How did we get the idea for this App?

The App was an idea that actually generated from my own foolishness! One fine night, I came back from office dead tired as I used to be every day. It was post midnight and still my wife was waiting for dinner. She was quite upset and worried as my cell had concked off in the evening and I had not charged it.

Fearing the number of emails that I may have missed during the time my phone was off, I immediately put it on charging. Meanwhile, my wife took out the dinner and was warming it in the microwave. This did not mean that she was not angry anymore, she had asked me a million times to take the car charger with me but I kept on forgetting it. As the typical believer in Murphy's Law, I knew that something else would go wrong and it did go wrong. As soon as the phone switched on, as it was charging, it started to beep and vibrate due to the missed calls and emails. I saw a look in my wife's eyes that she was just about to throw my phone in the dustbin.

So I got up from the dinner table and rushed to make my phone silent. As I still did not want to miss my boss's call, I put the phone on a vibration mode. What I did not realize that in a hurry, I had left the phone nearly on the edge of the table. I went back to the dinner table, tried to talk cute stuff with my wife, just to chill her (which I was successfully able to). Once the dinner was over, we headed back to our bedroom, leaving the phone on the table.

The next morning, I got up and as a habit tried to reach for my phone on the side table. When I did not find it there, I remembered that I had kept it for charging in the drawing room, so I went out. And there I saw my phone, with the touchscreen broken and lying on the floor. At first I thought it was my wife who was still angry and broke my phone, but sure she is not a maniac, so what happened?

Then is struck me, my phone had been vibrating all night due to calls and emails and slowly reached the edge of the table and fell of. I checked with a lot of friends of mine and realized that a lot of them had the similar experience. I just thought, I will switch of the vibrations each night . However, this was impractical, I could not remember to swich of the vibrator all the time an neither could I switch of the vibrator permanently (as it was a very good tool when the phone was in my pocket).

This is how the idea for an App that could suppress the vibrations of my phone when I put it on charging mode, came!.
