Comments on AutomateIt - Device Automation for Android

★★★★★ synchronicityization · Oct 9, 2021
Finally! An automation app that actually works, well done 👍🏻
★★★★☆ Cheng Jung Huang · Jan 10, 2025
I would like to switch Wi-Fi on/off, what app should install first?
★★★★☆ La Da · Oct 13, 2022
1. SMS content trimmed 2. Will receive [Keyword-Last-SMS-Content] if two SMS arriving in a short period
★★★★★ Robert Morton · Mar 29, 2022
Completely excellent app. There address so many functions within a cell phone that can be automated. If you can conceive a function for your phone to perform, then you can probably program your phone to do it!! Enjoy.
★★☆☆☆ Jeremy Jean · Jan 4, 2025
This app used to work on my OnePlus 10 Pro to automate turning the phone's Wi-Fi radio on and off when entering and leaving home. The latest app update in Dec. 2024 for Automate It broke a few things and stopped it from being able to back up and restore rules. Now I just see an error message, "Permission Not Granted", when I try to back up my rules.
★★☆☆☆ Scott Merrill · Oct 29, 2024
Previous review was 5 star. Recently, all my Bluetooth trigger rules were deleted by the app, and I can no longer add Bluetooth rules.
★★☆☆☆ Carson N. Garety · Apr 7, 2025
This app has been amazing for years!! Unfortunately, a rule I've had in place for ages stopped working - it used to turn my Bluetooth off if I disconnected a device. Please help! I've tried every setting and permission I can think of, and nothing has worked.
