Its a great idea, but it needs some tweaking! Like a requirement of you to have to cover the proximity sensor for at least 3-5 seconds before it activates, atm just trying to swipe to close a text conversation can initiate a call!

Disabling it for the time being, until a setting for a time delay is implemented :)

Exactly the same for me: greaaaaaaat app, but need a delay to avoid swipe to close initiate a call!

You can do that already... press the silence button when it is ringing, that will be replaced by an SMS button, press that & your prepared message is there, with recipient populated just waiting for you to click send...

Is there a way to change the default message?:confused:

Hi guys,

I've totally forget to create a properly thread for this app (and no ibrakalifa , I'm not angry with you, rather I would thank you ;) )
Anyway I've received a lot of mail about the proximity sensor sensitivity, so I'll work on it to make it customizable in some way.
Thank you.


Regards,
Daniele.

How about adding a "phone pickup gesture" check using the accelerometer before checking the proximity sensors?

What do you mean? Can you explain a bit more?

You need to have 2 checks before you initiate a call.
1 - Accelerometer
2 - Proximity
3 - Initiate call

If you want to call someone or receive a call, you'll bring the phone towarts your ear. You can "calculate" this "move" with the accelerometer.
If the accelerometer picks up the gesture (that you put the phone to your ear), it'll activate the proximity sensor. If the proximity sensor is covered with your head/ear, it will initiate the call.

This is a great feature, more important than I thought!

I just updated to version 1.0.1.

Now it waits for a second or two before initiating the call. This simple feature prevents the accidental call when you cover the proximity sensor with a finger.

very intelligent feature indeed ,as it always initiated a call when i used my ryt thumb for swiping the window from up to down to close the app !!!!! Thanx a lot !!!!

In fact, you can change your timeout value in Settings. So if you prefer to wait for 10 seconds before initiating the call, now you can.

Thanks b0unc3.
