Home Screen Tiles

[Josué García]

Hello everyone!

Over the course of the year we want to make your home screen even more impressive, and we need your feedback!

I was wondering what you would like to see as home screen tiles.

Do you prefer dynamic or static tiles, or a mix of both?
Is there a specific action you'd like to have quick access to?

Typically this could be things like
Static tile - last open action block

With new options, e.g.
Dynamic tile - Show variable value.

We'd like... All of them! Every new feature that can be added is welcome.

A static tile for last open macro would be great. Being able to set variables (local variables too) or execute single actions.

Can you make it so that we can have multiple widgets in one macro though?

I would like everything on the tiles, including Macros, Templates and Settings, so the bottom bar would be gone. Also it would be convenient to have one or more tiles that can be configured as desired

Need to be able to get rid of tiles. I don't use them all and this has been requested several times over the years

i would like to have the menu tile as a pinboard style.
you can pin certain macros or you can pin "3 last used tiles", or you can pin your tiles fixed as you want from the pool.

so basic for casual users there should be a preconfigured "pinboard" thats more handy and for experienced users they can pick what they want.

if this is impressive thats decides everyone for themselves.

EDIT: Also sizing the pinned items, in like 3 sizes?

Thanks guys for your comments!
I am taking note of your requests and hopefully in the not so long future we can see it in MacroDroid.

I have multiple macros that are being constantly enabled/disabled so I wish home tiles could work like this for exemple:
Click to enable(and run macro), on clicking change the icon/label (using variables there would be nice) to indicate macro is enabled and the same on second click to disable.
Any customisation there would be greatly appreciated.
I know I can achieve this by using home screen shortcuts/custom widget right now and thats what I do. Also when I mentioned widgets - maybe we could at some point get some new widgets? Maybe something that would for exemple contain few of these home tiles from app?
Lets be real, the one we have with 4 buttons seems very outdated for me and it can't indicate if macro is enabled/disabled and we are talking about automation app. I feel like more and more people start to invest to make their home smart and with some nice looking yet simple widgets people could start using macrodroid more often for that purpose.
Like being able to see some variable's state/values on your phone's home screen in widgets would be cool and even more convinient than having to open macrodroid in foreground.
Even some functionality from drawer as a home screen widget would be great too!
