Looking for an App that forces iPhone into sleep/lock mode

I don't need anything fancy.  Searching the app store has proved fruitless.
I don't need any password protection.  I dropped my phone and it broke the sleep/lock button.
I just wanna lock my phone so I can throw it into my purse without pressing buttons and using power.
As it is now I've set the auto lock to 1min and stand around waiting til it shuts off, however this is frustrating because when I'm using it its usually on for hours at a time and 1min of idle shuts it down so I have to go into settings and set autolock to never... and then go back and set it to 1m to shut it down.
If anyone can name an app to lock/sleep my phone I'd be grateful.  If you don't know of an app... perhaps you could write one and sell it on app store.
Dayna.
ps.  if you write one please send me the name.  I'm probably not the only one with a dropped phone!
pps.  Reset, Restore, Restore as new have all failed.

As already provided, Apple does not make the necessary API's available to developers to do what you want. Only Apple could implement such.

  • I am looking for an app that can unmute my iphone after a preset time, eg 1 or 2 hours. Does anybody know an app with this feature?? The apps I have found are linked to a calendar or a place, I just need the timer function..

    I am looking for an app that can unmute my iphone after a preset time, eg 1 or 2 hours. Does anybody know an app with this feature?? The apps I have found are linked to a calendar or a place, I just need the timer function..

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

  • Looking for a app that will go out and get all my credit card balances.

    I am looking for a App that can go on all the web sites for my Credit Cards and download the balance Interest Rate Payment.....
    Anyone know of a good one?

    I recommend that instead of working on an iPad application you get a good web programmer in and set up a web-facing system that can be used from anything with a web browser --  an iPad, a smartphone, a laptop or a desktop.  Then your employees can access the system from any computer with a web browser, and you don't need to employ an expensive specialist programmer to produce a system which is useless for devices made by other manufacturers.  The only requirement for use will be that your devices must in range of either WiFi or a phone signal.
    It will also mean that if you need to change your software at any time you only have to change one copy, back at headquarters, rather than update an App on every individual iPad.
    Apple's web browsers (including the ones built into iDevices) allow a web site to request the user's location, so people using an iPad should be able to do the things you have asked for.

  • I'm looking for an app that will allow me to upload my contracts and forms to my iPad, fill in a customer's personal information, sign them, save them and email them.

    I'm looking for an app that will allow me to upload my contracts and forms to my iPad, fill in a customer's personal information, sign them, save them and email them.  I looked at easySign, Filemaker, FM Touch, Sign Docs, Zosh, Exzact, Mi-Co

    FormConnect (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/formconnect/id432653695?mt=8&ls=1) can handle the filling out, signing, saving and emailing the contracts/forms but uploading the contract and the form is going to be a challenge because you’re dealing with paper documents that have to be scanned.  If you can convert the scanned documents into an OCR program, you might be able to copy and paste the contract without having to retype it but the form itself is probably going to have to be recreated.  Alternatively, you could use a document annotation program such as iAnnotate and mark up the contract with ink.

    ok.. i am new to iphone and iOS and i just thought there might be some solution for this. Since they have the new notifications similar to Android, i was hoping there will be some simple app for this. Thats all.
    If there is no solution, you can say its not possible. I dont want you to tell me if I have to go back to Android or not. I bought iphone 4s becasue i liked it.

  • Looking for an App that supports Text Searching in PDF (more complex finding text))

    I try to explain it clearly since my English not good
    when I using Ipad to search with some app like PDF expert. I can search words if I only type one single words or I type more than one words but these words are continuous in one sentence. Example like this
    In this case. I type "and for the", and I got the result, because these three words are contiunuous in one sentence
    But if I type words that not continuous but seperated in the file like this one. I don't get any result.
    So, I'm looking for an app that read pdf and can search multiple words at same time. Like what preview does in the mac
    See in the mac preview, we can search different words at same time and still get all the results.
    So, Is there any similar PDF app that offer same function on IPad?
    THanks so much

    Yes, PDFPen for the Mac does do multiple word searching.  I just tried it using this example:
    I searched the iPad User Guide for "switch control".  It only found those two words together.
    Next, I searched for "switch".  It found additional occurrences.
    I did find, however, that I was required to place the two words "switch control" inside double quotes to find the two words together (and only that string).
    UPDATE:  Oops, sorry, the above statemant about the double quotes being required is false.  Sorry, I used Preview by accident when I wrote that.
    Indeed, PDFPen works just as you seem to want ... searching for "switch control" (without quotes in the search string) finds only those two words together.
    UPDATE 2:  Oops ... it sounds like this is just exactly the opposite of what you want.  You are looking for something that, when searching for "switch control", finds all occurrences of "switch" and all occurrences of "control".  If that is right, PDFPen won't help you.

  • LOOKING FOR AN APP THAT WILL ALLOW ME TO READ A PDF DOCUMENT OFF LINE

    My itouch has 8 Gb of RAM and I am looking for an app that will allow me to store a PDF document in memory and read it off line as there are times when I do not have access to WiFi. I can email myself the document but I am off line, I don't think that the inbox is an off line folder from which an attachment can be viewed off line, right? Therefore the reason I am looking for the ability to save and read off line.
    Thanks!!

    No, incorrect. The inbox is an *off line* folder, just as it is on a computer. Once you download the email from the server, it is in your iPod/computer and you can access it when you like.

  • Looking for an app that combines an equalizer with video out.

    I'm looking for an app that has video out (like "Upsize" or the iPod built-in photo slideshow) with an equalizer (preferably like "Denon Audio" or "EQ Pro" so that I can listen to equalized music through my TV. Upsize is close, as it allows for album art to be displayed on my TV while the music plays however, it does not control volume and you must use the iTunes equalizer before you start the app. My TV is the type that will not play audio without an accompanying video signal when using a component cable to connect my iPod to the TV inputs.

  • Looking for an app that takes presence!

    Hi,
    We are looking for an APP that would allow us to copy a contact list from an excel file and then strike the name if the person is present at the event.
    When the event is over, I would like to save that list and export it back to my computer.
    Is there an app that would suit my need?
    Alex

    Why not just open your excel file in an app that edits excel documents? That app would be far more useful than a specific use app, in that you could use it for all kinds of documents other than your attendance.
    Jason
    p.s. unless you have a mac with iWork on it, I wouldnt suggest Numbers on iPad because it cannot export back to excel yet from iPad.
