Scenario when this would be used?
- Set the theme to dark mode every day at 7pm and light mode at 7am
- Turn off wi-fi for the rest of the day
- Set laptop speaker volume to zero every morning
Supporting information
- Similar to Task Scheduler but more friendly
- More focused and easy to jump in and out than Power Automate
- Could evolve to include more settings
- Triggers could make more complex scenarios like when connecting to specific Wi-Fi networks, or locations like have a
- "work mode" trigger which sets a few settings when arriving to work, or home
- This could be an Awake v2
Make it a separate app that doesn't need PowerToys open to work just like "File Locksmith" and Power Rename
