Spotify header button

[Xyphes]

Hello,
Does anyone know if it's possible to use control media action to simulate the header_play_button on Spotify?
I tried a bunch of things but I only succeeded in resuming the current song.

Thanks in advance

You should be able to use the UI Interaction action:


To configure the UI Interaction you can use the "Identify in App" scheme, or type in the button's ID (com.spotify.music:id/header_play_button) directly.

Yhea I already tried that but the UI interaction action needs the screen to be on.
I forgot to mention that I want this macro to run anytime my bad haha

Ah. Try adding a Screen On action before launching Spotify:

Mh.. I tried but it seems that the phone needs to be unlocked

Could add a Wait Until Trigger action with a trigger of Screen Unlocked, before doing the UI Interaction action, but ... if the goal is to have this happen on your phone even if you're not near it, or don't want to unlock it, I'm fresh out of ideas.

One can send an intent to Spotify to display a playlist, but I've never seen an intent to start playing one.

Hopefully someone else knows that part.

You can also unlock with UI action and add this to the macro
