notification on status bar issue

Post by vamzicool » 13 May 2015 13:37

I want automagic to speak a specific persons whatsapp message when it gets displayed on notification statubar. But even after switching on accessibility option in android settings and testing out the notification on status bar event. Nothing is being captured. The test flow is give below

Hi,

If you are using a newer version of Android (4.3+) you would have to enable the notification detector instead of the accessibility service. The trigger Notification on Statusbar displayed should show a blue information label that opens the settings page to enable access to notifications.
On older versions of Android you might have multiple apps that listen for notifications. If this is the case, you could open Automagic->Manage->Preferences and switch Accessibility Feedback Type to something different than 'Generic'. If this also does not help, you might have to disable Automagic as an accessibility service in the settings of your device, reboot the device and then enable the accessibility service again.

Regards,
Martin

Thank you Martin. It's working now after changing accessibility feedback type to visual. Since I am not good with regular expression I wonder why the following regex is not working

Content title matches regex .*Arun|Boys.*

Which is meant to filter out only messages from Arun or Boys.

Try to add parantheses around the names:
.*(Arun|Boys).*

Otherwise the title has to end with Arun or start with Boys.
