14 DAY TRIAL // The Symbian operating system already features the Profiles function, which enables users to customize various kinds of alerts for their mobiles. But even though you get to set a wide range of options, there are still some things that a businessman will want from a mobile phone Profile. In case you don't have time to set up your Symbian-based phone every time you want a new Profile to be active, I suggest you try Handy Profiles for Symbian.
Handy Profiles for Symbian enables you to automatically switch between profiles that have been previously personalized. The application switches these profiles according to the rules you set, which drastically shortens the time you waste changing or personalizing one of them to suit your needs. Basically, if you want to use a certain Profile that you have previously personalized, you can set a rule that will automatically switch to that Profile according to the time and location that you configured. In case you want to use the Meeting profile when you go to the office, the phone will switch to it as soon as it detects your location by using GSM cells. The same goes for all other situations that you are experiencing on a regular basis, like Silent profile when you go to sleep, or General profile when you're in crowded areas.
There are 3 types of rules that you can use to switch between profiles: Location rule, which activates a profile when you're at a certain location, Time interval rule, which activates a profile for a certain period that you previously set, and Calendar entry rule, which activates a profile when a Calendar event with a specified keyword takes place. Every profile can be switched to according to one, two or even all three rules described above. Handy Profiles for Symbian allows you to fully customize the way your Profiles will activate, and it only needs to be configured once, thus saving you a lot of time. The application can be easily accessed by short clicking the Power on/off button of the phone. Bear in mind that if you keep a long press on the Power button, your phone will still switch off. The application is available as a demo version for 14 days, after which you can buy it for $14.95 USD. Note: You can easily follow my daily guides by subscribing to the RSS feed.
