Automate Your Android Smartphone With AutomateIt Pro

Automate Your Android Smartphone With AutomateIt Pro

No doubt you have enough to remember as you go through your day, whether its remembering to send off that email, fix that leaking tap or setting up that appointment. With all of this running through your head, wouldn’t it be great if your smartphone displayed a little bit of independence and managed itself?

Owners of Motorola devices have enjoyed using SmartActions for a while now, which allow you to create rules that will automate certain actions on your phone. From automatically switching to Drive Mode when you’re connected to your car’s bluetooth to holding calls when you’re in meetings, having your phone do these things automatically takes a load off your mind.

If you don’t own a Motorola smartphone, AutomateIt Pro aims to fill the gap in other Android devices and help simplify your already very complex life.

AutomateIt Pro comes with a total of 13 pre-configured rules to get you started, which include:
