Trigger: Open URL
Posted: 14 May 2017 03:41
It'd be useful if you could add an intent filter to the manifest that would allow Automagic to receive url open requests. When I tap a url in an app, Automagic would be in the list of browsers.
Why do I want this? I have a couple of apps from which I usually _don't_ want to open clicked urls in my browser. Instead I might want to use a TTS app to read the page aloud, for example.
I currently implement this using AutoShare which can receive URL open requests. However, that adds a layer of indirection which slows things down, and I think AutoShare may be messing up url escaping. It'd be cool if Automagic could handle this directly.
