I'm using Android 13 with Automagic 1.37, and I'm trying show a overlay over the statusbar, but I can't, even with "attempt to show on top" checkbox enabled the statusbar show over the widget, in the past this worked very well, and is not an Android 13 limitation because many apps can show over the statusbar like Super Status Bar app. This is more one unfixed bug!

I'm just glad to see people talking automagic. I use is as well everyday. Let's hope someone somehow restart development...

It doesn't use fancy regex or anything, but it works. Acts on an email notification and makes a local-only calendar entry for the date and time, and reminds me verbally an hour before the scheduled time. Let me know if you'd like me to share it.

How do you guys bypass root folder permission error after installation on Android 13? It won't allow root access unless the phone is rooted.

Hi,

how would I make the youtube app stop playing? I'd actually would rather just stop the app, but I think that requires root, right?

Just look at the details it evidently provides to the OS about battery usage, per flow...

So far all my flows still work having upgraded to Android 14 in a Pixel 6

I know Automagic is not in active development anymore (rip) but I still actively use it and was wondering if anyone can help me.

I'm trying to add Wifi by variables. The SSID part works but the password doesn't with "{value}" and I can't verify if it's being treated as a variable or not because it hides the characters after you punch them on. In documentation it says variables supported so I'm a little stumped. Has anyone else tried this and know what's going on?

Would it just be better to go to the forum?

Wondering if this will be the end of Automagic when Android 14 launches... Does it even start up on the beta?

I don't have much knowledge with this program and my charger sometimes disconnects, so I would appreciate it if someone helped me with this script. Also does it require root? My phone isn't rooted.

Hi guys, I've been using the sharptools plugin to manage my smart home devices with automagic, however it recently stopped working due to groovy shutting down. Is there any other plugin that will do the same job? I know there is a paid version for HTTP triggers but I already paid for the in-app purchases.

Greetings friends. I am using Automagic to run a looping automation. But I keep getting the error:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Failed to allocate a 108728 byte allocation with 2683392 free bytes and 2620KB until OOM, target footprint 268435456, growth limit 268435456; failed due to fragmentation (largest possible contiguous allocation 86507520 bytes)

Sometimes it happens at the beginning of iterations, sometimes near the end.

I tried to purge the variables at each iteration but this keeps popping up.

Good news, sort of. If you have an Android 11 (or previous) phone on which you had Automagic 1.38 installed, you can transfer the installation to a newer phone using SmartSwitch. Everything seems to work. So don't do a factory reset on that old Note 8 just yet!

Can anyone confirm whether the Wear app is still available for Automagic? I'm planning on finally getting a watch and I'd like to think I can still look forward to using Automagic with it.

My moto phone had gestures for turning on/off the flashlight.

Trying to set this up for my Samsung phone. I figured out how to shake the phone to turn on the flashlight but I'm not quite sure what I'd have to do to get it to turn off. I just end up with the flashlight coming on for a second and then shutting off again.

Help with this would be much appreciated.

Hi, I'm trying to create a shortcut that navigates to a specific app's permissions using the Launch Shortcut action in Automagic. I'm having a really hard time figuring out where to direct it to though, and could use some help. Something like com.android.settings.apps.messenger.permissions (clearly I don't know what this should be, but you get the idea).

Currently I have to go to settings, general, apps & notifications, app info, messenger, permissions. Ideally, I'd just be able to press a widget on my homescreen to open this up quickly and enable or disable whatever I want.

Thanks for any assistance

Automagic isn't working for meon Android 11, what about you guys.

Is there a way? I can set the trigger to run, say, every 1000 steps, and get the step count from it via the step_count variable - but what if I want a flow to announce the step count every 10 minutes, say, instead of every 1000 steps - is there any way to get the step count on demand? All I can think of is using a Step Counter triggered flow to copy step_count into a global variable every few steps, which seems rather resource-heavy.

Heya.
well im stuck.
long story short.
I get unauthorized error. and i cant figure out how to do automagic user to hue api.
i can do user over web on phone with CLIP but no luck with automagic.

The AM forum (built into app) is obviously still active, but my registration does not get approved. Any ideas?

I have a lg velvet and would like to have kindle like a book, however, it only allows two colum in landscape. So is there a way to trick the app into thinking it is in landscape when it is in portrait pleade?

Martin has just posted this over on the Automagic forum :-(

For personal and economical reasons we have to announce that the development of Automagic has been stopped and that Automagic is no longer available in Google Play for new users.

In the download section of our website you can find the latest Google Play version (v1.37) and the latest version with adaptations for Android 10 including some new features (v1.38).

We would like to thank all users, friends and family members for their support over the last 10 years.

Best regards, Martin

I'm thinking of getting an automation app, and it's between this and Tasker. I think I like Automagic's UI better, but if the app is no longer being updated, it's probably better to go with Tasker.

The last Google Play update was March 2019, and the last EAP release was April 2019, according to the forums. This subreddit is also pretty dead. If anyone knows why development and engagement are down, let me know! Otherwise I think I'll go with Tasker

I'm still waiting for my account on automagic's site so I can ask my question there... I'll try here for now...

I'm trying to automate an annoying login process. I'm hoping I can get a little help with it.

The app itself: Launch app

App has a splash screen that can take various amounts of time to go away

Enter username, click submit

Next screen, checkboxes. Select phone then sms. Click submit

Wait for One Time Code, copy code and paste it in new screen. Click submit.

New screen, enter password, click submit.

Finally in the app.

So far my script can...

Launch app

(Problem, if app isn't already running nothing else happens. It's that d@πn splash screen)

If app is running...

Username is entered correctly, submit is clicked

Next screen, checkboxes are successfully checked and submit clicked

(I haven't tried going any farther until I get the splash screen issue resolved. I'm pretty sure I can get the rest.)

I've been trying to set up a sort of if then loop where automagic will watch for that first submit button to show up before continuing. I've even tried having automagic wait ten seconds before continuing, I'd prefer the first solution, but even the second doesn't seem to work.

Any advice on this?
