About Automate
Automate lets you build automations on Android by connecting blocks into flowcharts. More than 400 blocks cover actions, conditions, triggers and loops, so it can manage files on local storage, Google Drive and FTP, take photos, record audio and video, send email and SMS, handle calls and change settings such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC based on location, time and other triggers.
Beginners can use predefined options, while experienced users add expressions, variables and functions. It works with Tasker and Locale plug-ins, HTTP requests and webhooks, and a community shares ready-made flows.
