MacroDroid

Automate your Android device with powerful, easy-to-use macros

Visit MacroDroid

MacroDroid is an Android automation app for building macros from triggers, actions, and constraints without programming knowledge. It addresses everyday device tasks such as file management, location-based responses, sound profile switching, and screen control, letting users assemble workflows from selectable components.

The app provides over 350 built-in triggers, actions, and constraints, along with custom user interfaces that can run full screen or as overlays. Capabilities include copying, moving, and deleting files; triggering actions on arrival at or leaving locations; sending automatic SMS or email replies; switching silent, vibrate, and ring modes; and adjusting brightness, timeout, and rotation. A community template store offers pre-made macros, and the product links to a forum, wiki documentation, and tutorial videos.

MacroDroid is aimed at Android users who want to automate device tasks through a visual editor. It is available on Android, with a template store and community resources for sharing and learning macros.
