We begin with an Android tool that usually costs Rs 260 and is currently free – Network Signal Refresher.

Silent Mode Pro

This one’s probably my favorite from today’s list. “Silent Mode” is an app you can use for silencing your phone’s audio whenever a particular app has been launched. It allows you select applications and activate the mode on a single click from the quick settings (Android 7.0+) or a widget. Additionally, it can bypass the phone’s default preferences and turn off the camera shutter sound.
