## Review summary

AutomateIt Pro is praised for its extensive automation functions and ease of use. Long-term users cherish its ability to manage phone settings and automate daily tasks effectively. However, recent app updates and newer Android versions have introduced numerous problems, including permission errors, failure of triggers, especially location and Bluetooth, and a lack of developer support. Users face challenges with inconsistent rule execution and missing backup features. Despite its potential, these issues have led to frustration among loyal users.

### Pros

- Powerful automation capabilities allowing control over phone settings like volume, Bluetooth, screen brightness, and notifications.
- Long-term reliability with numerous users having used the Pro version for years.
- Ability to customize various triggers and actions to simplify daily phone interactions.
- Simpler task creation compared to some competitor apps.
- Highly valued by users for automating routine tasks and acting as a personal assistant.

### Cons

- Recent updates and Android OS changes have caused many automation rules to fail or trigger incorrectly, especially location and Bluetooth-related triggers.
- Permission issues after updates prevent certain functions like NFC scanning, backup/restore, and feedback submission, with 'fix it' buttons not resolving them.
- Lack of developer support and response to bug reports and user queries.
- Inconsistencies and unreliability in executing compounded rules and some specific actions like Bluetooth toggling and sound playback on Bluetooth speakers.
- No or limited backup feature for rules, causing inconvenience when transferring to new devices and forcing reconfiguration.
