The Options and the Selection dialogs are somewhat useful because then it can prompt me to select something, which then updates a variable.

But what if I want the variable to change based on text I actually type in? Say:

Macro activates -> I'm asked to type some words -> I type some words and hit OK -> a variable is updated

We know that, for the Extract text action, we can use Regex and capture the (1) First match, (2) Group 1, (3) Full match. But I wonder if we can capture multiple groups and let's say put the captured texts in an array or concatenate them with comma?

Here is an example, a html snippet showing the tag of a manga, I want to extract the tags (Sci-Fi, Monsters, Comedy, Military, Slice of Life):

<div><!----><a class="a"><!---->Sci-Fi</a><a class="b"><!---->Monsters</a><a class="c"><!---->Comedy</a><a><!---->Military</a><a><!---->Slice of Life</a></div>

A stupid method is to use a loop: extract group 1 > put it in an array > delete it from the raw string > loop again until no any match.

Another method is using Split to array action, but this always assume the tags are separated by the same delimiter, but this is not always the case. So I will need extra text manipulation steps for the splitted segments.

Both methods require extra steps other than the text extraction action and this is CPU consuming. Programming language can usually do this in simple step, e.g., matches = re.findall(pattern, text) in Python, so I wonder if there is more simple, elegant way to do the same in MacroDroid?

Since the last few weeks I am unable to make any payments through Google pay. This is the message which pops up. The only apps with accessibility options turned on are macrodroid and macrodroid ui interaction.

I have tried disabling these before making a payment, but still it doesn't work. I do not want to give up on my macros. Is there any way to resolve this?

So I set up a macro and it's set up so that when I click power button, it taps a certain coordinate on my screen, but the problem is that whenever I use my power button, while it clicks that coordinate it also cancels all the other "hold touches" going on in the app so like if I'm holding a joystick inside a game, it will cancel that and I'll stop moving.

Is there a way to fix this?

Trying to do so that when the device ( Samsung Tab A11) gets powered it will turn on automatically and start an app. I got it so it’s starting the app but not device. I’ve tried screen on and start homescreen. Something I’m missing or doesn’t it work?

I created a macro to update my naukri profile daily. As i often forgot to do or not find time.

I recently resigned from my current job, looking for a new opportunity for a mobile developer. I want to automate the job search and while still keeping the visibility.

Has anyone ever thought about it. I actually created an auto job applying as well. But it didn't work out well..

I’m getting really tired of seeing the same shallow discussions everywhere. 90% of the posts these days are just people trying to build low-effort game automation or finding ways to bypass ToS on various apps.

It’s such a waste of a powerful tool. Whatever happened to the deep, satisfying stuff? I’m talking about actual OS-level hacking, analyzing raw JSON structures, or designing beautiful, bulletproof conditional logic.

Where are all the actual "tinkerers" and power users who love solving complex logic puzzles? Are there any of you left who still enjoy pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with this app?

I want to create a notification if bluetooth disconnects sadly it only shows, 0 after disconnection what is happening..

Hi all,

If you want to automate force dark mode for specific apps on your device, I added a broadcast receiver in my revived app DarQ-Reborn (v2.4).

You can trigger the background service via Tasker or MacroDroid using the action: com.mohitarora.app.darqreborn.ACTION_START_SERVICE

It runs on Android 10-14+ using either Shizuku (no root required) or Root. The project is completely open source, has no ads, and no trackers.

Repo and details here: https://github.com/Arora-Sir/DarQ-Reborn

This is really complicated, I don't understand how do I make a macro that let's me walk forward, then change my camera angle, walk forward, change camera angle, walk forward, change camera angle, walk forward, change camera angle, walk forward, change camera angle and go back to starting point on roblox? I'm trying to afk farm ores in noob incremental

I'm just getting to Macrodroid, and I'm curious of how I would write an automation that gives me my Google Assistant Reuters briefing when an alarm goes off. I remember having this on my old Pixel, and I would like to have a similar automation on Galaxy. Any help is appreciated!

Hello!

Been trying to come up with a calendar widget that has my upcoming alarms with the word Trip in them.

Been using Google ai and have tried endless attempts at this.

I want it to show events within the next 30 days that say Trip on my calendar.

This is what the latest macro looks like and it doesnt do anything. I was able to get it to create events at one point but it would just create an event at the time I tested it.

I am on a samsung galaxy s24.

I dont wanna use gmail in the first place for privacy concerns But SMTP servers seems like headache

And i dont wanna use UI interactions

All what i want to do is to auto forward messages and call history from phone A to phone B

photo is an example it cant turn the phone back on with this in my original macro to shut my phone off at night (you may ask why does the last trigger say screen on) well i use that to make it so the phone can then use the power button to turn off. any other idea i use Android 15.

I am making an application launcher, a user prompt pop up shows up where I can put the name of the app then a selection dialogue will show the apps whose name are similar to thr value I put.

Here the selection dialogue only shows 1 app, even if I put a single letter which many apps has in their name. And when I choose an app, it isnt launching

It sounds so simply yet it's melting my brains since 2 hours. I have "21" stored in a local variable "timehr", which is a string. I want to make macrodroid type 21. This is because the app in which I wanna type, doesn't allow pasting. How do I type out a local variable?

I'm trying to trigger a macro when my phone connects to either of two different Bluetooth devices. The macro works with a single BT connection trigger set to either device, but it won't run when I add them both.

I tried this by adding two triggers to a single macro - one for each device - as my understanding is OR logic is used with multiple triggers. I also tried using a single for the trigger set to one device, then created a duplicate macro that only has the other device as the trigger. Neither macros trigger when this is set up.

Suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Question

In Tasker it is possible to start an action, if the phone detects a read-only NFC tag.

How is this possible wiith Macrodroid?

I don't know how to allow it access all the time. If it helps, I have the developer options activated.

Almost all phones lack good automation except Samsung.

However so many good phones also have notorious background task killers that interfere with MacroDroid.

• Honor (MagicOS) Unusuable with MacroDroid, legit even with ADB, the software wont behave
• Xiaomi (HyperOS) Really aggressive battery saver
• Sony (Stock) Really good stock Android experience, really glitchy too

However, I do not have any experience with any of the other major brands in regards to running MacroDroid, specially in reliability over time, as with Honor it can work okay for one week then week two it decides MacroDroid is enemy of the CCP and shoots it even when you turn off all optimisations, even locking MacroDroid in background wont help...

Does anyone have any experience with these brands in regards to how aggressive their background optimisation is?

• OnePlus (OxygenOS) / OPPO (ColorOS)
• Vivo (OriginOS)
• Motorola (Stock?)

It could be a dumb question , but i'm really out of ideas.

Hey was wondering if i could get a media input randomised each time i plug my phone in thanks

I just downloaded the app and i want to do the following:

When the YouTube app is launched and an add is detected i want the macro to click on the 3 dots on the add and press "block this add".

This would save me a lot of headache without having to buy YouTube premium

When i press block add, the add is automatically skipped and i don't have to watch it anymore regardless if it's a unskipable or not. Sorry for my lack of grammar.

I just need a guide please.
