Swiping down the status bar may interfere with this trigger. This option prevents this interference but may cause issues with the trigger on some devices.

Due to changes to Android, there is a faster method with the use of accessibility services, however it is still possible to avoid accessibility services by ticking the box 'force legacy system'
Accessibility can be granted by following the steps in the popup or by pressing the notification that appears from MacroDroid.
Any other issues, please consult the Troubleshooting section under the left hamburger menu from the MacroDroid home screen.
