Hi Im new user
I set a macro to launch an app at 07:42, monday to friday, when screen is off
When comes that hour, does nothing

Samsung Galaxy A02
Android 11
Samsung One UI 3.1
App than I want launch does not require root - It is not at Google Play as is only for internal use (my job)
Phone is not rooted

The constraint Screen Off prevents your macro from running if your screen is NOT off (i.e. when it is ON). It will only run when it is OFF

I know (because it do worked yesterday monday)
But today it was off..... and continued off after that hour

Where find it?
Macrodroid say the macro was activated in time

 

[dsnz]

when you start macrodroid there is a big square with the words "system log" in it
click on this square

LOL, no saw it
(and it is quite visible)

Maybe the constraint Screen off cause it fail when screen locked by PIN/Pasword/fingerprint?

Your log shows that the macro did not invoke on Monday as the constraint failed (Your screen was on presumably) and on Tuesday it did indeed run. There is no issue with the trigger firing.

Launching an app when the screen is off may not work reliably.

Ok then for what I want (no forgot login at work before 8:00am) (done by an app than take a selfie) is better use alarm

Anyway tomorrow I will give other chance, now without constraint
