Automation
Automation is an Android app to automate certain things on your device. Open the Play Store entry to display more information.
What are the differences?
- Google Play: If you're above Android 9 location based rules don't work anymore. Also phone-related rules (calls or send sms) don't work here - thank Google for that.
- F-Droid: The Activity Detection feature isn't included as it relies on the Play Services. Everything else works.
- APK version: No limitations in functionality whatsoever. It won't update to newer version automatically, but in settings you can activate an automatic check for new versions.

No changelog for next version, yet.
Long-term goals
In addition I have these things on the radar:
- More modern GUI
- Reorganize triggers and actions. Due to the increase of capabilities the overview of possibilities has suffered a bit.
