THE APP RAP

Shake to Answer
Price: Free
For: Android Smartphones Only
By: Murat Yener

Being able to answer your smart phone by shaking it may seem like a really simple idea. Sometimes the simplest apps are among the most useful. Shake to Answer is that kind of app. Without any bells or whistles, it simply allows you to answer your phone by shaking it, bypassing the need to slide to answer. It is quick to download and takes only seconds to set up. This app is extremely useful in a variety of situations when you just need to grab your phone and answer it without having to slide or tap.

It can be especially desirable when driving. Even with an earpiece, we all know how inconvenient and even dangerous it is to slide your phone or tap it to answer. With Shake to Answer, when you hear your phone ring, you simply jiggle it and say "hello." It comes with a shaking sensitivity, giving you six levels from which to choose. You can customize how vigorously to shake your phone before it picks up-from a gentle shake to a much more rigorous quaking. You can even tailor the app to go directly to speakerphone by shaking it. Practical, straightforward, and free...an excellent app for your Android.
