Questions on Automagic Functionality

[LegacyMJR]

I am new to android development but not programming. Before I download Automagic I would like to know if it is possible to use it to monitor the SMS text "stream" and when it detects a text to "call" another App (.apk) and pass it a text string comprising the text, the sender name and number etc. Once I know this is possible I will download the app and get on with it!

Welcome, I didn't understand directly what you want (the part with passing the information to another app). But you can download the trial version for free to test if it works for you. In the trial version you can create two flows (like functions in programming). These flows works normally trigger based, so you can define a trigger and when one of triggers for the flow get the value "true" the flow starts. One trigger you can define is "incoming SMS". In the flow you can parse the text, for example with regular expressions and if the sms includes the "stream" or starts with it (depends on the regular expression) the flow continues with the next action.

EDIT: Maybe a liitle hint. The action "script" can be very helpful to create and play around with variables.

Automagic supports intents ('Send Broadcast' action), so if your other app supports Android Intents you can pass it information and get it to do something. This may also help:
