About this app

Detact detects activities and enables you to act on them in Tasker!

Automatically start Spotify when driving? Keep your phone locked while on your bike? Count steps while you're walking? You got it! With Detact and Tasker, there are endless possibilities. How about measuring the time you spend sitting in a chair all day?

Detact uses technology already in your device, meaning it doesn't use any valuable battery power! (Specifically, Detact uses the Activity Recognition Transition API.)

Detact may also work with other apps using the Locale API, such as Locale, Llama, Automate, Automagic and others. However, this is not tested extensively.

To support development, Detact contains non-intrusive ads. These can be removed with a small in-app purchase.

Please understand that Detact is still considered to be in beta. There may be bugs.

There is no code in this app. No detectors, no alerts, nothing. You have to install another app for $3.99. This app is NOT free, it only prompts you to install another paid app, and was obviously made in 5 minutes. None of the screenshots show anything in the actual app. This is deceptive.

Love this app, but when I upgraded to pie it keeps giving me false reports, when I stop driving it doesn't detect that I'm walking

Not reliable and sensitive enough to detect changes between activity on my phone. But it may be due to internal android implementation. This app still offer good potential for activity detection.
