Mutator: complete mute for iPhone and iPad

Mutator - a hardware mute switch for your iPhone. How is it, you ask? On the iPhone already has a similar lever on the left side of the body! Wow. But always off lever is mute? As practice shows, not always. However, savvy guys from Mahlergate found an original way out of the situation.

If you switch the sound of the standard switch, you will not hear the sound of incoming calls, but it does not turn off the notification sounds and reminders. As a rule, it is convenient: I do not want to miss important reminders. And yet, the complete "silence" on the iPhone can not be achieved.

Mutator silences all sounds on the iPhone to lock port for headphones. When playing music or audio playback, the application or the iPhone itself think that the phone is connected headphones. Thus, the sound goes to the port for headphones connected to the Mutator. To receive such kind of "crutches".

To implement Mutator creators requested 24 thousand dollars on Kickstarter. 21 days before the end of the fundraising, they've managed to collect over 17 thousand dollars. So, Mutator surely see the light, and it is possible that it will be interesting to many.
