About Tasker

User reviews of Tasker

Dronak

Arguably the best app for automating your Android device. It can take a little time to get used to how Tasker works and to get your recipes set up the way you want to, but it's an amazingly powerful app and you can control almost anything on your device with it. When I finally bought Tasker, I was able to replace 3 or 4 other apps I was using to automate things, saving storage space and reducing battery drain at the same time. Possibly the best few dollars I ever spent on an app.

LE TRUC indispensable pour automatiser son AndroPhone... si il se passe ça, alors, ça fait ça!

There needs to be a way to kill services (kill app doesn't do it). Also, there should be an OPTION to allow the proximity sensor to function while screen is off. Let the user decide!

This app is a must have for anyone who like to tinker with their phone. Allows you controls every aspect of your phone, enabling automation in most cases. Well worth the money (6.50 at the time) RAZR

Great program for the power user, just wish 'kill app' worked, also problems with 'media control' working the way it should. Other than that, Awesome!

Superb automation app Absolutely love this app. Although it is difficult initially to get into, it shouldn't discourage you. There are plenty of profiles on the Internet and people love to share them and YouTube is littered with videos that will assist you. A must app if you want to automate Android and unleash it's full potential. With root it is even better.

Bit of a learning curve, but worth it.

The Definitive Automation App Create mini "programs" that: enter passwords and form data on the fly; float a music widget whenever you use Maps; start your VPN when you connect to a public network; change your phone's settings when you get home; and countless others. The learning curve is by far the steepest on the Play Store - it's necessary to read and study quite a bit before you can use it at all. If you're into that, the rewards can be awesome.
