Automagic Forum

Hey automagic's,

first, automagic is an realy great program! Thanks for it.

My wish:

I want to start a app - "blitzer. de" - at a pre definated speed in background and automaticaly close it when the speed degreese for adjustable time.

So can i always drive for shure without manualy staring and closing the app.

Is it possible?

Hi Hilancoo,

You could try to build a flow with a trigger Periodic Location Update: Update every 10s (GPS) to get a location every 10 seconds. You can then access the variable location_speed in a condition expression and check if you are moving fast enough.

A flow could look like this:

• trigger Periodic Location Update: Update every 10s (GPS)
• condition Expression: location_speed>8 (speed is in meters per second, multiply by 3.6 to get km/h)
• true branch:
  • action Launch App: blitzer
• false branch:
  • action Show Home Screen

Battery consumption by this flow will be high. Increase the time interval when possible and only enable the flow when necessary.
