If you regularly forget your iPhone in silent mode (muted) then this app is for you! Now with VOIP support! SilentAlert Plus is an enhanced version of SilentAlert with VOIP support. SilentAlert Plus alerts you that your phone is muted in 3 cases: 1. When your switch stays silent for specific time. 2. When you leave the location where it was muted. 3. On arrival to specific locations. - The badge 1 on the SilentAlert Plus icon indicates if your device is muted. Once your device is set to ring again the badge with the number 1 is cleared. Inside the app: -------------- Settings --------- Email Support: Click on this icon to send us the console log. If the application badge contains the number 1 then your phone is muted. (Silent Mode). When no badge is displayed then your phone is not muted. (Ring mode). Alert ----- - Alert Only Once: If enabled SilentAlert Plus will notify you only once when your device is muted, otherwise you will receive notification every x minutes or x km. - Vibrate On Alert: Notification with vibration - Alert Me Every x Minutes If your switch is muted and you set the reminder time to 30 minutes (default) then you will be alerted every 30 minutes that your switch is muted (First alert will be between 30-60 minutes).
