Tap Macro

A TinyTask-style tap recorder/player for Android: record a sequence of taps, then replay them at 1x / 2x / 5x / a custom speed multiplier — no root required.

How it works

• Recording: a transparent full-screen overlay captures your touches (position + hold duration + delay since the previous tap) while instantly replaying each one to the app underneath via Android's Accessibility gesture API, so you see it register live as you tap.
• Playback: the same Accessibility Service replays the recorded taps with their delays divided by your chosen speed multiplier.
• Controller: a small draggable floating bubble (Record / Stop / Play / Speed / Save) that stays on top of whatever app you're automating.

No root is used or required. This relies entirely on the public AccessibilityService + dispatchGesture API.

Building the APK

Option A — On a PC

1. Install Android Studio (free, from developer.android.com).
2. File → Open, select this TapMacro folder.
3. Let Android Studio sync Gradle.
4. Build → Build Bundle(s)/APK(s) → Build APK(s).
5. Grab the APK from app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk.

Option B — Phone only, via GitHub Actions

This repo includes .github/workflows/build.yml, which builds the APK on GitHub's servers — no SDK install on the phone needed. Push this project to a GitHub repo (e.g. from Termux with git), then check the Actions tab in your repo on github.com for the built APK under the workflow run's Artifacts.

Using the app

1. Open Tap Macro, tap "Enable Accessibility Service" → find "Tap Macro" in the list → turn it on.
2. Tap "Allow Draw Over Other Apps" → grant the permission.
3. Tap "Start Floating Controller" — a small bubble appears on screen.
4. Open the app/game you want to automate. Drag the bubble wherever's convenient (drag the ⠿ Tap Macro handle).
5. Tap Rec, perform your taps, tap Stop.
6. Pick a speed (1x / 2x / 5x / Custom) from the dropdown.
7. Tap Play to replay the sequence at that speed. Tap Save if you want to keep the macro (stored as JSON under the app's private storage — wire up a "load" screen in MainActivity if you want to browse/replay saved macros later; MacroStorage.list()/load() are already there).

Notes & limits

• Works system-wide (any app), since gestures are dispatched at the OS level via Accessibility — but some apps with strong anti-automation/anti-cheat protections may detect or block synthetic gestures.
• Coordinates are recorded in absolute screen pixels, so a macro recorded on one device/resolution won't line up correctly on a different device.
• The custom speed dialog accepts any positive multiplier (e.g. 0.5 for half speed, 10 for 10x).
