A curious and ingenious application for Android smartphones allows you to adjust the volume level of the ringtone based on the noise around you . So if you are in the car with loud music, if you keep the phone in your pocket, if we are in a very noisy place or bar, the ringtone will automatically be set to high volume so as not to miss incoming calls.
If, on the other hand, you find yourself in a silent place, waiting for the doctor, in a place where there is silence around you, you can make your cell phone ring at the minimum volume, so as not to get caught and without disturbing anyone .
In this way, for every occasion, the ringer can behave in an intelligent way and will have a volume to be heard without disturbing.
The application that allows you to adjust the volume of the phone's ringtone, automatically, based on the level of ambient noise, also uses the proximity sensor to detect if you keep the phone in your pocket in order to allow maximum volume.
The application is completely automatic and is configured almost by itself.
Intelligent Ringer (no longer exists) is a free application for Android smartphones (LG; Samsung, Sony, HTC etc.) that you just need to start and tap on the Start button to run it.
But first you need to press on the Settings menu to change some options for adjusting the ringtone volume .
Before starting, press the 'Calibrate' button at the bottom of the settings menu and proceed with the calibration of the noise sensor.
First it adjusts to a noisy environment, then to silence in order to obtain optimal regulation.
Going to the settings, you can indicate the maximum volume and the minimum volume of the ringtone.
The pocket setting defines the amplification to be applied to the volume level if the mobile phone is in your pocket .
Be careful because if you set too high a value, it may not work and the ringtone will not go up automatically if you keep the phone in your pocket.
After finishing changing the settings to your taste and calibrating the application, go back to the main page and press the Start button.
Once started, the application adds a notification icon to the status bar that signals its running in the background.
Even if the application works as expected and can be really useful, it is necessary to report an extra bateria consumption due to the constant use of the proximity sensor of the smartphone and the microphone.
Other than that, it is a truly recommended app for anyone who often forgets to change the volume level of the phone depending on the situation or environment.
