Ratings and reviews

This app was great and I used it for several years, even bought the paid version. However, over the past couple months, it stopped working. My scheduled time triggers would go off at the wrong time and sometimes not at all. I'm not sure if a recent android update caused this, but this app is no longer useful at all. I contacted the developer, but got no reply.

I have the pro version and it's been working ok for years to change sound volume. But the longer I've had the app, the less useful it seems, the list of useful actions is short and the triggers seem difficult to set. For example, a simple action to flip Android Dark mode on and off at different times of day is impossible.

After an automatic update of this app, most of my rules that require permissions started failing. I found that if I edited one of the failing rules by changing any parameter, saving, edit and change tha parameter back to it's original state and again saving, the rule again worked. Interestingly enough, all other failing rules began working automatically after the single edit to the first rule! Been using this app for a few years, love it! Don't like the devs silence on the issue tho...

What's new

Lots and lots of updates to support newer Android versions
