    "Make Call" as an action does not work reliably

    @Pseudocyclic: That is interesting. When I saw the possibility of sendeing UDP to a server, I thought about programming a ESP8266 with a relay, but building a safe box for everyday use is a lot of hassle. I looked on amazon, there are very many brands of these plugs. Do you know a brand that is...

    "Make Call" as an action does not work reliably

    To @MacroDroidDev: Sorry for that long pause. I have news that might be interpreted as good or bad: I cannot recreate the issue, the really bad thing is, I do not know why. I made many tests, and Make Call always worked. Earlier I wrote: {If the macro is triggered from the home screen, no...

    "Make Call" as an action does not work reliably

    "Make Call" as an action does not work reliably

    Thanks for your fast answer. I used Flip Device. Made 5 tests. 1x callWasTooShort 3x CallWasOk 1x noCall. BTW, FlipDevice does not work when the screen is dark, it must be ON to work. I can make more tests tomorrow.

    "Make Call" as an action does not work reliably

    Hi, I want to use a simple macro: it should trigger when the battery (chariging) reaches a value of say 80%. Then "Make Call" should inform me with a call on my fixed line phone, to remind me to stop charging. This phone call works as expected if I execute "Test action", as well if I do a "Test...
