1) thanks for this program. it helped me a lot in last 3 months )

2) there is a problem with old file formats. i mean if old file was opened in ABM before update, you can t open ABP till you move script in other directory. it would be nice if after update bot cleared it s macro list if it were in old format

3) second - disappeared control buttons. it took some time for me to find "allow pop up windows" in applet options. it was always "on" in previous versions.

everything else is ok and kicking. thx again for your work.
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
I'm sorry but .abm file extension is completely deprecated and not recommended. They are not compatible between different versions. CSV instead should give you more future proof stability. If you still having issues please remove the "Android Bot Maker" directory under sdcard, clear app's data and try again ?
[Android Apps and Games] Juraviel:
Hey I have this one more problem perhaps you can tell me about a possible fix. The bot just stops running after a certain time, half an hour i suppose. I tried unchecking cycling count, or puting a high number but no matter what I do it stops after a while.

I used to be able to circumvent this problem because there was a lag between me pushing the stop button and the bot actually stopping, so I just made it so that after every reiteration the bot would restart itself by 1) entering bot app 2) minimizing 3) clicking start, and it would work. But because you fixed it it now doesn't work but that old problem remained.

It's funny the screen stays woken up it doesnt power off even though the bot cease to execute commands.

If I could run two scripts at once that would work but there is no such feature.

I'm running latest kitkat on rooted nexus 7 2012 (lean kernel).

PS

Btw there's like a solid second between every step of the script (without any sleep time added by me), wouldn't there be a way to shorten this up?? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
I'll look further into it, thanks for testing it ?

nvm fixed it..
[Android Apps and Games] anvilgard:
great idea!
[Android Apps and Games] MrAsh85:
App is Great.

I am using it only for a single cycle to swap 3G between sim cards on my GT-i9192 and just have a widget for each sim.

It would be nice if we were able to change text or icon on the widgets.

I have found that if I make 20+ step macros I am unable to edit previous steps without crashing, but if I delete the step I can add the edited value fine.
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
That's nice, I thought nobody ever used widgets feature haha, I will try to improve it soon.

About that bug, could you tell me how can I replicate it here?

Enviado desde mi GT-I9505 mediante Tapatalk
[Android Apps and Games] MrAsh85:
It is not a perfect fix for the phone but it works as intended, hopefully there will be better 3G swapping on a new update someday.

I have been testing for the bug a bit more and it looks like it is only does it when editing steps 12 and over which is probably why I only found it when I was making longer macros.

I have been able to get it to fail with only 12 step macro if I try to edit step 12, and have tried creating new files and once I try editing above 12 it happens again.
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
3.6 update changelog:

- Finally added Tasker Plugin integration (synchronous tasks)

- Fixed layout bugs, soft keyboard bugs, and more

- Fixed redraw and change loss after orientation changed

- Widgets should work ok now

To review:

- Swipe actions on non kitkat devices​

Please keep posting bugs or weird situations you found here, I will still trying to fix them all ;)

EDIT: I moved thread to an XDA DevDB project so you can report bugs in the "Bug report" section above
[Android Apps and Games] knightzero07:
nice app. been looking for easier auto text input. There's just one problem though. the script never stop even though I pressed the stop button and also enabled & set the cycle to 1. any idea why this is happening?
[Android Apps and Games] Tinasintunes:
This looks great!! I want to a bot!

But I can't think of anything I need it for. :(

The only repetitive thing I do is wash the dishes...... :(
[Android Apps and Games] b00b:
A good idea, but

does work on my phone

(Xperia SP, running stock Android 4.3).

- installs okay,

- add 2 actions,

- one to tap somewhere on the screen (using X and Y coordinates)

- the other a sleep of 2 secs

- then press home key to go test it and on clicking on the play -

promptly reboots my phone each and everytime

.

Anyone knows why??

p.s.

----

does anyone know of any app that

will record or capture screen taps or button presses

within an app and then

lets you automate the captured screen taps or button presses

?
[Android Apps and Games] Whiteman2014:
Got the same problem. You have to deactivate the pointer location. That helped me.

My bot maker hangs if i click open. Wah to do?

[Android Apps and Games] Xpandurmind:
Awesome app! I've used since i had my Galaxy S3, and have loved it; however, since updating to the Galaxy s5 I have noticed some differences mostly good (like the new drag and drop for instance) but I have noticed my new GS5 gets very hot after only running a script for a short period of time. I was wondering if there was a fix for this issue being as how there was never an issue with the GS3 running similar scripts with half the length? Thank you! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Are you rooted? phone?

Thanks for reporting it, temporary you can turn power saving mode on until I find a solution for this, I never looked at how much cpu load it takes, it must be using all cores.

Yes, my phone is rootet and XFramework with XPosed is installed. I just blocked the Internet and Identification for the Bot maker
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
No Idea then, there must be something wrong with your setup, I tested it on many phones and didn't have such issue. You can check what does logcat say about it.

[Android Apps and Games] Thaevil0ne:
This app is beast and it works like a charm, really made my day.

Please note on my tablet it asked for root permission only after I did exit the app.

Also when adding multiple taps they came up in reverse order on the list.

