Macrodroid Helper updates

[cwallen19803]

Is the Macrodroid Helper apk supposed to update automatically or am I supposed to check the forum on some basis to see if there is a newer version?

I looked on Google Play and there seems to be no helper app to install, so I assume that means that Google Play isn't monitoring that app.

Advice?

“It cannot appear on the Play Store since they no longer allow apps built against older SDKs to be uploaded.

This APK replaces all functionality in the older Settings Helper available on the Play Store (so you may also uninstall). It also supports a new option in the system settings action as this may enable some settings which cannot be changed in the main app to be modified by the helper file.“

Finally, it does not update automatically, you have to log in to the forum to check if there is an update (they are not frequent really).

And you can read all the complete information here

OK. Thanks

The way it works is that when you use a function that requires an updated helper file you will be prompted. So there is typically no need to update to the latest version unless you are prompted to. Of course there is no harm in always having the latest if you prefer.
