I also want it!!

I have 50 flows and a widget connected together to form something awesome.

I cant share it coz automagic is paid!

Hi,

Compiling flows to APK is currently not a planned feature since it would lead to less than optimal APKs. It's more likely that I will provide a free Automagic runtime at some point which would allow most features that the regular Automagic version supports except that it does not allow to create/change flows. Please note that I did not yet finally decide that I will actually do this, it's just on the list of features under consideration.

Regards,
Martin

Hi,

Thank you for quick replies. If it is going to be free forever, it may not be necessary to convert it to Flow & apk, but everyone will benefit. By the way, I'm a computer programmer. I am good at Delphi, Php and script as well as AutoHotKey software.

+1 for implementing this free version as sharing good flows to other non technical users will become easy.

+1 for the share/use only variation of Automagic.

But i'm not sure about the .apk compile feature.
You're basically asking Martin to let yourself be able to freely share Automagic Premium functionality just because x-amount of people aren't techsavvy.
Why not try it?

Hello Martin,

Is this Automagic runtime feature still something you would work on?
I've got a lot of simple flows which can also benifit my family, friends. And having such feature would surely be welcomed.

Thanks,
Thanks for reading this post.
