QuickMediaMute
==============

an Android quick settings toggle to mute/unmute media audio.

![quickmediamute](quickmediamute.png)

my phone lives constantly in "vibrate" mode and i like the fact that we have two
separate volumes for ringer and media audio, but i wasn't able to find a quick
setting toggle for switching on and off the media audio (like the one we have
for changing ringer mode between mute, vibrate and sound). this "app" adds just
that: a toggle for the media audio which i find very useful when visiting
certain sites or using certain apps.

yes i could just use the volume up and down keys, but i find that a bit clunky
and when i want to unmute the audio, the previous volumes level is *lost*.

install
-------

just grab the [latest `.apk` from the releases page][20] and install it on your
phone.

i'm not an "Android developer", so i won't bother putting this thing on the
playstore (this was in fact my first Android "app").

otherwise you can build the `.apk` yourself if you don't trust me :), run:

$ ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk ./gradlew assembleRelease

(you need the Android SDK of course), then the `.apk` will be at:

app/build/outputs/apk/release/io.github.marcolucidi01.quickmediamute-v1.0.0-release.apk

me to the Android Quick Settings API.
