Washington: A new app has been developed that makes smartphones even smarter with automatic tweaking of settings as per the environment.
The Agent app for Android smartphone takes the core concept of Trigger but relies on the handset's built-in capabilities like its accelerometer, clock, Wifi or Bluetooth.
According to TechCrunch, currently the app has five different built-in agents, including Battery Agent, Sleep Agent, Parking Agent, Meeting Agent and the vital Driving Agent.
These agents function as per the need of the moment like prompting the user to dim the screen when the battery is running out, or putting the phone on silent automatically between specific hours when the user is sleeping and auto-reply to texts while one is driving or sleeping.
The parking agent automatically remembers where the car is parked while the meeting agent silences the phone during meetings based on the pre-fed data in the Google Calendar.
The app, priced at 1.99 dollars, is on sale for 0.99 dollars for the Thanksgiving weekend, the report added.
