Quick Settings Tile

Post by Kyrux » 15 Jun 2019 20:11

Hey, how can I turn on/off any quick setting tile that i have?
I have a VPN app but its got no widget to turn on/off vpn besides the tile from quick setting.

I will automate it to click the tile when screen is on/off to turn VPN on and off.

Could anyone help me if automagic have such capability?

Running Android 8.0 with root.

Touching the quicksetting tile can be done via Control UI. This will toggle the VPN. But in your case, you want to use it with screen on/off, and Control UI doesn't work when screen is off. So you are out of luck.

Better find some alternative VPN that can use automation, or support intent. OpenVPN is a good example.
