## Description

Volume Control delivers one-tap presets, a max volume cap, and a floating volume button for quick access anywhere. Create volume profiles (**presets**) for different situations—Meeting, Workout, Sleep—and switch instantly from your notification shortcuts. Automate changes with timers, time schedules, Bluetooth/headphones, location, and calendar events.

Lock and cap volume to prevent sudden changes with a volume lock and a volume limiter. Use widgets for quick access and enjoy optional upgrades to unlock everything. Extras include separate ringer/notification volumes where supported, ringtone changes, pocket‑locker style protection, Tasker/Locale integration, and multi-language support.

## Review summary

Reviews praise the app for broad, all-in-one audio controls and useful features like profiles/scheduling and unlocking system volume. However, recurring downsides include intrusive ads in the free version and a subscription requirement for basic features, along with reliability/compatibility issues across Android versions (volume not lowering enough, schedules failing, lack of per-app control). Overall, it's useful when it works, but pricing and consistency are major drawbacks.

### Pros

- Extensive all-in-one audio controls
- Profiles and scheduling for automation
- Unlocks system volume and helps with hardware/keyboard volume control
- Generally praised for usefulness and simplicity

### Cons

- Intrusive ads in the free version
- Subscription model demanding payment for basic features
- Reliability issues: volume may not lower enough and schedules can fail on newer Android versions
- Lacks per-app volume control and occasional spammy behavior
