Edit: I was able to make an action active during only during a certain time window by having two dedicated helper actions that turned it on and off at specific times. This was rather convoluted, and I wish it had been a setting in the main action itself, or had been suggested in documentation. The action works well though since I got it set up!

This is a great app. Works reliably and efficiently. Very easy to use and provides a great deal of customization and automation without rooting. Has problems with turning off WiFi when out of range, and trigging Bluetooth rules incorrectly when multiple connections exist (like a smartwatch and a car at the same time), but I suspect that has to do with things outside of the app's control.

This app worked great for a few weeks. Until this past week location triggers were accurate and reliable as I was running on a traditional router for wifi. Once I switched to a mesh network for wifi the app locates me 7 miles away and back home within minutes repeatedly turning my wifi and Bluetooth off and on. After reboot, reinstall and delete rules and recreate its the same. Once I stop this app everything goes back to normal. Wrote support and weeks later no reply so uninstalling and give a suitable rating
