ShutApp is an app that helps you gain control over your other apps. Notification sounds from other apps often hinder your attention while driving and lead to accidents. While notification sounds may seem too small to put you at risk while driving, our constant need to remain connected and addiction to the social networking apps may urge us to answer calls or reply to messages even while driving.
All you need to do is select the apps that you wish to mute notification sounds for and you can carry on your tasks without any disturbances. All the while you will continue receiving your messages.

Why need ShutApp ?
![]()
Many accidents are now causedby the constant communications of drivers on social apps or utilizing sms or email. ShutApp is a single app that silences all the ‘beeps’ or any other sounds on your phone. This is of high importance when driving. Driving at high speeds you need to focus and give the road your complete attention.
Using ShutApp you can mute all the selected apps within a single tap. When you are attending important meetings or are busy with work, you need the ShutApp so that you can concentrate on the task at hand. Instead of going into the settings of each app and changing the notification sounds, you can run just a single app and mute the sounds of all other apps and you can still continue receiving messages on your phone.

ShutApp Story or Background of this Concept/Idea
Prior to proceeding to the ShutApp story, let us have a look at some facts.
- Over 1/3 of drivers (37%) have sent or received text messages while driving, and 18% say they do it regularly.
- About 13% of adult drivers have used the Internet while driving.
- Approximately 6,000 deaths and a half a million injuries are caused by distracted drivers every year.
- Almost 26% of mobile users spent 49% of their time on social networking apps like Vibe, Line ,Skype, WeChat , Tango, Nimbuzz etc.
- On an average, each American spends 2.7 hours per day on social apps
All these facts point out that the frequent and addictive use of apps creates many of the accidents that occur. Often when drivers are concentrating on driving and messages are received on social apps, they distract their attention and urge them to communicate, even while driving at high speeds.
To help bring down the number of accidents and help professionals enhance their focus on the task at hand, Fusion Informatics realized the need for automatically turning the phone on silent.

This amazing app reflects our value of life. Prevention is better than cure. ShutApp aims to bring down the number of accidents that are occurring because of use of mobile while driving. Offers, deals, promotional messages, and messages from friends on social apps – all serve as a bait to draw you into jeopardy. And even worse, it is not just the one who is driving at risk, but also the other people on the road. Our vision behind ShutApp is to minimize the use of mobile while driving. No manual action is required as we have automated the system. The automated SMS system will send a predefined SMS to any caller who calls you while you are driving.
