I’m not aware of any great FOSS/FLOSS Tasker alternatives. There are a few options, but they will be less capable, functional, extensible, user friendly, or modern.
More direct alternatives
- Automation - Gitea repo / F-Droid
- Easer - Github repo / F-Droid
Requires a server to run automations/dcripts
- Home Assistant - Github repo / F-Droid
Requires scripts and may require a server and/or additional add-on apps
- Termux - Github repo / F-Droid
- Termux:API - Github repo / F-Droid
I believe you’re looking for Easer, though not sure how well it matches to your criteria https://github.com/renyuneyun/Easer https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/ryey.easer/
IMHO, no, and I look for one all the time, I hate Tasker, really miss Automagic -_-
I’m curious - why do you hate Tasker? I’ve been using it for years (well before Joao became the dev) and I’ve always found it supremely useful.
The UX is so terrible, I can’t figure out what’s to like about it.
It’s still a useful app, I mean it’s design is complete garbage, but you get utility.
Ah, fair enough. I’ve been using it long enough that I guess the UX doesn’t bother me any more. And the benefits from the ongoing development are still very good IMO.
After many years of using Tasker, I switched to Macrodroid.
Not quite as powerful but does 95% of what Tasker can do and the interface makes waaaay more sense, to me.
Macrodroid doesn’t seem to be opensource.
Yeah, sorry.
What’s wrong with Tasker?
It was buggy when I used it. Then to get rid of it, I had to reset my phone. It’s a mess.
It’s closed source, and it costs money.
I also was searching for an open source alternative. I came across Automate, and fell in love with it. However, it’s not open source but I highly recommend giving it a try.
