About VIP Alert

Allows you to enter a list of VIP numbers (manually or via
contacts) that are allowed to ring through even when your ringer is off. Silence your phone at bedtime, but still get calls, texts, or MMS messages from your kids. Silence it in a meeting, but still get calls, texts, or MMS messages from spouse, kids, or the boss. Click on the VIP to toggle on/off. Long press the VIP to delete.

NOTE for users of apps like GO PRO and others that interact with SMS messages: Some of these applications block other apps from acting on SMS messages. For this reason, VIP Alert would not receive the SMS, and you would not be alerted. As of version 2.0.3, if VIP Alert is installed earlier than the other apps, it should be able to coexist with these apps. You may need to uninstall the other app and reinstall it.

I tried to stick it out because I paid for this but it's not working so I uninstalled and found something else. I loved this at first. I relied on it for a long time. Then I updated my Android sys a few months ago and now it only half works. Calls from my vip's RING through when silent mode is enabled, but texts do not. I NEED texts to work. Sorry.

Some phones are losing their menu button bc all touch. I did in the lg vista. Can't assign numbers anymore so can't use

C70%
by C####:

The developer did a great job overhauling this app. The app now has customizeable features, offers options for texts independently of calls, and lets non-contact numbers ring through. This is very useful for getting calls from clients with multiple (and often unknown) phone numbers. Oddly enough, sometimes I just want my friends and family to leave me alone so I can focus on the unexpected. Great job, and thanks for listening to your customers so that I can better listen to mine! Sprint HTC EVO 4G.

When I first got this app I would have given it 5 stars, now it is a 1 star. This app worked just as it should in the beginning, but 2 weeks ago it no longer works. If the ringer is silenced nothing comes thru even if the phone number is in the VIP list. I don't know what happened, I have not changed any of my settings....calls from my VIP list just stopped ringing if the phone was silenced. The app has been uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times and it still does not work.

I use to love this app when it worked. Ive email, and asked for help. Never get a response. This was a app I really needed and depended on. Wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't going to work.

The program works great most of the time, but occasionally will freeze the phone when taking a VIP call and the phone is on silent. Only way to restart is to pull the battery.(HTC incredible, froyo 2.2 o/s)

Loved this app on my DROIDX but it needs an update for the DROID RAZR maxx. It won't play any ringtones, just an alarm clock sound. Nor will it notify me when I get a text.

I'm so unhappy with the change I liked being able to be announced when I received a text from a VIP I had on the list active n phone on silent .. please fix all ppl have to do to not hear a double ring when phone on normal is disable VIP its not that hard ppl r just lazy!!!

by C####:

Gives you so many options of what you are alerted to when phone silenced. I only get important calls/texts when I can't or don't want to be bothered.

C70%
by C####:

The only thing I don't like is that I can't set call and text settings independently. If call noise and text noise are on, both are on for all enabled VIP's, so I can't say that some VIP's can get through when calling and texting but other VIP's can get through only when calling.

I have been searching and searching for an app like that if it works like it should. Well worth the 99 cents to have it. Keep up the good work.

Would give it 5 stars if developer can update app to allow you to select your own ringtone for VIP contacts instead of phone default.
