I really want something that can auto-programmaticaly cut a perfect loop from shorter audio samples

If I was on Android (which I'm not) I would want an Android clone of Apple Shortcuts/Automations, I literally wouldnt buy or daily drive something I couldnt metaprogram to do all the niche little oddities I have mine do and continually add to

Edit: looks like Tasker is the closest Android equivalent to Apple Shortcuts

I mean, what I have is kinda permanent but it's not perfect.

I want an app that will let me remote control my phone while in VR, without having to let the app on the phone that needs to run having access to shit it does not need at all. I've only found one app to remote into the phone and it wants permission types I've never even seen any other app ask for, and giving it that permission breaks a bunch of other apps.

I thought there would be a built in solution for this, maybe in the dev tools for Android, but those don't let you remote into the phone like Remote Desktop for PC; it just lets you send command line commands to it from a terminal.

If you run Linux then there is KDEconnect phone app, you have permissions and access stuff on phone end and PC end. I.e. I can SMS from my desktop, or use they keyboard input for phone, access phone folders, copy clipboard between them etc.

There is a Windows app but I find it really poor and broken, compared to the Linux app.
