I was looking for an app if you didn't read my question. Obviously I could also just write it down on a paper...

Anyway this seems perfect

Btw, did anyoone notice that with a recent GV update, you now get notifications from GV for each text even if you previously disabled that by selecting in the GV settings to only get messages through the regular text messaging app? When trying to deselect the text messaging notifi, it's greyed out because it's set to not notify from GV anyway so why should they let you edit that setting ;)

The way to fix it is to temporarily select to receive via the GV app. Then it lets you edit that option and deselect the text messaging notifi option, and then you change the setting back to getting text via the regular messaging app.

You can make a widget which toggles Google voice usage.

Shopular

Most awesome DDFer app for shopping/coupons to date so far, better than all the other coupon apps I've seen or installed.

Shush is an app I use almost daily. When you silence your phone a pop up appears asking how long you want it silenced for. Say you choose 15 minutes - 15 minutes later the volume turns back on without you doing anything. As someone who never remembers to turn the volume back on when coming out of shul, a movie, et al, its proven useful a million times. Works seamlessly with your phone's volume buttons; you don't need to open an app or anything. I highly recommend.
