Watch the AutoPebble Tutorial video:
To get started with AutoPebble follow these steps:
- (Optional) Create a new project in Tasker called AutoPebble and assign it the AutoPebble icon. This will help you keep things organized. You can create a new project by disabling beginner mode in the Tasker settings and long-clicking the bar at the bottom
- Create a new profile with the State->plugins->”AutoPebble App” condition
- Edit the condition and check the “Watch App Opened” option
- Accept your settings and create a new Task
- Add a plugin->Plugin->”AutoPebble List” action
- Set the following values:
- Header: Home
- Labels: Popup,Say Hello
- Accept all your settings and exit Tasker with the back button on your Android device.
- Open the AutoPebble watch app on your Pebble. A new list should show up with the Header “Home” and with two items on the list: “Popup” and “Say Hello”
- Select the “Popup” option by selecting with the middle button on your Pebble
- On your Android device, open the AutoPebble app and select “Log Listing”
- There should be a “Commands” tab there that shows a “Popup” command. This is what happened when you selected the “Popup” option on your Pebble: you received a command that joined the “home” prefix you configured above with the “Popup” label that you selected
- Now lets react to this command. Open Tasker again and add a new profile with a State->Plugins->”AutoPebble” condition
- Under Command Filter write “Popup”. Accept the settings
- In the Task create a new “Popup” Tasker action and in the text field write “SUCCESS!”. You can not write it in all caps if you’re not that excited 😉
- Now exit Tasker again with the Tasker back button and select the “Popup” option on your Pebble again. You should see the popup on your Android device!
- Now go back to your “AutoPebble List” action and in the “Actions” field write:
- Popup=:=This is some text,Say=:=Hello
- This will set the first 2 actions on your list. The “Popup=:=This is some text” action will be the action for the first line, which is “Popup”, and the “Say=:=Hello” action will be for the second line, which is “Say Hello”. These actions use the AutoApps Command System
- Edit your previously create Popup Task and replace “SUCCESS!” with “Command: %apcomm”. %apcomm is whatever comes after =:=, which in this case is “This is some text”.
- Exit Tasker and re-enter the AutoPebble watch app. Now when you press Popup on your Pebble, you should see a popup on your Android device with the text “Command: This is some text”
- Open Tasker again and add a new profile with a State->Plugins->”AutoPebble” condition with the command filter
- Say=:=
- In the Task, add a Tasker “Say” action and in the Text field, write
- %apcomm
- As previously stated, %apcomm is whatever comes after =:=, which in this case is “Hello”.
- Exit Tasker and re-enter AutoPebble on your watch. Select the “Say Hello” line and press the middle button on your Pebble. Your Android device should now say “Hello”
