App lock
In Ajustes › Seguridad › Bloqueo de la app (Settings › Security › App lock) you can require Yammbot to unlock when opened, so no one else can change your rules from your phone. There are three options:
- Sin bloqueo (None) — anyone with your phone can open Yammbot.
- PIN de 5 dígitos (PIN) — a 5-digit code specific to Yammbot, independent from your phone’s own lock.
- Huella o bloqueo del sistema (System lock) — your fingerprint, your face or your phone’s screen lock, if your model supports it.
Creating or changing your PIN
Choose a 5-digit PIN and repeat it to confirm. It will be asked every time you open Yammbot. You can change it later from Ajustes › Cambiar PIN (Settings › Change PIN).
The PIN isn't saved to the cloud
The PIN isn’t included in the cloud backup: it’s a local setting on that phone. If you forget it, the app offers no way to recover it.
Home screen widget
Yammbot has a home screen widget that lets you see and change the state of auto-replies (on or paused) without opening the app. Add it like any other widget: long-press your home screen, choose Widgets and look for Yammbot.
Quick settings
Yammbot also adds a tile to Android’s quick settings (the panel you pull down from the top). Edit your quick settings to add it, and you’ll be able to turn auto-replies on or off with a tap, just like Wi-Fi or airplane mode.
App updates
Since Yammbot is installed outside Google Play, updates don’t arrive on their own:
- The app itself tells you when a new version is available.
- You can check yourself in Acerca de › «Buscar actualización» (About › “Check for update”).
- If there’s a new one, it downloads inside the app; install it over the one you have, without uninstalling, to keep your rules and settings.