Just swipe then to the correct position, not sure our these are know bugs so I thought I should post.

Edit: the only thing missing is to add comments to a action.

That would help the human brain from thinking to much, 5 stars anyways.

Kind regards, Stefan.
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Thanks for your support and reporting, I hope last update fits your needs, I'll fix the reverse order soon [emoji6]
[Android Apps and Games] Serj.a:
Very good bot programm.

Can you add some features?

It will be good to see where bot taping while work.

enable/disable play/stop buttons (i hant hide them and dont know how to close programm without killing)

And can you make popup messages (like "Runing bot", ets) for all actions?

Tank you for usefull app :good::good::good:
[Android Apps and Games] bangity:
Thanks for the awesome app. Is there a way to multi-touch? Like zooming in and out of a game?
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Yeah, maybe I can show a preview of every action on screen while tapping it from the list.

About showing a popup for every action would be too much spam on screen I think. Maybe adding an user switch to do it or not will solve this.

It's not possible at this moment but I'll see what I can do about it

Thanks both of you [emoji6]
[Android Apps and Games] Serj.a:
That will be good.

And maybe come information is bot runing.

Also, Is there any way to close app? Or only in taskmanaager?
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
If your sleep actions are longer than other action times you won't have problems just pressing the stop button, look at the attached image in op
[Android Apps and Games] Serj.a:
When I use "show coordinates" option, and then start bot, this function is switching off.

Can you make posibility to make "show coordinates" function working during bot's runing? It can help to debug script.

And if possible to make some debuggin functions, like step by ster script run.

Need Help

I been using android bot maker for a while now and I love it! And I love the updates its rlly fixed alot of the bugs so far but I just resently tried somthing new and it isn't working very well. What I did was make a bot that can unlock my screen get in a game and do what I need to do then lock the screen again every hour. The bot taps work perfectly only problem is the sleep command while the screen is locked and it does count the seconds. What should I do to make the bot open, do its business, then lock and wait an hour then repeat?
[Android Apps and Games] Dx55:
Thanks a lot for this app. That is what was needed. But i have the same problem as lilchuy have.

key,26,false,No description (power key)

sleep,950000,No description

key,26,false,No description

I tried to make sleep smaller and it works (10-15 seconds between power keys). What must i do to make bot working with 950 sec sleep? :)
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
If you try to sleep 950 seconds the bot will be killed before it reach that time, I could manage to improve it using alarms api to fix this in such high values but I'm short of time to do it nowadays

Hello! Can you add any "beep" action ?

Crashing in Genymotion VM

Hi, I'm using the latest play store version of Android Bot Maker in a Genymotion VM for Android 4.3.

Every time the first tap-action in a script fires (sleep seems to work), the VM crashes and restarts.

I don't get a log recorded if I'm running aLogrec when this happens.

Any way I can work around this, or get a log?
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Try exporting the shell script and running it from the shell to see what happens, it could be due to the api changes from 4.3 to 4.4.

If possible try updating your vm to kitkat
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
I don't see any practical reason to implement it yet
[Android Apps and Games] RalphTWaP:
I exported the script and ran it using adb shell sh; the VM reboots every time it encounters a second sleep command (sleep, tap, sleep... boom!)

Unfortunately the Genymotion 4.4 VM is unstable for me because of arm translation issues.

Any other suggestions are welcome :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Weird... did you try with the coordinates on? If so, try switching them off and try again
[Android Apps and Games] RalphTWaP:
Turning off the "Show coordinates" setting works and stops the VM from resetting. Thank you!

What an odd thing.
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Yeah hehe nice, the same thing happens on Xperia devices and I'm not sure why
[Android Apps and Games] darkeagle03:
I love this app! This and Titanium backup are pretty much the 2 reasons that I root my phone :)

I do have one weird question though... What keypress do you choose to get the recent applications list to show up? I have tried almost everything I could think of (about 20 different keys) including Menu, Menu long press, and every gamepad button.

If it makes any difference, I have a Oneplus One, which runs Cyanogen. I like using the hard keys and do not want to turn on the soft keys just for this, so a Tap is out. I have also tried using Cyanogen to rewire the hard buttons so that a single press of the menu key brings up the app list, instead of a long press, but that made no difference (I assume that just changes which keypress is sent to the system).
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Try with APP_SWITCH key [emoji6]
[Android Apps and Games] darkeagle03:
Thank you. It worked. I think I missed that one because it was in the middle of a bunch of other unrelated things.

Hi what whatsapp spammer bot you make?
[Android Apps and Games] csanmba:
I'm loving this app! Just one question. Does the free version have a limit to how many operations it will do if the list is long? I have a very long list and the app seems to stop at a certain point and will not continue.

I thought the android is may be killing it so I lock the app in memory and it still does the same thing.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] #Henkate:
In google play doesnt say anything that free version has a limit,neither in OP. The pro version has just removed ads.
[Android Apps and Games] csanmba:
So it would be safe to say that locking the app in memory is not working and the OS is still killing the app after a certain amount of time?
[Android Apps and Games] #Henkate:
Do you have greenify (auto greenify apps) or any app which clear ram? If not, maybe there is a problem with app.I dont know.

