Mobile devices, especially tablets and smartphones, have achieved enormous popularity over the last ten years due to their ease of use and multifunctionality, thus gaining meritoriously a prominent space in our daily lives. On the opposite side, despite improvements in usability and intuitiveness, to use desktop devices users must learn how to interact with the operating system, how to achieve tasks, and fulfil system's specifications. This paper aims to present a methodology that responds to identified needs of users allowing them to execute any given tasks from mobile applications. Based on real-time database, task automation and mobile interactive systems the approach aims to reduce the challenges that users face while trying to perform a task, as well as improving the efficiency of task performance. The approach combines the features and capabilities of both SQLite and Firebase tools to simplify the process used by such users to perform tasks. The use of mobile devices enhances the usability of the new interactive system. This describes the methodology and the research is illustrated by means of a daily task application example
