Event-Based Automation
2022-08-17
What events? Above apps dealt with them as well: Reaching a given location or point-in-time are events, too. But there are more, as e.g. plugging in your ear buds, or being near/connected-to a given WiFi network, just to name two. So the following apps support multiple different events (or even allow combinations).
