About Sand
A single app that can serve as an automatic silencer, a notification tool, an alarm clock and a task manager, targeting the entire productivity cycle under a simple user interface.
Based on the rules you add, the app will:
■ switch your phone to silent while you sleep / wake you up with an alarm / remind you of a note / vibrate
■ daily, weekly or just once
■ on certain days or between certain days
■ at certain times or between certain times
■ plus: you can also add tasks and subtasks and use it as a todo list
■ and: you can add periodic alarms in case, for example, you have to take medicine every few hours
Other features:
■ share your list with friends on Twitter or Facebook, or back it up by emailing it to yourself in human readable form. That same backup can be imported back into the app by copy/pasting it
■ extra filter controls and reminder text when you turn the device to landscape
■ quick actions: long press the "i" button and get some quick actions (desk mode, silence for 1,2 or 3 hours or quick reminders)
■ contextual menu for every task/alarm - long-press it to see it
■ fixed tasks will uncheck themselves automatically (useful for recurring shopping lists)
■ Ring Mode widget: change the ringer mode (mute/vibrate/loud)
Also check out the Ring Through Silence app if you want allow favorite numbers to call 'through' silent periods:

I have a lot of lusts on the discontinued tag to-do app which is no longer supported. I got a new phone and want to move my lists but can find any support for it. Guess I'll have to switch to something that is less likely to be dropped. Google keep maybe.

Minimalistic and clean interface. A few updayes ago Sand stopped silencing at scheduled times, unless you edited the schedule and pressed ok. But it still doesn't reactivate sound on schedule. One has to manually enable it. Edit: Worked yesterday morning on my android 4.1.2. Then a new update came and it stopped workinc again. :-

I only use the silent mode scheduling feature, mostly for a notification-free night. Works great. Was buggy for me, but the developer offered 1-1 support and I have no more problems.

I only use the silent mode scheduling feature, mostly for a notification-free night. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Haven't found the pattern yet.
