be nice to be able to set "time periods" for a profile rather than just "timers".

it needs a way to control GPS also. Either location off, location by cell, or location by GPS. Otherwise it works quite well.

The app is good, but need an extra option to schedule time for activation or deactivation of different profiles automatically in a specific and predefined rule. Will give you 5 stars if you add the option mentioned above to that app.
