[APP] SMS Sentinel

Now available at the Android Market!

Sentinel - one that keeps guard, a sentry. *One who gives a warning or indicates danger.

SMS Sentinel is designed with the growing problem of Distracted Driving in mind. *Television and Newspapers are filled almost daily with tragic stories of accidents resulting from distracted driving. *Most of these accidents were avoidable if they had paid attention while driving.
**
No state bans all cell phone use (handheld or hands-free) for all drivers, but many prohibit use by *Novice Drivers and School Bus Drivers, and many have restrictions on texting.

Text messaging, whether receiving or sending is dangerous. *As many as 30 states, D.C. and Guam ban text messaging for all drivers. *But as many of us have seen for ourselves while out and about, many are still texting while driving.

How many times have you watched someone reach for their phone, read and send a response out seconds after they get a message? *How many of them were driving at the time? *Wouldn

SMS Sentinel V1.2 adds some key features in response to suggestions. The most significant feature is the optimization of GPS and sensor use to improve battery performance. Also, several customers asked for a feature to use SMS Sentinel in a "manual mode" where GPS and Sensors are not used at all, but the app can still "auto-respond" and block incoming text notifications. This is an important feature when you might be a passenger in a vehicle, or perhaps at work and still want to use the app.

SMS Sentinel User Manual

After registration, you can see the status of the Sentinel on the main page. There are 4 items on the page, and pressing the system menu button provides access to the Info/Settings Page, and the ability to temporarily suspend the Sentinel from interfering with SMS/MMS.

1) The SMS Driving instant reply message and check box are used if you want an auto reply to be sent to any incoming SMS/MMS. For example, if the check box is selected, whatever message is in the message box will be sent to anyone that sends you a message while the Sentinel determines you are driving (both BLOCKING and DRIVING indicators are GREEN).
* v1.2 added button to change from GPS Mode to Manual Mode on the first screen. Touching the button toggles the mode and displays a brief message. If you are on Manual Mode, App does not check GPS, therefore decreases battery drain. If the check-box beside the auto-response text is checked it silences notification and sends auto-response text. If unchecked, notifications are on, while no auto-response text is sent.
** Note: With the Sentinel Option enabled, when sending a SMS/MMS on Manual Mode, app turns on long enough to determine if you are moving greater than 5 mph, and if so, it will log the violation.

2) Indicators for BLOCKING and DRIVING turn GREEN when the Sentinel is blocking SMS and determines you are driving. If you are driving and select the
