Motorola Assist
You can create Motorola Assist rules to automatically reply to texts when you’re driving, silence your
ringer during meetings, dim the screen to conserve your battery when it runs low and more. You can
even set a different wallpaper for when you're at home.
Motorola Assist suggests actions to automate, based on how you use your phone. When you see a
suggestion in the status bar, drag the bar down to accept or delete it.
If you are tired of doing the same tasks over and over again, let Motorola Assist do them for you.
