FAQ:

1. Q: How are multiple triggers in a macro handled?

A: Triggers are always handled as logical OR. A trigger is a one off instantaneous event that will cause the macro to fire at the point that trigger becomes true, it is not a state or profile. This means in case of multiple triggers any one of the triggers A, B or C will fire the macro. You can combine triggers with constraints to create more complex scenarios.

2. Q: What’s the difference of a constraint attached to a Trigger or an Action compared to a constraint in the Constraints-section of a macro?

A: The constraints in the Constraint-section are applicable to the whole macro and will allow the macro to fire if the constraint conditions are met (or prevent the macro running if conditions fail). Constraints directly linked to a Trigger or Action only apply to that single item. You can add a constraint to an item by tapping it in the edit macro screen.

3. Q: Why are some features listed as root only?

A: Some actions in MacroDroid require your root-access to your device. When your device is not rooted, it’s impossible to invoke the feature on the Android platform (by MacroDroid or any other application). This is not a limitation of MacroDroid, it is a limitation of Android. Different versions of Android allow/restrict different functions, so it might happen that certain functions so work on old Android version, but not on newer versions and vice versa.

Some of the functions that require a rooted device are: switching GPS/Location mode, switching mobile data, switching power saving modes, reboot/shut-down of your device, answer call, adjust notification setting of an app, kill application and switching airplane mode.

4. Q: What can I do if I want to use the root-required MacroDroid features on my non-rooted device?

A: You may either choose to root your device. This is usually a fairly simple process and for most common devices you can find instructions via Google or on forums such as XDA forums. If you do not wish to root your device you may consider looking at the AutoInput plugin via Google Play. This plugin can be invoked from MacroDroid and allows basic UI interaction to be programmed for other apps and the Android UI (for example the settings app).

5. Q: I don’t want the MacroDroid icon always showing in my status bar. What can I do?

A: For devices since Android 8 the way to hide the notification is to long press on the notification and disabled the persistent notification channel. For older devices the recommended approach is to edit the notification bar settings (via the MacroDroid settings) and set the notification priority to the lowest priority value. In most cases this should remove the persistent icon. There is also an option to force hide the icon, however it is STRONGLY recommended that this option is not used as it can frequently cause issues with the running of MacroDroid.
