Google Play auto update

[syndromtr]

hello,

some help needed to make this working with Automagic.

instructions for Tasker below (claimed and reported working)
more info: https://github.com/anod/AppWatcher/blob ... eIntent.kt

Send Intent Action:

Action: com.google.android.finsky.VIEW_MY_DOWNLOADS
Extra: trigger_update_all:true
Package: com.android.vending
Class: com.google.android.finsky.activities.MainActivity
Target: Activity

---

i try this with Automagic,

Send Broadcast

action: com.google.android.finsky.VIEW_MY_DOWNLOADS
explicit component checked,
package name: com.android.vending
class name: com.google.android.finsky.activities.MainActivity
extras: putBoolean("trigger_update_all", true);

---

nothing happens, even launching Google Play app before Send Broadcast...
so, can someone fix it and share the working result here or in Flow Sharing Area?

thanks.

Use action "start activity" instead of send Broadcast.

[syndromtr]

thanks, working great with "start activity" only, with those parameters.
this activity can be added safely to EXAMPLES section of Start Activity Action, for incoming versions.

Action : Start Activity

Action: com.google.android.finsky.VIEW_MY_DOWNLOADS
Explicit Component checked,
Package Name: com.android.vending
Class Name: com.google.android.finsky.activities.MainActivity
Extras: putBoolean("trigger_update_all", true);

Just look at tasker send intent, each map to different action in Automagic
Activity >> Start Activity
Service >> Start Service (will be obselete in the future)
Broadcast >> Send Broadcast.
In this case, it is activity, hence Start Activity.

Thanks to you question, I just know we can trigger the update via intent now. I still use my old method of opening playstore and use control UI to navigate to the my apps & games, click the update all.
Using this, no more Control UI needed to navigate, only need the back() if we want to exit after triggering the update.

+1 for this to be added to examples

Thanks for the great example! It will be available in the next update.

Hi, can you tell me if this example is working now.
I create a block like you did, but after that My apps and My games tab opens, update all doesn't start.

not working. Recent play store update broke it.
