It would be great if the Sunrise/Sunset trigger could update itself using the current location. Relying on this trigger becomes rather useless when you change latitude far enough, and your macros depend on it, but the Macrodroid Sunrise setting utterly ignores the fact that your location has...

I am trying to trigger a macro when the user sets an alarm, or dismisses it. I tried with the "Intent received" trigger, using android.intent.action.SET_ALARM but it had no effect. Is there any other way?

Is it possible to selectively import macros, so as not to overwrite all of them? The export function exports/imports all macros at the same time, but I'd like to reinstate/overwrite only one of them, which has "gone bad". * (BTW, why is it that, when I export a macro individually (using...

From at least two apps, I can directly create a shortcut to my macros. I can go into Nova and select gestures> shortcuts>MacroDroid or using Shortcut Manager>In app> Macrdroid>shortcut. Both these ways (and probably others) allow to create an external shortcut directly to one of the macros...

I have huge macros revolving around location and sunrise, but when I travel to a different timezone they are thrown out of whack. Sure these things can be worked around, for example looking up sunrise times through some api etc. But it would be great if MD could simply update its internal...

I have a working shellscript which neatly picks a random sound file from a folder. However, the "play sound" action on MD does not allow to play a file from a given string. Any idea on how to circumvent this? Can playing sound be activated via shellscript? I have root...

As the title says. As I am new to both Macrodroid and scripting in bash in general, no surprise I got stuck. My purpose is to know how many files are in a folder and, if they're too many, delete the oldest ones. To begin with, I am using a shell script that uses "ls -m" followed by folder...

On my device, MD cannot power off the device normally via action, only through the "alternate" power off. I understand, however, that this is the "forced" kind of power off. Since I run this action every day, I feel it may be bad for the device to be continuously forced powered off. I tried...

I noticed one issue with the sunrise/sunset trigger. It seems that, if your phone was off during the trigger (for example at sunrise), then when you turn on the phone later, the action won't be triggered. Is there a workaround to this? A setting to trigger actions when the scheduled event...

It would be great if one of the automated tasks was to bind/mount a folder. Mounting requires a simple script in android, shouldn't be too difficult to implement and the user could trigger it at startup or when they use a certain app. At the moment I use another app to do this, but it's very...
