Profile Manager for Android
Except for the bug mentioned below timed profiles stopped moving back to the previous profile. This new bug makes the App unusable Before that - It would have been perfect, but there is a misleading bug. If you put it on any timed profile (for instance: "Silent" ) and then you put it on another timed profile ( for instance: "meeting") - then when the second profile expires -(meeting profile expires) it will go back to the first timed profile (Silent) even though it had expired too. And then it is on that timed profile (Silent) forever!! This problem Must be fixed! Other then that it is perfect- Very flexible. Very convenient.
3 star because of one feature malfunctioning..the vibration mode. For some reason feature doesn't pick up the vibration from the system.
Was excellent but now it has stopped allowing new profiles and the timed function has stopped working. Sad really as I found this app really useful.
Hard to understand how to configure timed profiles. Been trying to figure it out for a long time but cant understand its logic. Not user friendly.... Uninstalling.
Really effective. Easy to configure. Makes the job of switching between profiles very smooth. #AppOfMyChoice for profile management on Android.
You should make that more obvious. Also I don't see a feature that Quick Profiles had. Change lock and home screen background image with profile. So you always can tell which profile is active without unlocking.
Recently my mobile has upgraded to Android 5.0 on Asus Zenfone 5 mobile. Then onwards this software is not working as expected. It was working fine on previous version of android. Problem is that the data or wifi is not switching to on and off according to the profile i changed. I have to do it manually. I have already sent an email to the developer but till now there is no response.
Only thing missing are options for the GPS. While on the Car profile, you won't need to switch it on for navigation.
But need the ability to preview sounds when adjusting volume level.when I put all sound off the phone still wont be set to silent mode
Exactly what i needed to save battery consumption. Leaving Bluetooth, wi fi on all the time, was draining my battery.
The beep once function was what I was looking for in the app. After turning on Beep once for Office profile in the app the vibrations during call got stopped and beep once did not happen.
Works pretty well, but even when I switch off my vibration setting on my 'nightime' profile my phone still vibrates when a message comes through - irritating when asleep :-(

Needs more features and could be the ultimate profile manager. Please add - GPS setting for root users. - Ability to backup and restore profiles. - Mute sound playback while setting profile sound levels
After updating Android to 4.1.2, it doesn't control sound well. In my 'Meeting' profile, the sound is set to 'Mute', but it rings anyway. It also doesn't change profile according to location.
Bugs (on my Motorola Razr HD, Android 4.4.2): - Phone is in airplane mode. When switching to any profile, Profile Manager crashes, restarts and is NOT able to exit airplane mode. Bugs (on my Moto X 2n Gen., Android 5.1): - same as above plus - Profile Manager is not able to enable or disable mobile data at all - unfortunately a big bug/disadvantage. Would be nice to fix this!
Works well for what I want. Easy to set up, edit and apply. I prefer to switch profile manually rather than by time and location so my needs are quite simple.The only thing stopping 5* is it would be nice to see which profile is in use on the top status bar. The app icon is displayed but not what profile is in use.
Useful to easily change profile but slow to react. Also if the last profile had full bright selected, another profile with a lower screen light stays fully bright. Fortunately I have another app that corrects it - but I should not need to. Have Samsung S2 with Gingerbread.
But missing an option for data connection in any profile. For example i created an outdoor where there is no wifi it should yse data networks. ..but no possibility.
Loved the app. Used it all the time. I upgraded to Lollipop yesterday and now it doesn't work. It doesn't change the profiles as configured.
Won't disconnect mobile data on LG G4.
Mobile data not working with the app. Pls rectify and i will give 5 stars
Would be even better if you could control system volume.
Thank you! From a lollipop user
It's buggy. For meetings I need something very simple: no ring, no vibra (a vibrating phone on the table is louder than a ringing one), but it is not able to do that. If it is on silent it vibrates, also if the option is disabled.
No problem at all understanding the timed profile function like some people are saying. A profile scheduler would be helpful, though bulky for people who don't need it (plug-in, perhaps?) I need more icons...These don't suit my phones aesthetic at all. Developed a problem where the volume doesn't change back from 0 when switching from a discrete profile to an audible one.
Overall good but mobile data does not work in my one plus.
Profiles not working in S4 lollipop version. Mobile data not getting turned on on the profile selection.
I've used Quick Profiles for years until it seemed the development had stopped. I couldn't find a suitable alternate app until this. It's easy to use and takes just a few minutes to set up. Great app.
Very good. Good looking and easy to use but lacks the ability to control the SMS ringtone, volume and vibrate. If it did that i'd be happy to donate a fiver
After testing two functions that... MALfunctioned... the vibration mode and increase ringer volume feature, the first of which overrided my system setting from OFF to ON; and the second simply did not work... I give this app 2 stars for attractive interface and simple operation.
Had been having issues with vibrations on network notifications. Solved with this app after failing with a lot of other apps available.
If a profile has a ring option on, then i cant make it silent by using default fon keys....it will make it ring again. If i choose the silent profile then it wont even let the alarm/reminder ring. Alarm n reminders overwrite all the settings. Thats basics..its pissing. Downgraded the rating.. Bcz it keeps on sucking... Uninstalled
There is a bug in this app. when i try to access the brightness settings of the app,phone locks suddenly and i can't open it again.

Upgrading from a Blackberry, I missed the sound profiles Blackberry offered. This app let me set up my own profiles and change them instantly.
Would like to add wifi trigger. Otherwise great.

Why would you default the screen brightness to 0? It makes the app completely useless.
