Hi there,
i'm trying to get the curent direction (displayed as an icon) from the maps notification while navigating with an AN-Intercept-trigger. this one:

while the Distance is stored in %antitle, i cant find any readable text for the direction. AN stores the corresponding icon, but every time under the same name, so i had tasker check for the md5 of that png-file to determine which icon it is, but thats a poor workaround, and works only for one specific device, since slightes changes mess up the md5's:

Beside there are many apps available vor G-maps turn by turn navigation on smartwatches (NavMe for Pebble / MiBand-Navigator etc). all of them work by granting notification access, so they then can somehow read out distance and direction instructions, an pass them to the watch. what is exacly what i want:

that's why im truly think beside the icon, there has to be some other way off getting direction from navigation-notification, but none of the variables provided by AN contains this information. could anybody help me ?
