First Trigger to Fire

[Alan Eaton]

Can we, please, have a trigger that is gauranteed to be the first trigger to fire after Macrodroid starts? I ask because I have some initialisation stuff that needs to be done before anything else.

I suggest that the first trigger be Macrodroid Initialised.
At present other triggers may fire first (and which fires is context dependent).

Example triggers that I have noticed firing before Macrodroid Initialised:

Device Boot
Data Available
Sunrise
Stopwatch

From what I've seen I'm pretty sure the Macro Enabled trigger triggers first.

I'll check it out. I did not think to try it because the last time I used it it caused serious problems.

Macro Enabled is not quite right for my needs since it also fires when the macro is edited. It is good enough for now.

A specialised trigger will be much better.

Add a constraint for it not to run when MacroDroid is in the foreground

Excellent!

Now, why did I not think of that? :/

That's actually.. a genius idea ! I never thought of that too.
