About Motion Alarm - Triggers on Pho
This is a simple app to set an alarm based on any movement of your phone. This can potentially be used to alert you in case you suspect if someone can spy or access your phone behind you.
It gives you 5 seconds once you tap the activation button to lock and keep your phone steady. You have the option to cancel it while its activating. Once activated it can only be cancelled if the phone is unlocked.
A sensitivity slider is provided to adjust trigger threshold for motion alarm. A low setting makes the trigger harder and you can assume only considerable amount of sudden phone movements would potentially trigger an alarm. While on the other hand, the highest setting should be able to trigger the alarm even on slightest movement of the phone. Again this setting should be dependent on your phone's hardware features and consequently the resulted sensitivity of alarm trigger should be adjusted accordingly.
App uses Android's Alarm audio stream to play back the siren sound, it doesn't matter if this audio stream is muted, audio will still be played once triggered at full volume even if you've earphones plugged.
Please note below points before using the app:
1) If you've kept the phone at "Total Silence", no alarm sound will be played. So ensure its not on completely silence mode.
2) For some devices, battery manager will cause issue in alarm trigger when phone is locked or on sleep. Ensure to whitelist this app with "No Restrictions" in your phone's battery manager settings to allow it to work as intended.
3) This app causes alarm sound at your phone's full volume. Familiarize yourself with its functionality before you use it. If you're downloading and trying it for the first time, make sure you know what this app is intended for and won't cause annoyance to people around.
