Some apps require users to click or tap on their phones to continue working. Idle games, for example, need you to constantly click as you play. However, doing so can be a hassle. Clickmate is an app that can help you. It is a free auto-clicker, which allows you to record both the clicks and gesture patterns on your screen. You can then play them back whenever you need constant clicking.

What is Clickmate?

You can apply Clickmate to programs and tasks that require continuous clicks or gesture patterns to function. It has two modes available. First is the Recording Mode — you can record and reproduce your touch input and system actions. You can record gestures, such as pressing the back button, clicking the menu and apps button. You can even record taking a screenshot using the built-in navigation bar. The recorded tasks can then be easily repeated as many times as you want.

The second mode is called the Manual Mode, and it is helpful for clicking apps. In this mode, you can select points on the screen, specify an action—swipe and tap—and let the app do its magic. The actions are fully customizable, so you can set swipe and tap duration, the repeat interval, and the repeat count. You can even randomize the coordinates.

Clickmate is free to use. It's also lightweight and does not require rooting for it to function. However, users should note that not all features are free. Some advanced functions are only available through integrated in-app purchases. Additionally, features such as screenshot recording are only available to Android 9 and higher. The minimum OS requirement for this app to work is Android 7.0 and higher.

Helpful but could use improvement

Overall, Clickmate is a helpful tool. It works as advertised, allowing users to record gesture patterns and clicks, and repeat them as many times as they want. However, there are a few improvements that the developers could apply. For one, the buttons can be a little bigger so users could avoid accidentally recording new gestures when pinpointing gestures to record. Additionally, it is a little slow, but that is expected when you overlay something on your phone.
