Microsoft Creates OnX App For Android, Wants to Automate Your Life

Weirdest title in history, right there. Why on Earth Microsoft has developed an Android-only app is beyond me, but we'll take it. The app is called OnX and it aims to automate your life, similarly to what Motorola has done with Smart Actions.
Through OnX, you get to pick out "rules" using a web portal that then translates everything to an app on your phone. It's as minimal as it gets, but think of how nice it would be to have your calendar launched every time you arrived at your job. Or what about having your phone start a weather app in the morning only when it's raining, so that you know how to dress for the day? It's location, time, and action based.
