Features & Capabilities

AutoLocation is a powerful Tasker plugin that allows you to control your Android device based on your physical location and activities. Using Google's advanced geofencing technology and the Android Fuse Location Provider, it delivers highly accurate location updates with improved battery efficiency compared to traditional methods.

With AutoLocation, you can detect when you're walking, cycling, in a vehicle, or standing still, and trigger Tasker profiles accordingly. It supports setting up to 100 geofences to automate actions when entering or exiting specific geographical areas. Additionally, the Activity Monitor offers confidence-level based matching and ignores irrelevant activities to enhance automation precision. Unlock options include a free 7-day trial and a paid key. Whether you want to start music while jogging, mute your phone at work, or send notifications upon arrival, AutoLocation extends Tasker's capabilities with location-aware smart automation.

User Reviews

Users praise AutoLocation as a Tasker-friendly geolocation tool that does what it promises when it runs, and many appreciate the clear docs and responsive support. However, multiple reviews highlight serious reliability problems: geofence and activity detection are inconsistent, mock location is broken, and the app can crash or require painful permission configurations. Licensing/trial flow and device compatibility issues complicate purchases. Some users also report intrusive notifications and a steep setup. Overall, it has potential for Tasker users but reliability and onboarding need work.

Pros

Excellent Tasker integration; strong usefulness as a Tasker plugin.
Does what it says and works when functioning; reliable when it does run.
Responsive developer with tutorials and helpful support.
Works on older Android versions (e.g., Nougat) indicating broad compatibility.

Cons

Geofence and activity detection are unreliable and inconsistent across devices/updates.
Mock-location feature is not working or is flaky.
Licensing/trial flow and key app compatibility cause lockouts or confusion.
Permissions and runtime errors/crashes (Activity Recognition permission, IllegalStateException).
Setup can be complex and there are annoying prompts/notifications about WiFi scanning.

Recent reviews

Used to work. Now will not register geofence state properly even if location clearly within fence, will just say outside. I was dependent on this app, but it simply failed. Has been happening for months, now I'm done.
