Set Silent Mode for a limited time
Created by: JassMan23
Description of the feature
One thing that seems to be missing from all smart phones is the ability to go silent only for a limited time. Would it be possible to add to the Sound dropdown on the Notification Menu, the ability to set a timer? ie below the Silent Mode switch, a timer selection (maybe hours & minutes spinners - which I actually hate but occupy the smallest space) so that silent mode returns to normal after a preset time. It could be either silent until a given time hh:mm or for a selected interval.
I am sure I am not the only one who forgets to turn ringing back on after watching a film or a play.
All the series 40,60 and 70 Nokia chocolate bars had "timed profiles" which even allowed you to change the wall paper, menu colours, etc., while in timed mode. In fact because it was all done with profiles, you could have a permanent vibrate only mode, and change to a timed ringer profile which returned to vibrate only, when the time was up. Because it was profile driven, you could have Loud, Quiet, Vibrate only, and totally silent choices and switch between them permanently or for a selected interval. Smart phones aren't always an improvement., but we can always try.
