Whistle To Answer Incoming Phone Call With Auto Answer
Friends, you will love this. We have seen many unique and interesting apps in the recent posts that you can install in your smartphone. Similarly, i came across one app that you like it. We all know that talking on the phone while driving is never advisable. Its also illegal in some of the world. But there is time when you have to receive such calls. Many time you also need to launch some app while driving, it can be a Map or a Contact to call or Message. But that can be very dangerous on the road.
But now its just a whistle away. Did I say Whistle? Yes, now you can answer your phone call by just whistling. Isn't that interesting. Auto Answer is a car-mode app, with a twist. Not only does it offer a driving interface with a quick one-touch dialing interface for up to 18 of your contacts, Auto Answer also lets you answer a phone call simply by whistling. No more reaching over to swipe your smartphone to accept the call.
Auto Answer will run on any Android version above 2.3.3, so you shouldn't have any problems with compatibility as long as you’re running a relatively recent Android smartphone.
1. The first time you run the app, you will be bombarded with information on what to expect from Auto Answer. It is recommended that you go through the displayed information to familiarize yourself with what the app can do.
2. Once you understood the application, click on the Green Go button.
3. Then you will see the a pop-up window asking you if you want to enable the whistle-to-answer feature, plus how long before the app silences the incoming call. You can change them later.
Lets explore the features of Auto Answer:
Using Auto Answer
1. Driving Mode Dialer
Auto Answer has two types of Driving Mode dialers: one that will give you one-touch access to up to 18 contacts, and another for up to 9 of your favourite applications.
To enable Driving Mode and access these dialer's, tap on the icon to the right of the Driving Mode dialer text on the app’s main screen. This will bring the app into Driving Mode, and give you access to the dialer's.
The first time you enter Driving Mode, the contacts dialer will offer to automatically add contacts to the dialer, based on your most frequently called contacts. If you want to add contacts yourself, just tap on the Edit checkbox in the upper right to enable editing mode. In this mode, the circles will turn to gold, and you’ll be able to add or remove contacts as you see fit. The same applies to the app dialer.
The Force screen on option is there if you want the dialer to keep your smartphone’s screen on, for instance, if you’re waiting for an incoming call. There’s also an option in the Settings screen to automatically enable Driving Mode when connected to a Bluetooth device.
Whistle To Answer
The main highlight of Auto Answer is the whistle-to-answer feature. To enable this feature, just tap on the switch to the right of Answer to incoming call by whistling on the app’s main screen. This will enable the whistle-to-answer functionality of the app.
The app will also automatically enable your speakerphone if you answer a call by whistling. To tweak the functionality of this feature, you’ll need to go into the Settings screen. Scroll down until you find the section that has to do with this whistle-to-answer feature:
Here, you can change the amount of time before your ringtone is silenced as well as choose between five levels of whistle detector sensitivity. You can also set whether this functionality only activates during Driving Mode and whether to disable noise cancellation.
Automatic SMS Scheduling
Auto Answer can also be used to schedule and automatically send SMS's when you’re not available. Just tap on the switch to the right of the Schedule automatic SMS setting and you’ll be taken to the Schedule automatic SMS settings screen.
Here, you can define an end time for the automatic SMS function, choose recipients and the content of the SMS. The SMSes can be sent to all incoming calls, numbers in the contact list, numbers not in contact list or a specific contact. You also have a number of choices for the text you want to send in these automatic SMS's, but note that the free version doesn’t let you edit these messages.
There’s also another automatic SMS-related options in the app’s main Settings screen. Here, you can enable an option to prompt you about enabling automatic SMS every time your smartphone is switched to silent mode.
When i installed it and tried, i was happy with the result. No need of swiping the phone to answer not even need to reach their to pick it up. Just whistle and answer the phone. The basic app is free, but there’s also a Pro version that removes ads and lets you edit the messages for the Automatic SMS feature, amongst others. Yes, one more important thing, this app has one drawback, if you don't know how to whistle, just don't install this app.
