    What is Locale?

    With Locale, you create situations specifying conditions under which your phones settings should change. For example, your "At School" situation notices when your location condition is "77 Mass Ave," and changes your ringer volume setting to vibrate.

    PLUG-INS
    Locale manages more than your ringer. Along with built-in conditions (Battery, Calendar (Android 4.0+), Caller, Location, Orientation, Time) and built-in settings (Bluetooth, Display Brightness, Display Timeout, Ringtone, Volume, Media Volume, Shortcut, Wallpaper, Wi-Fi), Locale expands with an advanced plug-in architecture. Over 400 Locale plug-ins exist on Google Play.

    I use Locale for basic stuff, such as keeping my WiFi off except when I'm at home or work, switching my phone to silent while I'm at work but whacking the volume up to full when I'm at the supermarket or at home - unless it's after midnight but before 8am, when my phone is again set to silent. Simple things that save me time and hassle.

    I haven't set up many situations yet but once you've got them set up it's easy to just set and forget. It's great. This is where you start to notice the gap between Android and iPhone, because an app like this wouldn't work on a non-jailbroken iPhone.

    By FAR the most expensive tool of this type. $9.99? There are others, like Chronos, that do all the same things, or more, for as little as $0.99 for the full version.
