Motion Alarm - Triggers on Phone Movement
It gives you 5 seconds once you tap the activation button to lock and keep your phone steady. You have the option to cancel it while its activating. Once activated it can only be cancelled if the phone is unlocked.
A sensitivity slider is provided to adjust trigger threshold for motion alarm. A low setting makes the trigger harder and you can assume only considerable amount of sudden phone movements would potentially trigger an alarm. While on the other hand, the highest setting should be able to trigger the alarm even on slightest movement of the phone. Again this setting should be dependent on your phone's hardware features and consequently the resulted sensitivity of alarm trigger should be adjusted accordingly.
App uses Android's Alarm audio stream to play back the siren sound, it doesn't matter if this audio stream is muted, audio will still be played once triggered at full volume even if you've earphones plugged.
Please note below points before using the app:
1) If you've kept the phone at "Total Silence", no alarm sound will be played. So ensure its not on completely silence mode.
2) For some devices, battery manager will cause issue in alarm trigger when phone is locked or on sleep. Ensure to whitelist this app with "No Restrictions" in your phone's battery manager settings to allow it to work as intended.
3) This app causes alarm sound at your phone's full volume. Familiarize yourself with its functionality before you use it. If you're downloading and trying it for the first time, make sure you know what this app is intended for and won't cause annoyance to people around.

Very nice timing with the sensor, but there are some tings: 1st. The sound can be a higher quality tone and louder. 2nd. When connected to bluetooth after alarm is on and sounding the tone, after recieved, answered and ended phone call the tone kept playing from the earpiece. {Volume slider} was kept on "Phone Call" (like the call is still in progress) and moved by default by pressing button. (maybe an Android10 oneUI 2.0 bug) 3rd. You can add fingerprint security for Galaxy s10. Thanks!! π
Hi, It works ok short term, but i set it @ 11pm and somehow it turns itself off (by 6am) all by itself! I added it to backround use as advised, but it turns itself off, (disarms) defeating the purpose! Im stumped. galaxy s10. Any advise? Happened every time i enabled it! :-( is a 5 star app if it did not disarm itself!
It is a great app and I use it as an earthquake alarm. But, top sensitivity is extremely sensitive, 1 step lower is too different from it. Can you make the difference a little less? I have to shake the phone at "one step lower" sensitivity to trigger the alarm.
Great app! I would love it even more, if you could add a 'Call an Alarm' feature.
It's good app but after about 10 to 15 minute of activating the App, it doesn't work .
Very cool. I'd give it 5stars if it texted me that someone was meddling
Horrible picked the phone up and forgot i had the alarm on it did not go off until i unlocked my phone. Kinda useless
How about a motion sensitivity control and a darker screen selector? My only complaints before a 5 star.
Does nothing while phone is in sleep. Triggers alarm when I wake it up. Useless.
Doesn't go off if something moves fast but goes off when something moves slow
About time an app does what it should do I'll look for more apps from this company 5 stars all round.
Doesn't work while the screen is off
Yep good find I know a few people that tried to take phone, now they cant , ty for this app

Very good app recommending to download
It works but you have ro make big moshen
Simple but effective.
It could work with other system
Is a good app
Works as expected.
Really useful
I had to test this after the hilarious bad English negative reviews. This works great, sensitivity is awesome. I will be testing this in old Android phones for an alarm system. Going to have one installed on a gate outside and have it connected to a BT speaker inside to alert me if the gate is messed with. This is an excellent program. Great job utilizing the sensors for such a great tool. Consider allowing users to use their own alarm sounds. I would like to record myself warning intruders.
