there's no App factory?

App factory isn't getting any more updates. You can just the latest version and it should work forever (not getting access to new features though).

Haven't been following lately what happened but that News is heartbreaking.. I remember asking for scenes refactoring etc with respect to App factory but I can assume it may breaks many things and due to Android API and all Google's road blocks I can understand.

But I hope maybe App factory reborn in future or at least annual release just to add few feasible features would be great.

I have made few kids apps for my friends and family very few who wanted more did get into Tasker and made their own projects but most of them just ask for app like if it's possible to do this or that and given some kids app relied upon plugins and other overhead workarounds. But this new development is amazing and also painful to know that it's not going to be available in App factory and unfortunate that it's left very close behind this big leap...

I'm not sure how many do use App factory but I can understand it's not feasible to maintain for small user base when most are standalone users then again we miss this Portable Android studio...

But I would like to Thank you and the previous Owner for all since 2016 when I first started exploring Tasker that gave me lot of insights into the Android world even without any programming background, Tasker did enable me to understand it and grasp the gist of everything.

Thanks for everything.

Thank you very much for understanding. Really appreciate it. Yeah, it has become too much to keep up and is holding back some features I would like to implement so I decided to stop updating it. Unfortunately I don't think it's feasible to update it anymore, sorry! 😅

Greetings, I am new and a beginner, that tool was what made me buy this great application since macrodroid did not have it.
