Pros and cons of AutoSilent app for iPhone and iPad

AutoSilent app good for

I have been looking for this type of app for months, great job. The only improvement would be to allow scheduling outside the calendar (like sleeping hours), then to also allow to turn off vibrating (as it can be annoying at night). Thank you.
Since the update to V 3.0. the app permanently uses the location services, the little arrow indicating this is permanently on. With the previous version I havent had this issue, I fear that it will drain the battery. Question: is it really necessary to use the location service, when I only use the "calendar silent" function. Im still on OS 6.1.4. I can also not see a switch to enable the new Push Notification, or is this OS7 specific?
This app works great! Does everything it promises. I would like to see some improvements for the location based silent mode. Not in its functionality but in the GUI. I would like to be able to see all of my silent locations at the same time. Please add this to the GUI map display of the next version.
Just what i was looking for. Schedule phone to enter vibrate mode between certain hours or by location. Works great. Would be better if phone could enter silent mode ( no vibrate)
iPhone got wet, and silent switch got broken stock in silent mode! Apple Store had no clue how to fix it! This app fixed the problem immediately!
This is probably one of the most useful apps I have ever downloaded. So many times have I forgotten to turn my phone on silent while sleeping or at work. This app automatically synchs with ur calendar and lets you sets rules for specific times. So user friendly. Nice and basic lay out. You guys nailed. I love it

Some bad moments

I do not recommend ... it sucks, you can not create a period between 20h (evening) and 07h (in the morning) .. I request reimbursement.
I bet your intention was good on updating, but now the app drains my battery appearing with 67% of my daily battery usage in background. Once fixed, i give back 5 stars.
Not very useful. Missing a lot of options that I need. MyProfiles for jail broken iPhone is way more powerful. Needs a lot of improvement.
since the newest version arrived, the program takes up to 70% (!!!!!) of battery on iphone 6 i used the software for many months now and it was one of the best apps for me but NOW it completely unusable Very bad update!
Cannot automatically switch mode from silent to ring, and ring to silent. All the time, I have to run the app for switching......
Plain and simple: it does not work. I thought maybe it was working because it says it "has to" have location services turned on (which is a silly requirement if you just want to use the schedule), but turning location services on didnt help either.
