I made a basic Tasker routine to automate downloading from the SubsPlease site using xdcc. You can also browse and search titles found from subsplease. Tasker itself is not required to use this apk, but all the limitations of a kid app apply. Termux and Termux:Tasker are required to be installed as well as the xdcc project. Let me know what you think and if there are any issues!

Why is the repo only an apk? Installing random apk with the code available is already asking for a bit of trust, installing random apks from a github repo without code would be a no go for me

The code is available as an xml ~~in the release section~~. Since its Tasker "code", the xml has all the details in it. I had just uploaded it quickly, wanted an easy way to share it, and accidentally uploaded the apk and xml in the wrong order lol.

Edit: I put the xml in the main repo now, if you want to read it more easily use Tasker to import it, but it is mostly human readable directly from github.

Tasker kid apps can be read by opening them as zip files and reading assets/kid/data.xml but i don't want to appear as if I'm hiding something, so I had added the xml last night, albeit in a bad spot!

Another option is to just use Termux and xdcc manually, all you need are the pack #s and the bot name, my app is just to make automation and to search then download easier than the subsplease site. Mine also shows a notification for download progress :)

Sunxdcc can be used to find packs for non-anime stuff, but I have had little luck downloading from the sunxdcc api reliably
