Misbothering SMS Receiver vs Peace of Mind+
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Misbothering SMS Receiver
Stop spam SMS alerts by only playing a notification sound and vibrating your phone for senders in your contacts. To make this app work as intended, disable sound and vibration in your normal Messaging app, and let this app do it only for senders in your contacts list. If you are using a version of Android earlier than 4.4, you may like to try the original https://f-droid.org/packages/ru.glesik.nostrangersms, of which this app is a fork.
Peace of Mind+
We become more conscious of our phones as our lives become increasingly connected. Would you like to disconnect, if only for a moment? Your phone will go silent and disconnect from the world: no e-mail, no status updates, no SMS and no phone calls. Choose how long you wish to disconnect (up to 12 hours). Originally developed by Kwame Corporation for Fairphone 1, Peace of Mind+ aims simply to bring this beautiful app to other devices, and for future Fairphone-owners patiently waiting to receive their phone! App works without root, but from Android 4.2+ root access is needed to switch to flight mode. Without root access the app will switch the phone to silent mode only.
