Description

When enabling the "silent mode" (Android 4.x), the "priority mode" (Android 5.0) or just switching to "vibration mode", apps are still able to play sounds through the "music" audio stream.
So music or video apps and games can still play music, even when the device should be muted.
"Media-Mute" automatically detects when you enter silent/priority/vibration mode and then sets the volume of the "music" audio stream to 0, muting even media apps and most games. When leaving silent/priority/vibration mode, the app restores your old volume.
Additionally, you can always overwrite the set volume by just increasing the volume with your hardware volume buttons while a video is playing.

The new "do not disturb mode" (Android 6.0+) works better, but apps are still able to make noise if you put your phone in "vibration" mode rather then the all-blocking DND mode.

The app is open source: https://github.com/j4velin/Media-Priority-Mode

Latest updates

What's new in version 1.0.8

Re-added NotificationListener for Samsung Android 5.1+ devices (Samsung, once again, felt the need to do something different then every other manufacturer and implementeded the bugged 5.0 priority mode again in their 5.1 ROMs...). Without the NotificationListener, the app will only detect "Silent Mode" but not "Do not disturb" mode changes. Enable the NotificationListener if you use the "Do not disturb" option on Samsung devices running Android 5.1 (not required for any other manufacturer)

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

4 ★Is this only samsung? I unsucced in nova 3i.
5 ★Exactly what I needed
5 ★Data onlny me
1 ★i open the app and it does nothing
5 ★It work berry good it's asome
2 ★Didn't work
5 ★Precisely what I needed! I hate having to dig through my notification window to keep vibration but mute media. I also didn't want to use a widget on my home screen and have to close media to toggle a homescreen widget. This is great and should be an action option in launchers.
5 ★This really is the perfect app. I prefer to mute by swiping down on notification tray, and just use the volume toggle icon (so I don't have to hold down my volume button and wait for it to hit mute mode). I'm using the Galaxy S8 and this is just what I needed. And the fact it restores volume upon un-mute is glorious. Android really should build this into stock volume functionality. My only question is in the app, there's a setting for "Show icon in launcher". What does this do? *Edit* I understand what hide icon does now. It completely hides the shortcut to the App. I don't recommend this, as there seems to be no way to get back to that settings page afterward without re-installing. Also, if you are on S8, you can already hide icons from the launcher with the stock options.
4 ★Just what I needed. Apps that silence the phone when triggered by a calendar event do not turn off multimedia or alarms. This app solves the first problem. Alarm Clock Plus solves the second one.
5 ★Does exactly what I want. Have a oneplus 5 with an alert Slider and 3 modes. Silent, do Not disturb, normal. Only Problem was that do not disturb didnt mute Media volume. With this App that Problem is gone. Thanks allot
1 ★In android 6 when we turn on silent mode for all calls notification media ..in that time media volume cannot increase ...i want this feature... In your app its a simple macro which can be created by macrodroid app
5 ★Mutes the media volume when enabling do not disturb. Works very well. Fixed my biggest irritation with Android. Now I have the option to mute all sound.
