I wonder if you can write an app to do this for Android, or if there are API limitations. Obviously hardware buttons for different contexts would be better than something in the pulldown buttonbar, or even better, a hardware knob, with detents.

Geofencing and time-of-day auto-profile-switching have the potential problem that they fight with your manual configuration. You turn on notifications to make sure you don't miss news from the hospital about your wife, and then an hour later the geofence turns them back off. That sort of thing has a kind of irreducible complexity and potential for user error.
