    Invoke macro too recently then queue the macro actions

    You could make a variable that counts the amount of Triggers (variable+1 every time a macro is invoked). Then you put all the actions you would like to perform in a repeat loop, that repeats the amount of cycles of the earlier mentioned variable. The only thing you need to sort out is when or...

    File path of Shell script

    Dear all, I got things working. The trick was 1.) Using a freely accessible and existing folder (I use the Downloads folder now). My self-created folder did give issues. 2. Indeed the 'sh' needs to be added to the file path. With this it works perfectly. Thanks for all your help! Regards Chris

    File path of Shell script

    Thanks for your input. The leading / makes no difference by the way. Furthermore I copied and double checked the complete file path. If I remember well (was 4 years ago} there was something special with how file paths are being written in relation to Shell scripts. That's als the reason that on...

    File path of Shell script

    Well, maybe my phrasing was not specific enough. The returned answer is stored in a variable, and that one says that Permission is denied. I think it has to do with the way the path is build. I checked my old phone again and the path in the file manager is formulated like this...

    File path of Shell script

    Thanks for the reply. Yes, the scripts are copied :) I copied the the file path from my file manager to MacroDroid, so that should be okay. But if I remember well, there was something specific to the way the path should be prompted for a Shell script in MD. But I forgot what exactly :( I...

    Hi all, Is there a clever way to check if a certain text displayed on the current screen? For background infoThe app of my streaming device always notifies me there is new software available.

    Wifi change stays not fixed

    Dear dhj49er, Thanks a lot for your detailed explanation. I indeed think this is behaviour of the OS, it seems not much MD can do about that. I puzzle with it a bit more, maybe I find a an alternative. Thanks!

    Wifi change stays not fixed

    Dear dhj49er, Thank for the reply. Indeed both networks where checked for automatic connect. This would ensure that when only WifiExtender is available, it connects to that network. The idea was that when both networks are available, it priotizes WifiRouter. Regards Chris

    Wifi change stays not fixed

    Hi all, I hope you can help. I have a WiFi network with an range extender. My router and extender have their own SSID. Let's name them WifiRouter en WifiExtender for now. I prefer to be connected to WifiRouter, but occasionally I do connected with WifiExtender. So I made a macro that...

    Waking Time Tracker

    This should work. I think the geofence trigger is not triggering. Did you check the system log to confirm that? Please also check if the right permissions are given (like location permissions) Alternatively you can use the cell tower Trigger. Chris

    Delay in http get Action

    Hm, that's quite a drawback indeed, especially because I use the HTTP-response to update my current volume level in a variable. Well, in the meantime I keep searching for the root cause. BEcause I'm not even sure if MD is causing the issue.
