This is a bit of an odd feature request, but can we please have a trigger for "Restore from cloud backup"?
I manage about 50+ macros across a list of devices in my household (about 7 devices). The way I achieve this is using the same MacroDroid account across the devices. I determine the device model and/or device serial and store them as variables. The same macro could apply to one or multiple devices, depending on what their model/serial is, as well as other conditions of course.
Some macros are common across all devices, some are unique to specific devices. The nice thing is that I can manage all of the macros in one place. I simply make a change to one or more macros, do a cloud backup in MacroDroid and then do a restore on the devices. Each time I do a restore, I need to then run a "master" macro, which does 2 things:
- Sets the device model and serial as variables.
- Once this is set, Enable/Disable certain macros based on what the device model or serial is.
It's a very simple and efficient approach, as restoring from cloud backup and running the master macro takes seconds and I can get the device configured super quickly. The annoying thing is that I have to manually run the master macro. Ideally, if the device can just automatically run the master macro whenever a restore from backup operation has occurred, then this will be even better.
