User reviews

Zero stars - useless, likely spy application

This app has zero effect, with or without the requested access permissions to bluetooth and microphone. Seriously you can wither turn off the tone that happens every time you charge your device or you can’t! You should not need access to bluetooth or the microphone.

Needs the app screen on to work

Useless when wanting to use a clock app
Unreliable when using wireless charger

Doesn’t work as described

Requires the microphone to be on and recording, large privacy concern. Also only works when it’s on the screen, not minimized. Waste of a download

Works but confusing

Great idea badly implemented. It stops the charging sound as advertised but confuses use user with “mute microphone” messages with no explanation as to what you need to do.

Only works when it has focus

Only stops the annoying dings when app has focus. If I switch to another app, leaving it running in the background, it stops working. It’s already possible to do something like that using the native camera app, no recording required. I need something that can silence that annoying noise while I’m actually using my device. If I didn’t need to use it I could just turn it off or put it in another room. Really, this is Apple’s fault primarily, but this isn’t a solution.
