    TouchTask examples?

    no, don't see such permission listed as required to run the flow in Automate. The permission required is "access screen content and observe your actions", which opens "Accessibility" section, under which both TouchTask and Automate are granted the permission.

    Better Screenshot taking action

    Current action: has no control over the screenshot name or where its saved. Has no way to get this data to use in the macro later. displays screenshot-taking system UI, which can interfere with and break the script if it need to use UI interactions A better alternative: being able to specify...

    Any way to add OCR/image recognition?

    Tested the OCR, and it works extremely well - it read all the texts on the page, even located on uneven gradients, of various font sizes, various fonts, serif fonts with thin edges, text that is so small that I can barely even read it myself, etc. And extremely fast, completes nearly instantly...

    TouchTask examples?

    That's false. Another app I tested, Automate, does not display same message to take a screenshot. I'll keep the above solution in mind, but most likely won't need it if I drop TouchTask and use Automate instead.

    Any way to take a screenshot and save it to a specific path?

    I can confirm that this is entirely false. Automate app can take a screenshot without displaying any system interface. It can also just specify where its saved, so don't have to bother with looking for last screenshot wherever default system app decides to put it and under what name. So turns...

    Any way to take a screenshot and save it to a specific path?

    no that's not acceptable, need it saved in a local path I want to pass the image into TouchTask plugin OCR action, and it needs a file path to do so.

    TouchTask examples?

    I tried using TouchTask Screen Capture action, and it doesn't work - any time the action is activated, I get a message dialogue covering half a screen with "Start recording or casting with TouchTask?" with options "Cancel" and "Start now" This happens every single time, and doesn't matter what I...

    Any way to take a screenshot and save it to a specific path?

    Default MacroDriod "Take Screenshot" action is kinda useless, as it: does not have any path config. You don't know the name or the path of the created screenshot, can't change the save path, and as a result you can't actually use the created screenshot anywhere, as you have no way of...

    System Setting Change trigger does not work with foreground app name

    To do that I already need a trigger which reacts to foreground app change, which is the whole point

    System Setting Change trigger does not work with foreground app name

    Well its in the list of what I can select for this trigger. How do I know then what from that list will work and what won't work? Basically I wanted to fire a trigger when foreground app changes, how do I do it then without making it just a timer that checks {fg_app_name}

    Any way to add OCR/image recognition?

    Google ML kit is for the devs, not users. No idea how to use any of that. so not any time soon then Has no one ever used any third-party OCR engines / apps with MacroDroid? Since it supports sending/receiving Intents, it should be able to communicate with such apps.

    System Setting Change trigger does not work with foreground app name

    Phone is Samsung Galaxy S10e MacroDroid version is whatever the latest on Playstore If I set System Setting Change trigger to monitor the foreground app name changes via {fg_app_name}, the trigger never fires. Not even once. If I read the {fg_app_name} variable myself, its always returned...

    Any way to add OCR/image recognition?

    What I learned is that none of the methods in the Click action work on game apps. So can't read text, can't search for elements, etc. Any way to add OCR/image recognition capabilities instead? Like taking a screenshot, sending it to some third-party app which will scan it, then return the data...

    MacroDroid doesn't launch anymore (solved)

    I couldn't launch MacroDroid at all. So this means nothing, as it just instantly closed before I saw any UI. So couldn't check logs or disable/enable anything.

    Didn't have online backups enabled, but managed to restore from a local backup, thankfully those are automatic. Copied all backup files from install directory, then went into Settings->Apps->MacroDroid, wiped cache and data, then copied backup files back and restored using MacroDroid menu...

    MacroDroid doesn't launch anymore (solved)

    Device: Samsung Galaxy S10e MacroDroid was the latest version from Google Store One day it stopped launching entirely. When I attempt to launch the app, it closes immediately, I don't even see its home screen. Periodically phone also revokes its permissions, and then it starts spamming...

    While loop and Wait Until Trigger interaction conflict

    I tried this modified version, but now it just always launches Settings after you switch to the app and 20 seconds had passed - clicks don't seem to reset the timer.

    While loop and Wait Until Trigger interaction conflict

    AutoInput UI Action should definitely not be in the global triggers - I already tried it, and a click event fires and gets logged on every single click regardless of where its made, which means even if you never open the app the macro was designed for, it will still continue tracking clicks...

    While loop and Wait Until Trigger interaction conflict

    I am trying to do the following: after app X is active, start a timer, and listen to any clicks if any clicks are detected, reset the timer if the timer exceeds a set value (no clicks were detected during this time), lets say 20 seconds, bring up the Settings menu I tried to set it up the...
