Tasker, otherwise known as the "contextualized task-based app", is an Android application that helps users automate many common tasks on their smartphone for full customizability options.

Though users are prompted to opt into the paid version, it's possible to use Tasker for a free seven day trial to see if it works for you. Tasker automatically works by noticing what tasks the user repeatedly performs and slowly making them more automated.

For instance, the app will automatically decrease screen brightness in the night time so that your smart device won't hurt your eyes. In the morning, Tasker can be configured to automatically toggle your most used apps. Your notifications can be changed to populate with information about national news, weather, and social media updates.

For more specific tasks, users are able to change the app's settings to make it perform even more complex operations. It's possible to have Tasker push photos, videos, and other smart device media to cloud-based storage on a recurring time line. Files and folders can be backed up to the SD card without a second thought.

Tasker is even able to suppress alerts from specific apps or contacts based on your preferences and the time of day.

Ultimately, there's no end to the way that Tasker can be specifically customized. Tasker is meant to make using your smart device as easy, painless, and click-free as possible.
