AndroidTapp Rating : (4.8/5)Url:http://www.androidtapp.com/actions-pro/
Actions automatically or manually executes a series of actions based on certain conditions, such as time, location, or the launch of an application. Conditions and Actions are organized in a unit called a Profile. A Profile has a set of Conditions and Actions. When all the Conditions in a Profile become true, the Actions are executed. When the Conditions are no longer there, the previous settings are restored. For example, you could set up a profile with the following parameters:
Conditions: App launched--PDF Viewer; Time--7 p.m. to 11 p.m; Location--Home
Actions: Display brightness to max, go into silent mode, set screen timeout to 10 minutes, block all incoming calls, display the reminder "Wear your glasses."
So, if you're at home, it's 7 p.m., and you launch the PDF viewer, all these Actions will automatically occur. Once you close the PDF viewer, leave home, or the time is past 11 p.m., all your normal settings will be restored.
You can set up the following Conditions for a Profile: time, location, app launch, incoming or outgoing call, SMS text, airplane mode, Bluetooth, battery level, docking, headset, external storage, power, screen on/off, USB cord connected, Wi-Fi, and events. From there, you can select from 100 Actions to take place, such as application start/stop, lock screen, answer call, end call, block/divert outgoing call, send/block SMS, reminder, almost all Android phone settings, media, record voice/video, take photo, play audio, and dialogs.
There is no limit to the combinations of conditions and actions to create profiles. With Actions, you'll never forget to have your Android device execute a crucial action.

Loaded with Features I liked this. Needs some fine work for aesthetic perfection. Developer's support is timely. Actions has fulfilled all my requirements with promptitude. I feel there is no more need for me to go for any other application, as I have already tried most of such other applications. Only one that can compete with Actions Pro is Tasker, but Tasker is slightly complicated (and expensive too), and hence Actions Pro is definitely preferable. Actions Pro is now available at a reduced price (limited period only) - worth utilising this opportunity. Dr.V.Nagaraj

Not yet very satisfactory. It is tolerably acceptable. Full of admirable features, some would not work to the satisfaction. You do not know at point it force closes. If you are accommodative, it is excellent. If you are a perfectionist you have to wait for a day when the developer makes it flawless.

Good App, Easy to Use Intuitive, but the sample profiles make this a winner!

Superb! Best of its kind. Some bugs here and there, but for the functionality vs possible actions I love it. And I always find a way to get around bugs. Looking forward for future upgrades! Looks promising.

excellent! This is probably the best automation app out there. If they keep improving it I am sure it will be the best by far.

Quality! I used Tasker, but kept having problems with determining location by mobile phone network only (least battery use). This app (Actions) does it very well (Cell Near). It also does "face down" recognition precisely. Good instructions, easy to use. The best for me!

Best product in its class. Actions Pro has loads of features. I use it to maximize the battery life on my Galaxy Nexus. Well worth the money.