[MENTION=4559222]frapeti[/MENTION]

the only thing im having problem with this lovely app is its being detected as a hacking program to some games lol.. correct if im wrong but im pretty sure this is not a memory editing app like gamechi and game killer.. so im really wondering why it is being identified as a hacking program.. is there a way to avoid detection?if there is..how?

ive been using this app ever since frapeti created this thread..yes i bought it not to remove the ads but as an appriciation to who created/develop it
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:

Hi Frapeti, but the app have a in-built limit of cycles? because after some minutes (5 - 7 mins), the app stop itself without reason...and, when everything is stop, i tap on play button and a toast notify comes up saying "already running, restart it". Why this? Its a bug?

Wait you soon... ;) Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] frapeti:
Thanks for reporting it, I'll update it soon

I will try to reproduce the issue here to see what causes it
[Android Apps and Games] kenh303:
I have the issue of app stop working too. After a few hours, I would have to return to the app and restart it. Whenever I do that I would have to x out 2 ads. Are these causing the issue? Is there a paid version I could use to never see ads again?
[Android Apps and Games] salentos:
Hi Frapeti for me it works really well

I have only one problem : to run the app on pc use BlueStaks and you can not select and open saved files (script) , I see them in the list but it lets me select . please there is' a solution to the problem ?

sorry for my eng.

gio

ho un solo problema:per far girare l'app su pc uso blueStaks e non si riesce a selezionare e ad aprire i file (script)salvati, li vedo nella lista ma non me li lascia selezionare. per favore c'e ' una soluzione al problema?
[Android Apps and Games] EmptyArea:
I'm on Android 5.1 and the stop button doesn't stop the script. Have to force reboot to stop the mayhem. I do love this idea though, thank you very much.

Edit:

Just to add more detail. When I use a cycle count, that works fine and the script stops correctly. The issue I now have is that the tapping rate is too slow, I have the 'show pointer' option on, and I can see there is about a half second delay between taps (no sleeps). Is there anyway to reduce this? When I accidentally started multiple events of the same script the overlapping taps meant a higher tap rate, but obviously this isn't a solution for the user. Thanks again.

Edit2:

My apologies, I did not read the OP fully, my issue with the stop function not working was because of not having a sleep between each tap. I still really hope there is a way to get a higher tap rate :)
[Android Apps and Games] RRUserJJ:
Hello frapeti,

at first thanks for your great tool.

I will be using a S6 soon - and for this your device have to be rooted - right now rooting means you will burn the samsnung pay chip inside of your phone.

Is it somehow possible to use your tool without root? Are there chances to get that in future?

thanks
[Android Apps and Games] mazbot:
Hello frapeti! This app is awesome! I'm trying to use sleep times shorten than 1s, but it seems that it's limited to 1 sec. Could you look into it? I want to make a script which taps 10~20 times per second.
[Android Apps and Games] Skulkirsll:
Hi man! Thanks for this great tool but I still have the issue of the bot not stopping even after I tap the stop button and the message telling me it has stopped appears. I had to reboot my phone to solve this issue. Also, I hope that a lower sleep time between the taps could be somehow added in. Hope I am not asking too much. Cheers! :D

Development

Hi are you still actively developing this??? As last updat was 2014...

If not source code would be great to continue development....

If you are great a Couple suggestions I have...

when adding new taps or sleeps stop going back to the tip of the page.

A clone here instead of sending it to the end of the page

A select all for the check boxes

A for loop would be great...

Lastly a wait and check for an image Change or a color change

Hope there a new version of your bot maker or even back the old version to 3.16 of what did you released last time.

Just met a strange thing. This is a great app and worked find on my phone(Nexus 6P with Anroid 6 MTC20L build). However, today I refreshed my phone with the MTC20L factory image and then the app stopped to work. The floating panel is invisible. When I clicked on the area where it is supposed to be, there was the running message show but nothing will happen. Tried flash the image serveral times it just keep refuse to work. So sad......may anyone know what could be the reason? I do granted it the root permission and allowed it to be shown over other applications. Any help is appreciated!:crying:

But, how could I know the coordinates (x, y) of my screen? Something to do with resolution?

I want to tap in a specific point of the screen and I don't know its coordinates.

Perhaps making a screenshot and getting pixels coordinates?
[Android Apps and Games] JayBass:
Awesome APP, has so much potential. I am working on a dev project for online guild management within rpg android games. Because most games dont have open api the use of bots has become par for the course. I love that you chose json for the script control. This might be a selfish request from my end, but could you consider adding OCR capability to it? If the bot can read value from screen capture to be used in defining a variable that will allow it to control which script to run next would be fantastic.

Having issues getting cyclic count working

I'm using the bot maker to make money for the hacksmith. I created a set of instructions, 265 to be exact, and basically use it to watch ads on the Tab app. However, once I have selected all 265 instructions for the cycle, I don't want to have to click the clone button a hundred plus times. Every time I try and get the cyclic repeater working, the app crashes. Can anybody help me with that?

If you could also add an option to select all the boxes instead of having to individually click each one, that would be amazing
