Hey guys,

I came across this a few days ago and thought it was very interesting. I haven't had much time to play with it much but from what I've seen and read, I'm really interested in playing with it more. Essentially, it's an app for android devices that allows you to remotely (through their website) program your phone to do automated tasks based on an "if X, then Y" scenario. The possibilities are virtually endless!

Some examples are:

- If I have left my work office, then automatically text my wife "I am on my way home."
- If I am home, automatically turn on my wifi (and vice versa).

Since I know esato is a great community of phone geeks with a love for customization and improving our user experience, I wanted to start this thread to give those interested in On (x) to share scripts that we write as well as ask questions of each other.

Here's a link to the website: https://www.onx.ms/#!landingPage

The website currently has what they call "recipes" which are scripts the developers have already written that can be imported to your phone for immediate use or easily modified for your particular purposes.

Let me know what you guys think and hopefully we can get the ball rolling.

Saw this a few days ago too...

Ironically, this is a Microsoft project, for Android.

yup, it sure is. but that's ok. as long as it works, works well, and is easy to use, i don't care who developed it.

I'm excited to look into it more, for sure.
