Tasker + Bluetooth Button

[John_]

Hello !

I'm searching a way to start an tasker action by pressing a wireless bluetooth button, like this (or another)  :

any idea ?

Thanks

You can use Autovoice plugin and his context bluetooth botton pressed.

You could also use the AutoInput plugin.  That will let you remap multiple buttons and let each of them perform a different function.  I've got several Flic buttons on order for use in my car, but if they don't work the way I hope I'm going to buy something like this:

and try turning it into a control center with AutoInput.

Physical Button Music Control http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-physical-button-music-control-1-8-t2620777

don't get confused by "...Music..." in the name. You can control everything with it and it overrules probably all the other solutions here...Very powerful - you have been warned ;-)

it might need Xposed..

Choose Screen-On or -OFF, learn Keys, here BT-Buttons,assign "other Action" Tasker Shortcut

Have you received your flic's and do they work with tasker?

[Mike Wilson]

Unfortunately, not yet.  I did contact Flic with that question about Tasker because their website made it look like it could only do certain things through their app.  However, I was specifically told that it did work with Tasker.  Their app is on on the play store now, but I haven't looked at it yet; that might clear it up.

In the meantime, I've found something that actually works better for my application:

I'll still try the Flics when I get them, but I probably won't use them as extensively as I would have.
