    Why do these two identical Geofence constraints give different results?

    Hi, I'm having a weird Geofence issue, see video. The settings for the constraint in both macros: Zone name: Thuis + GR (which is where I am) Inside Area Do not set constraint to true if no location is available Location Update Rate: 5 minutes So then, does anyone know why in the first macro...

    What data should I clear when my Geofence triggers fail?

    My Geofence triggers often fail, and the troubleshooting section suggests to clear the Play Services data. However, it doesn't say what data I should clear and where exactly I can find this option. As I don't want to accidentally delete important data, could someone clarify what I need to do?

    Request for location-based constraint (not Geofence)

    I would like a location-based constraint to go along with the location-based trigger. My Geofence constraints often do not work correctly. The troubleshooting section of the app suggests to use the "regular" location trigger in case the Geofence malfunctions. However as far as I can tell there...

    Text with more than two lines in Drawer

    I would really like to have text with more than two lines as a drawer item. Right now, the only way is by using the User Log, with the downside of not being able to remove the "User Log" text. It would be especially great to have it in the form of magic text. You could use it For an important...

    Regularly check if Geofence triggers still work

    I have a macro I use to keep me focussed on doing tasks. It plays a sound every 5 minutes if MacroDroid mode is Tasks AND Geofence location is Home The sound only stops playing if I confirm I've noticed it, as a reminder for me to focus on the task at hand. In cases where Geofence fails to...

    How does MacroDroid interpret empty variables?

    I am trying to make some actions only execute when a variable is empty. Weirdly enough, MacroDroid does not seem to notice it when a variable is not empty. I attached a simple macro that illustrates this. Is there a way to constrain actions like this?

    MacroDroid does not notice keyboard app (Gboard) in foreground

    I would like MacroDroid to read the screen content based on an interval when Gboard is open. I have part of a macro here that illustrates the issue. The trigger has an app foreground constraint and I notice it doesn't fire when I press a typing field and the keyboard opens. I have been...

    Why does "Screen content: Off Screen" trigger fire when it shouldn't?

    The "screen content: off screen" trigger is supposed to fire when certain content is removed from the screen. However in the attached macro, it behaves strangely: The trigger fires when the MD menu appears instead of disappears The blocked word "macro" is present nowhere on the screen before...

    Edit empty macro categories from macro tab

    Currently it does not seem to be possible to edit empty macro categories from the macro tab. This means that, if I want to rename or delete an empty category, I need to navigate to the settings tab and scroll down. This is not a long process but it is one that takes me out of the macro-making...

    Unable to force-rotate Android screensaver while MD is in foreground

    I'm trying to make a macro that auto-rotates my screensaver and I cannot figure out why it won't work if MacroDroid is in the foreground. I have attached my macro. Because there is no constraint for whether the screensaver is on or not, I made a variable for that. Since MD only rotates when...

    What are the "Wake up scheduled" / "Cancelled alarm clock" events in my log?

    A log of a specific macro is filled with events like "Wake up scheduled" and "Cancelled alarm clock." These are logged in intervals of 5 minutes. The macro does have an interval-based trigger but it's every 15 minutes. Could someone explain what this is?

    How to keep unnecessary events out of log? (ANSWERED)

    I have some regular interval macros that are only relevant when I'm at work. Is there a way to make them only show up in the log if that is the case? This would make the log easier to parse. Restricting these macros to a Work mode does not seem to have any effect. The only other thing I can...

    If the user prompt window is blocked, how can I set a custom integer variable?

    I am using a blocking app (Lock Me Out) to make sure I'm not using MacroDroid too much. But that app also blocks the User Prompt window. I want to still be able to enter integer variables though. How can I do this? Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)

    "Applications Closed: All" trigger too sensitive, how to add exceptions?

    I am trying to make a macro that activates my screensaver a few seconds after closing an app. It seems to be too sensitive, activating when I launch an app as well (triggered by the Moto App Launcher closing.) Is there a way to add exceptions so that certain apps don't activate the trigger but...
