Comments on MacroDroid - Device Automation for Android

★★★★★ Abdulla Redha · Sep 19, 2026
Easy to use saves a lot of time. I use it to organize medicine drink water. Checking Libeling patient glucose it's Free watch advertisements we are allowed only upto 5 macros
★★★★★ Ben M · Oct 10, 2026
I like this application since I can replicate most of my apple shortcuts and notifications on saving battery 🔋 will increase longevity of my device. I can't wait to replicate most of my shortcuts and automations.
★★★★★ Bin - Tamim · Sep 22, 2026
The Ultimate Android Automation Powerhouse! ★★★★★ If you love tweaking your phone and saving time, Macro Droid is an absolute masterpiece. It strikes the perfect balance between power and usability—far more intuitive than Tasker, yet insanely capable.
★★★★★ Warwick Duncan · Oct 1, 2026
Used it to create Sound Profiles for Work and Home, but is much more capable than that!
★☆☆☆☆ Ron Bemis · Sep 30, 2026
I installed this at the recommendation of Gemini in order to give it a try sometime. I didn't realize the clock was running. Now it's disabled, my free time is over, and I didn't even get the chance to try it. Oh well, easy come easy go. Uninstalling.
★☆☆☆☆ V TV · Oct 3, 2026
Good apps but I do not support watch ads to extend free trial. I've bought it. I just don't support this greedy behavior. So stop crying please.
★☆☆☆☆ Austin Jordison · Oct 1, 2026
The description of the free tier is misleading. Its not only ads while using the app, making the macros and such, you have to watch an ad for every 3 days of use. It doesn't make this clear before the initial set of free days runs out either. When I open the app it defaults to the macro screen which doesn't mention the lack of days anywhere, so I've been trying to figure out why neither of the two I made have triggered in several days before clicking back to home and finally seeing the alert

Description by ArloSoft Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Turn your Android device into a smart assistant that works for you. MacroDroid is the easiest way to automate almost anything on your phone or tablet — no coding required, just a few taps.

What can you automate?

✦ Auto-reject calls when you're in a meeting (synced with your calendar)
✦ Read incoming messages aloud while driving and reply hands-free
✦ Switch on Bluetooth and start your music the moment you enter the car
✦ Turn on Wi-Fi automatically when you arrive home
✦ Save battery by dimming the screen and disabling radios at night
✦ Create custom sound and notification profiles for work, sleep, or the gym
✦ Get reminded about tasks with timers, stopwatches and location alerts
✦ Keep your storage tidy by automating file copy, move and delete tasks

These are just a handful of ideas — the possibilities are virtually endless.

How it works — 3 simple steps

1. Pick a Trigger
Choose what kicks off your macro. MacroDroid offers over 120 triggers, including location (GPS, cell towers, geofences), device status (battery, app launches, data usage), sensors (shake, light, proximity, fold angle), and connectivity (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, notifications, webhooks). You can also launch macros manually with a home screen shortcut or the customisable MacroDroid sidebar.

2. Choose your Actions
Decide what happens next. Pick from over 200 actions: connect to devices, adjust volume, speak text aloud, send messages, control media, take screenshots, dim the screen, run Tasker plugins, and much more. Chain multiple actions together to build powerful workflows.

3. Add Constraints (optional)
Fine-tune when your macros run. With over 80 constraints, you can limit a macro to certain days, times, locations, or device states — for example, only connecting to office Wi-Fi during working hours.

Designed for everyone

New to automation? Get started in seconds with the built-in Template store — browse hundreds of ready-made macros shared by the community, install one with a single tap, and tweak it to fit your needs. The in-app help and active user forum mean you're never stuck for long.

Power user? Dive deeper with user-defined variables, dictionaries and arrays, intents, scripting, IF / THEN / ELSE logic, AND/OR conditions, loops and Tasker/Locale plugin support.

Free vs Pro

The free version is ad-supported and lets you create up to 5 macros. Upgrade to Pro with a small one-time payment to remove all ads and unlock unlimited macros — no subscriptions, ever.

Wear OS Companion

MacroDroid includes a Wear OS companion app for triggering and interacting with your macros from your wrist, including watch face complications. The phone app is required.

Accessibility Services

Some features (such as automating UI interactions) use Android's accessibility services. This is entirely optional and at your discretion. MacroDroid never collects or logs any user data through accessibility services.

Support & Community

Join thousands of users in our active community forum at http://www.macrodroidforum.com — the best place for usage questions, feature requests and macro-sharing inspiration. To report a bug, use the in-app "Report a bug" option in the Troubleshooting section.

---

Stop doing the same things over and over. Let MacroDroid do them for you.
