Sound Profile needs specific permissions to control all the powerful features. This list shows the permissions needed:
Modify System Settings and Do Not Disturb access
These are the only two basic permissions that must be granted the first time you use the app. Both are required in order to start using Sound Profile.
Modify System Settings is needed to allow Sound Profile to activate vibration, screen brightness, driving mode, turn on Wifi, and other needed settings for the main purpose of this application.
Do Not Disturb access is also required to allow Sound Profile to activate Silent profiles.
Take a look at this video to see how to activate this permissions the first time you launch the app:
Modifying Wifi requires Location permission
Latest Android releases require that an app holds the Location permission to be able to manage Wifi connection, as well as Tethering (Wifi hotspot) and Nearby wifi services. This is due to the following reason:
Google cars have been taking pictures of the streets (for the Street View service in Google Maps and Google Earth) but also those cars have been collecting the Wifi SSIDs along they were traveling around our cities. All that information, where an SSID is associated to a specific location, is somewhere available in the Internet. So, this means, than if an app knows that you are connected to a specific Wifi, or if a specific Wifi is near you, then it could be able to know your location. So, the result is that an app could know where you are without having the Location permission. Now, Android became more strict to protect users, so an app needs location permission granted to be able to manage Wifi connections.
Also, the location service must be enabled by you. This means that the main switch in your Android settings to allow locations must be enabled.
Sound Profile doesn’t need this permission if you do not manage Wifi services in the app.
Background Location permission
Depending on the features you activate in Sound Profile, it would need access to get your location while the app is not visible, or even when it is closed.
For example, you could set Sound Profile to automatically activate Silent profile every time you get in your place of work. Later, when leaving work, you want it to automatically activate Loud profile. You get this functionality using geofences with the Tasks & Events feature.
So, if you want to use this feature, in order to activate the right profile according to your settings, Sound Profile will display a prominent disclosure to be granted to get your device locations periodically, even when the app is not visible, even when it is closed or even when it is in the background.
If you don’t want Sound Profile to access your location, either don’t use the Geofences feature or not grant the permission. If the permission was previously granted and you don’t want it any more, you could ungrant it any time in your Android settings >> Privacy >> Permissions screen.
Of course, Sound Profile will never send any personal data, location information, or any other information to anywhere. Sound Profile will never use the information you have in your device, and/or its location, for any purpose different of what this app is supposed to do. Your privacy and your location is completely secure.

Just going to try out the app
Think you so much
Just had to say – I love this app and have the PRO version.
I have a query; under the app’s “More settings”, is the Tethering option supposed to turn off/on Mobile Hotspot?
I am running Android 12 with version 8.40 of the app.
Yes it is. But Android is limiting developers a lot. It doesn’t work for every device. It depends on the manufacturer and the Android version. In fact, it is under the “More settings” section, but also under the tag “These next features might not be available in your Android release“.
The profile’s rules and is okay
Very good app
Profile verry good
