Call Manager Trial belongs to the Tools category in the Google Play store. The app lets you decide when people can call or text. All the calls and texts from contacts not on the list are directed to the voicemail.

The app has three main options: ‘Create Schedules and Activities’, ‘Override Standard Schedule’ and ‘Configure Options’. ‘Create Schedules and Activities’ has two sub-options, namely Set Call Schedule and Set Activity.

Using the ‘Set Call Schedule’ option you can set the time period during which you want to receive calls from contacts. Your phone will accept calls within the schedule. When the calls do not fall within the schedule, they are directed to voicemail automatically. The app provides two default lists: Everyone and People in Contacts. The app also gives you options to create a fresh schedule, where you can add new lists like close buddies, family and much more. You can set time frames for each of the lists.

For each of the individual groups that you have created, you can set ringtones or vibrate options for the calls. You are also provided with additional choices where you can add another range (time frame to receive a call), delete the range and copy the range to all the other days of the week.

By making use of the ‘Set Activity’ option, you can bar calls by scheduling an activity. When you create or edit an activity you can include exceptions (like allowing calls from certain people, like your parents or children). People whom you do not exempt will be automatically directed to voicemail.

With the ‘Override Standard Schedule’ option, you can easily turn on DO NOT DISTURB, or turn on/off an activity with just a click. Using ‘Configure Options’ you can choose to display the time in standard/military format and put the phone in silent mode when you receive a phone call/text. You can even fix a widget to the home screen of your smartphone. With this widget you can easily keep track of the current status, like what activity or override is currently on and when it will come back to the original schedule.

Though Call Manager Trial has got a clear description to each of the options, I must admit that I found it quite difficult to handle. The app could have had a better management interface.

Call Manager Trial is a free app that comes with a seven day trial. You can continue using this app by making an in-app purchase.

You can inspect the site and generate reports based on the results.

From this point on it’s up to you to decide where you want to go.

Smart Recommendations:

If you’ll love one of the recommendations, the app will update with other genres and artists pertaining to the same musical style. However, if you don’t, the app will just stop recommending you that particular music style and propose you something different.

Intelligent Programming:

Taste filter is also an intelligent app that remembers your preferences and as it knows you better, it starts making better recommendations.

The app belongs to the books and reference category in the Google Play store. Unlike the usual storybooks, Gaudi Bruno is very interactive and exciting.

The app’s storyline is very interesting. Gaudi Bruno, the marsican brown bear cub lives with his family at the Abruzzo National Park in Italy. Every morning, he helps his father pick up all the sweetest berries in the woods. In the evenings, he helps his mother make muffins and cookies. He loves honey so much that he sneaks off from home to steal it.

The little bear often felt very lonely. One fine day, he learns that he is going to school and is excited about making new friends. Bruno’s parents warn him about how different other animals would be. To his parents’ surprise, Bruno learns many new things from his friends.

The app provides two options where you can choose to read by yourself or listen to the story being narrated. Children can easily practice reading as the words light up on the screen as they are read. Gaudi Bruno has got professional narration. Your kids will definitely enjoy the abundant interactive games within the story and Bruno’s world. The controls in the app are very simple. All your kid has to do is tap on the screen to enjoy the various animation effects. The app delivers a message that all animals are not the same and they are not dangerous. Every animal is unique and has its own nature. Gaudi Bruno also introduces kids to various animals like the wolf, hedgehog, fawn, bat and skunk.

Gaudi Bruno is exclusively designed for children aged 3 to 7. The app allows you to switch between English, Spanish and Italian. The graphics are fantastic with many colors and details. I downloaded this app on my smartphone and instantly fell in love with the little bear and his cute smile. My nephew loves to listen to Bruno’s adventures at school, and dance along with the skunk, Sophie. I felt that the background music in the app could have been more natural.

Gaudi Bruno costs $3.55 and requires Android 2.2 or later versions. You can also check out the trial version of the app, Gaudi Bruno Lite.
