Put your phone on vibrate for a few hours, then back
Some routines only need to last a while. End the sentence with how long, and Rulomi puts every setting the routine changed back to what it was when it started.
Type this
Every day at 9 pm put my phone on vibrate and set screen timeout to 30 seconds, restore everything after 2 hoursRulomi's on-device parser understands this as written, so it works with the AI planner switched off.
What Rulomi builds
- WHEN
- Every day at 21:00
- THEN
- Set the ringer to vibrate
- Set the screen timeout to 30 seconds
- AFTER
- After 2 hours, the ringer and the screen timeout go back to what they were at 21:00.
You see this on the review screen before you enable it, and nothing runs until you do.
Access it asks for
- Do Not Disturb access, which Android also requires for the ringer and the ring and notification volumes.
- Modify system settings, for brightness, screen timeout and auto-rotate.
- Precise timing is optional. Without it Android may run the routine a few minutes late.
Rulomi asks for access per routine, when a routine needs it, not all at once when you install.
Variations
Every weekday at 9 am put my phone on vibrate, restore everything after 6 hoursA working morning on vibrate. Six hours is the longest a restore can wait.
Good to know
- Android treats vibrate and silent as Do Not Disturb states, which is why a ringer change needs Do Not Disturb access.
- The restore puts back what the settings were when the run started. It overwrites anything you changed by hand in the meantime.
- Pausing or deleting the routine stops its future runs, and a restore that was waiting doesn't happen.
