Is there any way to have ALL apps apply dark theme for night, instead some doing so, and some not? At night, I'm constantly flipping color inversion on & off, as i change app. As well as trying other things, like extra dim. Mainly my issue is when an app's colors are white or similar...

On my Android 14 phone, i can tap the Accessibility button (situated at right of navigation bar, below keyboard), which has the "Assistant menu" shortcut, which enables/disables the Assistant menu. I currently use it just for taking screenshots, as it's easier than fumbling around with pressing...

By compressing a folder of files, into a .7z, i can preserve the creation dates, when extracted on pc (extracted using IZArc). I haven't been able to preserve dates of folders yet, only files. But compressing files takes an ETERNITY (eg 10 mins for 100 images, and i won't even bother with...

I have been trying to create a Launch Shortcut action which can run in-app functions in a smart device app (eg Smart Life). What i want to do is have a shortcut on a home screen on android, and when i tap it, it checks if wi-fi is on, and if it isn't then enables wi-fi (& later maybe check if...

Macrodroid is freezing/crashing several times daily now I have tried these things: • Clearing all backups except one • Clearing cache • Restarting phone So I am wondering if I need to investigate the system log. As I see many errors/warnings (such as ~"... enormous ... memory usage ..."). But...

I have (finally) created an action block to easily count the number of characters in a string. Is there any other ways to do this? Just interested. It works fine (for my small needs). I'm unsure if I should clear the array at end. Do local action block variables stay in memory after exiting...

What i ideally want, is to be able to create an alarm for the Samsung Clock app, with ALL details as i want. But as can be seen below, only SOME of the details can be set. These are all the automation apps i have installed on my phone. Has clock actions: No clock actions: Locale X...

Does anyone know how i can display an image? I want to create my own custom statusbar icon. Unable to get it working properly in tasker.

I'm not sure why this doesn't work. Got "Use Helper App" ticked. I can set the values, but the actual ringer state is not changed. When i the change actual ringer state via quick setting, i can read that the value has changed.

What i would like to do is to send an intent/message to eg Clock app, to cancel all alarms that keep repeating forever. As occasionally i "drop everything" & i go to bed, without dismissing all recurring alarms from notification panel. This macro will run every day at eg 1 am. Is this possible...

I've been trying for months to detect & cancel specific heads-up notifications. Haven't had much success. For example, one app posts a HUN, but it's always unexpected & can intercept my taps by accident. Ideally i'd want at least a bit of forewarning (eg by reading notifications in...

It seems (for unknown reasons) flight mode does not work correctly on my phone. It appears to be always disabled (as can still do TXTs & calls when it shows as enabled, or at least very often it does). Most of the time the flight mode quick setting is 1/2 blue (dimmer blue). What i would like...

I joined macrodroidforum.com/wiki, and tried to post a discussion (below), but it couldn't add.

Does anyone know how i can detect when colour inversion has been enable/disabled? Or where i can read it's current status?

Due to at times macrodroid being very slow (eg takes 20s to load macros tab), i am wanting to develop a regular routine which can speed it up to a more reasonable speed. What presently i'm trying are the following - restart macrodroid (via App info .. Force stop; cannot, as macrodroid doesn't...

Anyone else experience this? I'm unable to see what is causing it, so i'm calling it "random". I'm having to use "babysitting" code to deal with it. Eg if macro is about to exit, i show an If Confirm, so that i can ignore it, unless i actually DID cancel macro (in which case i select "Yes" &...

I would like to open an app within macrodroid, just like when i tap the app icon in apps drawer, or on home screen. That is, when i use Launch Application, or Launch Shortcut, the app (notes app) is relaunched, and i lose any edits i have done. But when i tap the app drawer icon, the app comes...

My If clause i want is: If log_item = ret(urn(ed)*)*( )*f(rom)*( )*(town|abroad) But that doesn't work (ticked regex) Some tests i've done: v ret*f*town no regex x ret*f*(town) no regex v ret*f*(town) regex v ret*f*(to(w)n) regex (nested ()s) Currently using: If...

I have a large macro. When editing it's always very slow & jerky. It takes about 10 seconds to load. When keyboard goes away, i see where keyboard was for a second or so, before it is "painted". And if a macro say invokes a dialog while editing this large macro, it is noticeably slow to run. I...
