CONTEXT AWARE
Run tasks based on your location (geofencing), time of day, events in your calendar, app currently open, connected Wi-Fi network, remaining battery and hundreds of other conditions and triggers.

YOU’RE IN CONTROL
Not everything needs to be automatic, manually start complex tasks by clicking home screen widgets & shortcuts, Quick Settings tiles, notifications, media buttons on your Bluetooth headset, volume & other hardware buttons, by scanning NFC tags and more.

CAMERA, SOUND, ACTION
Quickly take photos using the camera, take screenshots, or begin recording audio or video. Bulk process images, crop, scale and rotate them then write as JPEG or PNG.

APP INTEGRATION
Easily integrate apps supporting the Locale/Tasker plug-in API. Otherwise, use every Android capability to do so, start app activities and services, send and receive broadcasts, access content providers, or as a last resort, screen scraping and simulated user inputs using the Accessibility API.

This app uses the Accessibility API to provide features that interact with the UI, intercept key presses, take screenshots, read “toast” messages, determine foreground app and capture fingerprint gestures.

This app uses the Device Administrator permission to provide features that check for failed login attempts and engage screen lock.

Ratings and reviews

App is improved over time but as automation flows become more and more complex, there really needs to be a feature that allows for multi-block moves. Moving large swaths of blocks one block at a time is a huge waste of time. Cut/paste is inadequate because it changes block IDs and also not the most efficient use of time either. I just want to drag-select (like selecting multiple files ona desktop) and directly move the blocks like I would on a PC. That's more efficient use of time

This app is amazing! It does exactly as described, only asks for permissions when absolutely necessary, and is very versatile for anything you would need to automate from your device. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the documentation for each block is a little lacking. It's accurate and useful, but doesn't provide much help if you would like additional help/resources for a specific block function.

Great for Bluetooth automation. I use it daily in my car and have been for years. One thing I would ask the dev to look into would be a block to do something similar for wired devices as the bluetooth block does. eg: "usb device connected, yes/no" block and not just referring to a power state block. The broadcast listen block is a bit above my head I suppose.
