What it is
MacroDroid automates tasks on Android devices by combining triggers, actions, and optional constraints. Its product site lists more than 350 built-in triggers, actions, and constraints, and users can browse community-shared macro templates in the built-in store. The Play listing describes use by beginners starting with templates and by power users using variables, scripting, logic, loops, and plugins. MacroDroid supports Tasker and Locale plugins, and its Wear OS companion requires the phone app. The web Remote Control page lets users manage devices and macros and download or restore backups. Scheduled runs and app triggers are supported. The free version costs nothing, includes ads, and allows up to five macros. Pro removes ads and allows unlimited macros with no subscription. MacroDroid says it does not collect or store current location or location history, though location permission supports location and geofence features. Its privacy policy says it logs crash and basic anonymous analytics data. Some features optionally use Android accessibility services; the Play listing says MacroDroid does not collect or log user data through those services. The company directs usage questions and feature requests to its community forum and bug reports to the in-app option.
