AutoLocation

Was a great app, but here lately it started giving a licensing error. Having Lucky Patcher installed for other reasons and not interacting with Tasker and it's plugins, really shouldn't be blamed on having Lucky Patcher installed. Especially not with having a receipt to prove I did buy it. As I do for all my apps. Sad.

None I repeat none of the paid services work. Only thing that works is the Geo fences. Wasted hours setting up driving and walking profiles. Not a single one works.

I've set up multiple locations for my way home from work. After traveling back and forth I got no indication that the locations where found. Even while having the map open while going through the designated area.

Just charged me and i can't unsubscribe!! Its showing error message when I try. But the developer was very helpful

Was told I had until the 28th to cancel and I was already billed again. Pretty useless without root. Refund me brah

why say fee and make user install to after say it's not free and that you can't even test functionality without paid app. create a limited app or a free trial if your going to say it's free

Comes with an evaluation period with pop up ads :( I don't mind paying for the app but pls give me a chance to use it properly first!

Very inaccurate. I have to constantly stop and start the monitors and most of the time my profiles don't fire. Very disappointing.

Incredibly useful app with great developer support. I use it with Tasker and KWGT to set up home launcher profiles for different locations.

Use it for my Work, school, church, and home conditions

doesn't work (event not firing up) for movement like walking, stay still and many more. In another words, the activity movement doesn't work and maybe has bug even I put the confidence level to the lowest value to the 10 and I put the monitoring interval to at least 15 seconds. I tested walking around like half an hour (like a crazy guy just trying this app to see it works or not ) by displaying the output. Basically, it failed. The only thing that work is Geofencing but this is not important feature.. Many people happy the Geofencing feature work but many of them did not realize that the Geofencing feature is a built in function in tasker. You don't have to use 3rd party app!! They are happy because they did not have time to dig up features in Tasker. This is the second time I'm spending time trying your plugin mostly on the Activity features. I spent many hours to make it work, enable Autolocation in the device manager, enable in accessibility, etc.. disable many hibernation app that may cause the problem. i'm using note 3 with kitkat 4.4.2. You know unhappy customer should have refund.

I decided to give this plugin another shake, but no matter what I do in Tasker, when I try to insert an action from this plugin, I receive an error about "plugin error: missing, disabled, not exported"

It works ... sort of. My initial test setup: - A geofence area of 260 meters around my house. - High accuracy turned on in location settings (Android). - WiFi turned on (helps with location based on visible APs) - AutoLocation Activity and Location monitors turned off (According to the documentation, GeoFence will poll location according to it's own schedule, but that schedule can be modified by turning on Location monitoring.). I wrote a simple tasker script that simply says when the geofence is entered/exited. Well, regardless if the screen is on/off (WiFi sleep policy kicks in when the screen is off), I get constant enter/exit alerts for the geofence. Second phase: I turned on Location monitoring to attempt to fine-tune the polling. This made it worse. If I have the interval set to 15 seconds, I get a geofence exit/enter every 15 seconds. It appears that when the location monitor polls, it causes all active geofences to momentarily exit and then re-enter. I've watched the battery like a hawk, and it introduces significant drain (over and beyond using Tasker's built-in location scenes). I would not recommend this software.

I used to create many profiles and geofences even though it takes much battery. But after some time it stopped working altogether now . I am using Note 4 with latest tasker. NO UPDATES AT ALL. Uninstalling now, regretting I ever paid for this. .

Didn't do it for me. Battery drainage went up considerably. BTW: There is no real free trial. So I could not really try it properly. You have to sign up for a monthly plan, where the first 7 days are not charged.

Location detection can be off by several miles, even with the highest accuracy setting enabled. Probably doesn't help that the developer hasn't updated the app in over a year.. Don't waste your money

I'm fine with a 7 day trial, but this app insists on a 50p/month subscription to begin the trial. Not OK to rely on inertia marketing when the full key is only 85p.

Doesn't work at all. Note 4, latest tasker.

Previously on kitkat and worked great. After upgrading to lollipop the geo fences no longer update properly. Half the time nothing triggers. Need to close autolocation and then go to manage geo fences and watch it until updates.

Has been very unreliable on Marshmallow. I thought it was Doze interfering, since it would lose my proper location after my phone has been sitting idle for a while, but disabling Doze hasn't helped.

No mention of "free" trial subscription that actually costs 0.99 per month. Sorry, can't trust software will turn off beforehand. Plenty of devs do trials correctly. One star because there is no mention of this in the description, not even a link to your explanation page. Had to read a response to a similar complaint to find that. Still shady.

update: obviously worked great on my nexus 5. Working great on my moto x 2014 now too. Still no service at home, but autolocation comes to the rescue!

I'm sitting here in my house with a 100 meter geo fence around it (my entire block) end it is turning on and off all day long. It just flat out does not work with any degree of accuracy. I have it tied in with my home automation and it has been turning the lights off on my all night long because it thinks I keep leaving home. Try before you buy...

The ads and nags to purchase full version.. Also, tasker can do geolocation based tasks on its own without the need of any plugins.

Service keeps stopping. Location is not refreshing right. Most of this can be done from tasker, with no plugin. To bad i payed for the app. Expected more...

Together with AutoRemote and AutoNotification, this is one of a trio of near-essential Tasker plug-ins. AutoLocation extends Tasker's built-in location-finding functions with geofences and activity tracking. Geofences allow the user to define a radius around a fixed point on the map and then detect when a device enters or leaves the area. You can define up to 100 geofences. As a bonus, the technology behind geofence tracking has relatively high accuracy and can be used as an alternative to the much more battery-hungry GPS. Geofence tracking can be augmented by a (battery-hungry) Location Monitor for greater accuracy in rural areas, where geofence technology works less well. Activity tracking will report whether you are walking, running, biking or driving, but requires a battery-hungry monitor to do the tracking. Typically, one wouldn't want to leave this running in the background. Quickly querying for the installed device's current location requires a call to the Location Monitor. When calling it, the programmer must decide whether or not to leave the monitor running. This is problematic, because there is no way to query the status of any of the monitors.

Been getting multiple quirks, such as location monitoring not switching to the right mode, even though my Tasker configuration is perfect. (followed the principles from tutorial Video on YouTube.) Mock Locations just not turning off, screwing up the rest of my tasker actions. (had to make a workaround that toggled mock locations settings, with snippets of code, just to combat it.) Overall, doesn't seem solid enough for complex use. Even though it has plenty of options for it.

Nexus 6p. No updates in over a year.

I recently went to 6.0 and the geofence is very unstable. Map in the app is showing I'm inside but app itself shows outside. I turn geofence off and back on and it resets OK. 5 minutes later same problem again.

Solid app for use use with Tasker.

I tried geofence profile for home and out home but none worked.. Even i kept enabled the gps...

I am not going to use this until I know it works properly with tasker and I know that ads will be removed if I get the paid version. Currently I cannot confirm either.

Definitely recommend

Great plugin for Tasked automation based on location and little power consumption with Geofences. Personally I have some issues with the Activity recognition which seems not to be very accurate. Overall great

Works really well.

This defeats the purpose of using a geofence. I don't know if taskers fault or autolocation, but it's quite frustrating.

But I'm not sure I need it - tasker's built-in location handling works well enough for me. Edit: Just tried out the autolocation activities - this makes the plugin a million times more useful for me upgrade to 5 stars

Works much better than built-in tasker location
