macro/shortcut for repetitive tasks

Post by magnemann1 »

Hi, great app!

This would be nice to have:

Ability to create a macro doing repetitive tasks. And then place the macro as a shortcut on my android home screen.

Eg, my 'start'-macro would have been:
1. start RTT app on my local phone
2. start RTT service on my local phone
3. start RTT service for a spesific friend
4. follow the friend on map.


And my 'end'-macro would have been:
1. end RTT service for a spesific friend
2. end RTT service on my local phone
3. quit RTT on my local phone

what do you think of this suggestion? Thanks again. ;)

Hi,
I have checked but implementation takes too much effort at the moment. But I will consider to add a few additional interfaces so you can control the track with some automation app like Tasker or LLama. It's already now possible to start/stop the service or GPS, and to trigger a one-time location update.

This is something I wanted to suggest, but I see it is already implemented (a start, at least)
It would be more efficient to expose as many interfaces for use with Tasker/Automate/etc.
May already use that and it's better to integrate this in their scripts.

Just try to add as many interfaces as possible
