Favorite smart actions???

[epiphone74]

OK what im looking for in this thread;

Type of smart action (reason for it)

Triggers

Actions

Sofar all the threads in here have been complaints, bug fix, or feature creep.

Lets hear what you have created and how well it works for you....

Driving.

Triggers- car dock navigation

Actions- turn off wifi, turn on Bluetooth , turn on waze and slacker radio

And I use the night mode one too.

I use the WiFi on at home rule:

Trigger: Location (home address)
Actions: WiFi on

This turns on my WiFi when at home and turns it off when I leave.

Great guys thanks for posting

Any one else using smart actions for power saving, meetings, sleep modes, list goes on and on.. Keep it up!!!

[Redsnk95]

Haven't really explored the other options. For work reasons I may have an action do auto text reply to incoming phone calls when Bluetooth is enabled. I haven't needed the power savings so far with the Razr Maxx....the battery is already plenty.

I modified the built-in "Battery Extender" smart action to the following:

Triggers: Display : off , Charging:Not Charging , Motion Detector:No Movement
Actions: GPS : off , Cellular data : disable

Disabling cellular data when not actively using the phone probably doubles my battery life. The trade-off is that it takes the phone about 15-20 seconds to enable the cellular radio and connect to 4G. This mostly useful for when I'm at the office and the phone is just sitting on my desk. Sometimes I disable the smart action if I'm in a situation where I want to have immediate access to data stuff.

I use Llama for other automation stuff. I have it set to lower the ringer volume and notification volume when at work, and increase these volumes when not at work. I also have it set to connect to wifi at home (and a couple of other places where wifi is available).

I that disabling the cellular data when not "actively" using phone???

[mattman5000]

Yes. I meant to say "when not actively using the phone". Thanks for pointing that out. I just edited my original post and made the correction.
