How to Enable Flip to Shhh on any Android Device using Tasker

When the first time I got my hands on a Pixel device [I guess it was probably the Pixel 4A], I was quite impressed with its Flip to Shhh feature. For the unaware, it will turn on DND and silence all notifications when you place the device upside down on a flat surface. Since then, I have switched quite a lot of devices, but this is one feature that I always find the need to have. While you can easily enable it by flashing a module on a rooted device, however, rooting a device brings in quite a few risks with itself. So what else can be done?
Well, you can use one of the [or rather the] most popular automation apps, Tasker. So in this guide, we will show you the steps to enable the Flip to Shhh feature on your Android device. I’ll show you two ways- either manually create this task or simply import the XML file to create one for you. So without any further ado, let’s get started on this interesting journey.

- Again, tap on plus > select Variables > Variable Set > Type in %OldNotif in Name and %VOLN under To.
- Once more, tap on plus > select Audio > Ringer Volume > Set level 0
- Again, tap on plus > select Audio > Notification Volume > Set level 0
- Once more, tap on plus > select Audio > Do Not Disturb > On.
- Now, create a new task and name it RestoreVolume.
- Open it > hit Plus > Task > If. Under Condition, type %OldRinger and change the condition to SET. Go back and select If.
- Inside this block, hit Plus > Audio > Ringer Volume > Hit the cross icon to bring up the text field > Name it %OldRinger.

Import XML Profile to Tasker
Benefit: One-click process- just load the XML file and you're good to go.
Drawback: Fine-tuning the settings might be a tad bit difficult task, whatever is given in the XML file, you'll have to go with that only.

- Then launch Tasker, go to Profile, long-press on Profiles, Import Profile, select Orientation Face Down Profile, and import it.
