Task Bomb is an automation app (sometimes called "task scheduler", "job scheduler", "batch processor", etc.) that allows you to schedule apps and actions to automatically run. It's similar in function to the cron command on Linux and somewhat like an alarm clock (you can set alarms and snooze actions). TaskBomb aims to be small and simple, and leverage the power of the apps you have on your phone.
One of Task Bomb's greatest assets is its unique and flexible scheduling system that allows you to create modular, reusable schedules that can be run at any time, attached to alarms, or added to other schedules.
With home automation as a growing application of Android, this app could just be what you need to serve as a master controller for the bits and pieces you want to automate.
You can schedule things ranging from very simple:
"Play this song at 8:00 AM on weekdays."
to more complex:
"Run some scripts of mine before bed. 7 hours later start playing my favorite streaming radio station, or my second favorite one if that’s not available, or a local playlist if neither are available. Increase the volume gradually over 3 minutes. If I’m still not up after 10 minutes, switch to a playlist of sad songs."
Put another way, Task Bomb is basically an Android job scheduler. Job scheduling is sometimes synonymous with batch scheduling, although batch schedulers typically use the command line.

Works Perfectly! Was looking for a app to shutdown my tab at a specific time when listening to late night radio coast to coast am. Very easy to set up, I set task bomb to launch my shutdown app, :-) works great! and the screen does not have to be on for the task to work.

Should come installed on all droids I have 5 email accounts for work, school & personal. I need them to sync contacts, calendars and mail. This is in addition to other data syncing apps all of which synced all day long using data and killing my battery. Found this app and now I sync every 3 hrs. A bit complicated to set up. Found a video on YouTube which helped a lot. Google "how to setup task bomb"
