Description
Profile Widget Lite is an app that helps you manage profiles for your phone.These profiles can handle:
* Volume (ring, notification, alarm, system and multimedia) .
* Vibration.
* Default phone ringtone.
* Default notification ringtone.
* Wi-Fi status.
* Mobile data status.
* Bluetooth status.
* Screen timeout.
* Screen brightness.
* Automatic data sync.
* Screen rotation.
* Airplane Mode.
The profiles can be activated both from the app itself and from the home screen widget provided. To add the widget, you just have to long press on an empty space on the desired home screen and select Widgets -> Profile Widget.
The home screen widget can be customized for each profile with 12 colors (6 in Lite version) and 29 icons (5 in Lite version).
Also, if you don't want to use the widget, there's the option to add shortcuts to activate the profiles to the homescreen.
From version 4.0 on, Profile Widget integrates with Tasker and Locale.
With this app you can easily switch your phone from, say, a vibration+no sound mode to a full volume mode to a completely silent mode with just a single click!.
About the permissions: the app now asks permission to read the phone state, just in order to change the volume of the calls when the phone is ringing (the only way of separating notification and ringer volume in Android 4.0+). It cannot do anything else with this information, since it does NOT have Internet access, call or SMS permissions.

Widget not working properly The widget on the home screen no longer changes when you select a different profile.

Good app to change your profiles Easy to use and does not need complex rules and gps. Less battery drain and light weight. Developer is very responsive and responds to your suggestions.

Data mining? There is always a process running, even when the widget isn't being used. Get rid of that. A background process isn't even necessary. Try Llama.
