A lightweight, powerful automation tool

Unlock automation with TinyTask, the lightweight auto clicker for gaming and daily tasks. Save time and boost productivity with this user-friendly tool. TinyTask is one of the most useful tools for Windows users, especially those who are often troubled by repetitive tasks. With this free Windows automation tool, you can easily record and repeat actions.

The program lets you record processes, which can be used as macros with the click of a button. As the name suggests, the app is lightweight and doesn’t require more than a few seconds to install. In fact, it doesn’t even require coding or scripting to automate processes. With it, you can save a good amount of your time, helping you with your efficiency and productivity.

Automate repetitive processes within a couple of clicks

TinyTask is a straightforward, simple, and easy-to-use application. Unlike complicated programs, this one doesn’t require you to possess technical skills or scripting knowledge. With this lightweight application, you can easily automate tasks on PCs. All you need to do is record the screen, and the app automatically creates a specific macro. You can easily repeat the action anytime. Like MacroMaker, TinyTask comes with a single screen, which features an intuitive and simple interface.

How to use the app?

As mentioned earlier, with the intuitive, simple, and clean interface, anyone can start using the application instantly. In order to create macros, you don’t require any experience. Additionally, since the app is unobtrusive, the small window keeps running in the background. As such, you can continue to focus on other important tasks. Everything is displayed in large-sized buttons in a single row. Therefore, while the app doesn’t come with comprehensive tutorials or an informative Help section, it still doesn’t confuse beginners.

In order to start recording a task, you only need to click the Record button. The tool automatically captures everything on the screen, including your navigation on a website, opening a folder or file, and even elaborate actions. Once you’re done capturing the screen, you can stop the recording and click Play.

TinyTask will then repeat every action you perform on the screen. If you think the recording is satisfactory, you can click Save and subsequently name the macro file. Whenever you wish to repeat the recorded tasks, you can use the saved macros. You need to click the Play button and watch as the mouse cursor on the screen moves to carry out the processes.

Just in case the media player automatically starts playing the file, you can close it with the cross button, and choose the app from the Open With selection. You can even let the computer choose this option on default, which ensures your media player doesn’t automatically start playing macros.

Does it create configurable macros?

Like AutoHotKey and Jitbit Macro Recorder, all the recordings from the app can be saved in a REC format on the PC’s hard drive. These can be compiled as EXE files, allowing you to conveniently recreate macros at a later date. With this option, you’re also able to conduct automation tasks in the quickest way possible. It’s worth mentioning that the popular Windows automation tool creates configurable macros.

From the app’s Settings panel, you can do the following actions:

  • Change the play speed, whether fast, slow, or normal.
  • Set the file to play back a specific number of times or continuously.
  • Show or hide tips.

With INI files, you can save these settings, saving more of your time. For easier automation, it lets you set the playback and recording keys within a couple of clicks.

Does it have a portable version?

Unlike GS Auto Clicker and other similar programs, it is available in a portable version. Therefore, it allows you to bypass the standard installation process. As such, the program doesn’t affect your computer’s Start menu/screen or Windows registry. It can be conveniently used on these operating systems:

  • Windows XP.
  • Windows 8.
  • Windows 10.
  • And more.

Apart from this, you can carry the file in a USB flash drive, which lets you transfer pre-set configurations of macros without much trouble. Whether you’re working on your PC at home or work, the portable version is an excellent choice to avoid repetitive tasks. While it is already an excellent time-saving tool, the portable file is the perfect choice for people working on multiple devices or computers.

Does it offer good support?

Unfortunately, it doesn’t offer good support. However, with such a lightweight program of 33kb in size, you won’t face too many hiccups. The simple interface, straightforward features, and ease of use allow you to use the application without much trouble. While there’s a Help section in the app, it’s not too comprehensive and provides you only with basic information about creating macros.

Having said that, the program is ideal for both beginners and experienced users. The app rarely crashes or lags, and keeps running in the background without taking up too much memory or CPU usage.

Usage in Roblox

Gamers love using the app as an auto clicker, especially in games like Roblox and Minecraft. To use it in Roblox, simply launch the program, start recording your desired actions, and save the recording. You can then play it back in the game as needed. However, it’s important to note that using auto clickers in online games might be against the game’s terms of service and can result in a ban.

How to use it in Anime Adventures

To use the app for automating actions in Anime Adventures or any other game, first, open the game and position the windows as needed. Launch the app, and press the Rec button or use the Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R shortcut to start recording. Perform the desired actions in the game, then stop the recording. You can play back the recording as needed and even set playback loops for continuous action.

How to stop playback

To stop playback, press the Break, Scroll Lock, or Pause keys on your keyboard. These keys serve as emergency stops for the app, allowing you to halt playback immediately if necessary.

Setting up a loop

To set up a loop in the app, go to Preferences in the toolbar and select Set Playback Loops. Enter the desired number of loops, and the program will play the recording consecutively for the specified number of times.

Hassle-free, quick, and lightweight

Overall, TinyTask can help you save much time that you’d have otherwise spent on repetitive tasks. It’s a lightweight program, which doesn’t require a lot of system resources. With minimal memory and CPU usage, it provides easy and quick automation for Windows PCs. You simply need to record to create macros, which can be executed with hotkeys. While carrying out repetitive processes, it is a useful tool to reduce the number of clicks and manual work.
