MacroDroid

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A mobile app with no indication of notability or significance other than "it exists". Self-sourced, too. — kashmīrī  TALK  09:25, 31 October 2021 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Keep I was fully expecting this to be a delete, however, on searching I've found many articles dating back as far as 2012, which I feel establishes notability. NemesisAT (talk) 11:36, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete (WP:G5, SPI). MarioGom (talk) 21:39, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * A speedy delete wouldn't be appropriate as I have made substantial edits to the article. NemesisAT (talk) 23:18, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Right. Struck my !vote. MarioGom (talk) 07:51, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * @NemesisAT: The two links to obscure websites you added did little to prove notability per WP:N. A speedy is perfectly warranted IMO. — kashmīrī  TALK  08:14, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I added five links, not two. NemesisAT (talk) 10:25, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep A quick search turns up a number of third-party reviews, establishing notability. The article needs some work, but not deletion. Anton.bersh (talk) 09:45, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
 * A few informercials in 2012–2014, when pretty much every Android app was making it to the media. Then one niche article in 2016 and another one in 2021. Does it make a piece of software so notable as to merit an encylopaedic article? I strongly doubt. — kashmīrī  TALK  11:19, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I still found a few in-depth reviews. For the purposes of establishing notability please evaluate these:
 * ZDnet (reasonably respected publication) in-depth review: https://www.zdnet.com/article/this-app-has-made-me-fall-in-love-with-android/
 * Android Headlines review: https://www.androidheadlines.com/2016/05/macrodroid-is-a-very-capable-device-automation-app.html
 * https://www.talkandroid.com/122019-featured-play-store-newbie-macrodroid-tools/
 * Two sources in other languages (I can not evaluate them, but at first glance they appear genuine):
 * https://lifehacker.ru/macrodroid/
 * https://helpix.ru/appinion/201712/2053-macrodroid-delaem_telefon_esche_umnee.html
 * Also, I updated my vote to "weak keep", since I don't have a strong opinion either way. Anton.bersh (talk) 16:57, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
