VolumeLock for Android
No problems
Love it. Thanks!
This app seems to work just fine, just make sure you understand how to turn it off- you must uncheck each source AND disable the lock. So if you want to change volume, uncheck at least ringer AND notification because they're linked. Read the review further down about turning it off. Hope this helps because this is a good app.
Prevents missing important calls and notifications.
No problems
Just the job. Does what it says
Great app. Should be hand in hand with my htc one
App still allows S5 volume to increase to one level. But will revert back to vibrate after two levels.
Unable to change modes i.e. sound off sound on. Always locked.
This is the only app I found that actually works. It locks the volume levels completely. No more accidentally muting my phone. :)
Have tried many solutions for this very common problem... and this is the first one that works as advertised.. Highly recommended..!
It is a great addition to any phone. Especially for people who rely on hearing their phone indefinately for important purposes.
This app is compatible with your device. But it doesn't do anything...
Nice and simple
On the positive, it doesn't ask for excessive permissions and it's pretty well presented. A convenient task menu option allows quick locking and unlocking easily. Sadly - and it might just be my phone - I've had a few problems since installating it. At least once it appears to have caused my alarm to ring at 0 volume, which caused me to oversleep. It also locks media volume as well as ring volume, so you have to turn it on an off if you're watching videos and things. Nice app, but not good on my phone.
Unlike every other volume button lock app I tried, this one actually works for not allowing the ringer volume to be changed inadvertently. However, when a call comes in, and I disable the app - it will not allow me to change the earpiece volume during the call. I'm using Lollipop on a Note 4. What's worse is the only way to adjust any volume levels with it disabled is to first uninstall it, then reinstall. Bummer!
***A few words of caution...*** -1- *Disabling* You'll notice that if you don't uncheck all the volume sources, no matter what other settings you disable, you haven't released the app's grip on those sources... ***TO DISABLE*** FIRST: UNCHECK ALL VOLUME SOURCES THEN: UNCHECK "Volume is locked" FINALLY: UNCHECK "VolumeLock is enabled" -2- *Enabling* Similarly, it also seems as if, even without the obvious parameters enabled, if a volume source is checked, the locking is active. By this I mean: IF "VolumeLock is enabled" IS NOT CHECKED & "Volume is locked" IS NOT CHECKED BUT ANY SOURCE IS CHECKED THEN LOCKING IS ACTIVE However, for the icon in the notification bar to appear: FIRST "VolumeLock is enabled" MUST BE CHECKED & THEN "Volume is locked" MUST BE CHECKED As for my review: I can finally stop the volume setting for notifications from jumping (from low to full-blast!); That alone deserves two thumbs way up. But this app goes for perfect by allowing the user so much flexibility. Sure, there's a lack of instructions and it needs some adjustment, but what more do you really need than an app that actually works! 5stars & Keep up the good work!!!
No longer locks volume.
It work nicely.it's awesome
The app only needs to function, in my opinion, when the phone is dozing. Android phones have horrible wake/doze/sleep behavior, relative to iOS.
Nice and simple
The physical side volume buttons can still alter the sound profile. Can't lock it down.After a while it also messed up my phone profile for a bit, causing it to be switched between profiles, uncertain which to be on :(
App still allows S5 volume to increase to one level. But will revert back to vibrate after two levels.
really good, works as expected, try it
Good job, friend. You've done what so many others have tried an failed to accomplish. Kudos to you!!!
Its does work at all...only shows locked unlocked status but doing nothing
I downloaded, enabled, and tested this app and it worked great. I disabled it to lower my volume and as soon as I re-enabled it my volume reverted to the level it was when I downloaded this app. So I disabled it again to try and fix the volume and it would not allow me to adjust the volume (volume was locked) even though the app was not enabled. I have a boost mobile moto g.

Great & very useful.

Just made the volume go nuts
This app has helped my very glitchy volume buttons. It is a bit of a struggle sometimes when the volume seems to lock at two different levels and rapidly and repeatedly switch between the two settings, but its not hard to fix. If you have volume problems (mine will randomly start turning down) this is a great app for you.
This locked my volume alright! It also locked my music so I couldn't listen to anything else without double tracking. Actually...it didn't just double track...it would track each time I clicked on different songs and they all played simultaneously...terribly distorted sounding!! Nails down a chalkboard!! The only way I could get it to shut up was by closing the app or browser completely. Sorry to rain on your parade dev, but this app does not work well for me so I'm not going to lie and say that it does.
Actually works on my Galaxy GT-I1900 when other apps did not !
Nice and simple
Love it. Thanks!
