Hi!
It will be great if Macrodroid has differents app lists where you can use for any macro. For example, a macro that increase the volume for music apps. You can set the trigger for the music app list instead select one by one for any macro or condition later.
I woul like appreciate you consider it.
Best regards.

How would you recognize a 'music app'?

Otherwise, unless you add or modify your music apps list very often, you could write a macro firing when one of these app is launched: one unique trigger firing when one app among a list of selected apps is launched.

No, it wouldn't an automatic list, I'm talking about manual app lists for frequent use.

I would found useful for re-use the list in other macros or even in the same macro. You could use it for the trigger and later for the actions.

Code:
If start app1 or app2 or app3 then

Using lists:
Code:
if Start any from [list1] then...

If you have to add or remove an application, you just have to modify the list instead of all the appearances of them in each of the macros.

I would suggest, depending on what you have to do, to have a unique macro with a trigger gathering all the concerned apps.

Yes, I'm using a unique macro for those apps but is very common that I re-check conditions again in the action section.

I guess that if you check which app is running is because you have specific actions to do depending on the app...

Ok. I understand.
Anyway you could simplify your macro this way:
T1 and T2: ok
A: wait 2 seconds → not sure it's really useful 🤔
A: IF not in foreground (...) OR TRIGGER screen on
A: Brightness + ...
A: END IF
Thanks! 😊
