Cool, but have you thought about using it for Tasker profiles?
Can’t, he’s too busy with Tasker profiles.
He's busy trying to figure out how to set up Tasker profiles using Tasker profiles
anything interesting you use tasker for?
Tasker can do pretty much anything, so most things are based around need and novelty. I have a gps profile with a view/store/retrieve car location for parking lots, a profile to send my location via text, pretyped text messages to my wife, light control for my phone, photo control for my phone, find my phone by audio file and volume, music playlists, a stupid script that takes my feelings over the day on a 1 to 10 scale and based on the avg at the end of the day plays a particular song to meet that mood, a password generator that stores and kinda encrypts via a Caesarian style translation to a txt file, and then decrypts and retrieves the password (I still manualy edit the text to put in titles for the passwords) Most of my tasker scripts are already automated so there isn't as much need for manual control.
It's all good, but it's closed source :(
How does it compare to the built-in Samsung modes and routines?
It's WAY more capable than that.
You can automate anything you can think of.
It can even use root!
That's good to know. Thank you. I'll have a good look
Its sadly properitary :(
