I love this app & have been using it for a number of years now across multiple phones. It's a bit difficult to learn how to do some things, and it takes me a lot of trial & error to get programs working how I want them to, but if you have any node based workflow and coding experience, it's not too difficult to learn. I have flows that turn on a 30 minute sleep timer when I play Spotify or YouTube (when I'm home & my phone is charging), another that makes my phone scream if I throw it, etc.

Exceptional app! Can't recommend it enough. It's ridiculous that I can't set an hourly alarm on Android, and that all available apps with that functionality require payment or subscription, and that all available apps for programming macros require payment to use for more than a few days. This app provides functionality that should be available in the first place and does it FOR FREE! LlamaLab, I don't know you but I would die for you. I would kill for you. I'll actually tell my friends ♥️🦙♥️

Automate is an extremely flexible automation tool, but it takes a while to learn. If you can follow a flowchart, you should be able to use this app. I moved to Automate when my previous automation app wasn't updated for Android 10. The old tool had canned tasks, which often had some unneeded tasks & quirks. With Automate, I can add in exactly the steps I need. That's more work initially, but the result is a task that does only what I need. I did have to learn to insert some delays & conditions.

Of all the automation apps out there Automate is the only one which works as I script. Great price, easy to use interface (recently updated), useful help files, and plenty of example flows in the Community. I've been using it for a few years now and it's never let me down, I'd suggest it to anyone. I never leave work without a text to my wife, my car setup is exactly what I need, when I need it, and when significant issues arise at work I get meaningful notifications.

A couple of the criteria that I use for this kind of apps (i.e., automating tasks) are: - when using location as Event, I want my phone to register only the Entrance and the Exit from that place, instead of constantly checking its position. Automate does that. - the battery consumption. Because of the above point is accomplished, the battery usage is minimal in Automate. Yesterday I had it run all day, entering and exiting the set location several times, and Automate doesn't even show up in the 'battery usage' list. As for the options available, there are plenty of them. I definitely recommend you trying Automate. Spend first a couple of minutes reading the Documentation, this will make it easier for you to understand how it works.

I have used Automate for just basic stuff and it has worked great! I wanted something to help me do daily goals and Automate has made that so much easier. With goals in my Dialog boxes I can have them repeatedly pop up over anything on my phone until I actually think about what I put in them! (No easy cancel button or swipe away) I think there might be a 30-block limit for using it for free? However, for basic stuff like this, 30 blocks are plenty.
