Screen-aware Android automation features

ScriptTap is a no-root Android automation app for user-controlled phone workflows. These pages explain the main feature areas, what each one is good for, and where its limits are.

No-root Android automation Phone-side scripts without root, normal runtime ADB, or a desktop companion. Image matching automation Use visible image states, buttons, icons, and selected screen areas as automation evidence. OCR automation Read selected visible text areas such as captions, labels, prompts, and codes. AI-assisted script packages Use public AI resources to build importable ScriptTap package files. Android routines and shortcuts Start complete user scripts from ScriptTap routine flows or supported Android shortcut and intent entry points. Screen-read automation Choose between Accessibility UI reads, OCR, image checks, and pixel checks.

Which feature should I use?

Visible text: Use UI Find first when Android Accessibility exposes the text or UI element. Use OCR when the important text is pixel-rendered or not exposed, such as many captions or changing prompts.
Visible image, button, or icon state: Use image matching when the target is visual and its shape or appearance matters.
Exact color or pixel state: Use pixel checks when one color sample or a small color condition is enough and you know where to look.
UI element text or tree evidence: Use screen-read automation when an app exposes useful Accessibility text, labels, or element structure.
Compatible external launch: Use shortcuts when another compatible tool should start a complete ScriptTap script.
Scheduled or app-triggered starts: Use ScriptTap Routines for ScriptTap-owned routine and trigger flows, separate from Android launcher shortcuts.
