Droid Automation by XDA member wakdev is an app that allows you to perform and automate repetitive actions and tasks on your Android device.

It is very easy to use - create profiles, add tasks and select your triggers. That is all there is to it.

Well, not quite. There is a huge number of automation options available in this app but some of the options are only available with a rooted device and others require the PRO version. But there are still plenty to play around with before deciding whether to upgrade to the PRO version.

Once installed and a profile is created there are two options where you will be making the choices of what you want automate - Tasks & Triggers.

Choose a Trigger:

Choose a Task:

The triggers are self explanatory. When your Android device enters any of the given states this will trigger a task that you have selected.

You can choose from a comprehensive list of tasks, but as previously mentioned you may need to be on a rooted device or have the PRO version for some to work. But the tasks available to non-rooted and non-PRO devices will still mean you have a lot of options available.

Here is a list tasks that are available to devices that aren't rooted and don't have the PRO:

• Networks
  • Enable/Disable Wifi
  • Enable/Disable Bluetooth
  • Enable/Disable Mobile Data
  • Connect to a Bluetooth Device
  • Enable/Disable Wifi Hotspot
• Sound & Media
  • Set Volume (media, ringtone, notifications etc.)
• Display
  • Toggle Brightness Mode
  • Set Brightness
  • Set Display Sleep Timeout
  • Auto-Rotate
  • Enable/Disable Notification Light
• Configuration
  • Change Sound Profile
  • Set Alarm
  • Enable/Disable Car Mode
  • Set Timer
  • Select input Method
• Other
  • Launch Application
  • Launch URL
  • Run Tools
  • Dial Number
  • Make a Phone Call
  • Compose SMS
  • Send SMS
  • Compose Email
  • Open Geolocation
  • Open Address
  • Run Tasker
  • Text to Speech
  • Event Pop-up
  • Expand Notification Bar
  • Uninstall Apps

As you can see for a free version on a non-rooted device you have plenty to play around with and the app is definitely worth playing around with. The interface and setup is a lot easier to use than Tasker - I know it can't do as much as Tasker but these are the sort of tasks a novice Tasker user might try to setup (it was when I first started with Tasker).

The PRO app, which I am a bit unsure as to how to upgrade to - I think it is in the 'about' section under 'Buy me a coffee' offers a whole host of other features but I will leave those for you to discover yourself.
