From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

you could use Termux::API to get stats (battery percentage, notifications, calls, some other stuff) of your phone from your PC.

this video gives good examples

I use Termux:Boot, Termux:API, plus root to disable the green dot notification for location access. It's a little cleaner than going through Tasker since the Secure Settings plugin isn't maintained anymore.
