It is not a free app, but tasker can work as automation for your Android phone. I am writing this up in response to another thread talking about android battery life, but this little app can do a lot of things. We all automate our homes, why not your phone?
When I get home (near wifi AP)...
- turn off GPS
- say welcome home
When I leave home
- turn on bluetooth
- turn on GPS
When connect to bluetooth audio...
- Open beyondpod and start playing my netcasts
- Enable reading SMS aloud (another tasker profile)
Car bluetooth disappears...
- Turn of GPS
- Mark my position so that I can find where I parked -- Just in case.
When in a meeting...
- turn to vibrate mode
Out of a meeting...
- Back to ringer
Early morning...
Make sure all volumes are back to normal so that my alarm can be heard.
These are just a few samples. Here is a wiki with more ideas...
