using tasker and autovoice to reply to sms

[Mike Kramer]

I use tasker to read sms messages to me when I am connected to my cars Bluetooth. That's all working fine now. I remember someone had a profile where after receiving a sms, tasker asks do you want to reply to the sms, and a yes triggers the voice recognition to reply to the sms. How can I add this to my profile ? I know I probably have to use get voice but then how do I stop the voice recognition ?

Have you tried playing with it yet? You can set the Timeout to whatever you like. Also, I could be wrong about this, but I think voice recognition will stop after a second or two of silence (or abrupt change in noise level at least) following an input command.

I have created below profile, which works fine. While I am in the car, when I receive a sms, I can reply, edit my reply, and send the message. The sms is read through my Bluetooth speakers in the car. So far, so good. But instead of using the cars microphone when I use Autovoice recognise, it uses the phones microphone, and when the phone is in my pocket which it normally is it does not work. I am not sure there is a way to force autovoice to use the Bluetooth microphone ? I thought by switching to BT headset it would use both speakers and microphone via Bluetooth... obviously not in my case. Might be the car... 2006 Audi A4

I have tried changing

Voice command without headset

 

to 

Voice command with headset

 

but that did not work at all

[Scott Miller]

This might sound odd, but go to settings, accounts, Google, search, voice and then turn on the option to listen over Bluetooth. I had to do this to get Waze to recognize voice commands over Bluetooth. I didn't expect it to work, but it did.

looking at it it does make sense. I have enabled it, will test it next time i'm in the car...

[Mike Kramer]

It did not work unfortunately. When i have bluetooth headset diabled in the autovoice recognise, it is trying to use the microphone in my phone instead of the cars. When i tick use bluetooth headset (which would be the logical thing to do) it is stuck on autovoice recognise, but it does not get any voice from any microphone so it is completely stuck on that command.
