Commands:

Commands are the building blocks which automate/perform a task. A task can be anything ranging from turning on mobile data to more complex ones like managing a calendar etc.

Properties of Command

  1. Name: This specifies the name of the command which can be used to run it from the command menu.

  2. Description: An optional description can be specified which can help in finding the commands.

  3. Requires Password: If a command is a sensitive one, you can enable this option. This will always authenticate the user before performing the command.

  4. Requires Unlock: You can specify if a command will require a device to be unlocked for proper execution. Tasks like turning on mobile data can be done without unlocking the device whereas sending a WhatsApp message to someone will require the device to be unlocked.

Note:

If you are unsure then leave it as checked.

  1. Triggers: Triggers are what fire the actual commands. Read more about them here.

  2. Restrictions: Restrictions are the conditions which restrict the commands from running under specific situations. Read more about them here.
