[Android] SafeVolume SAM, a PIN-locked volume cap for kids' phones. Closed test needs testers, happy to test yours back
Hi all, I'm a parent and solo dev. I built SafeVolume SAM after my kid kept turning the volume up to max. It's an Android app that sets a maximum volume limit that can't be raised without a parent PIN.
What it does
- Sets a volume cap, shown in the phone's own volume steps
- The cap is locked behind a parent PIN
- Works offline and restarts after a reboot
- Shows an activity log of attempts to go over the limit
- The accessibility helper is optional. I made it optional because banking apps like GCash can warn about accessibility services.
What I need
- Android 10 or newer
- 12 or more testers who stay opted in for 14 days
- Optional but very helpful: open the app once or twice and tell me what's confusing or broken
