Android Wear hourly chime/vibrate

Post by dewalist » 18 Apr 2016 19:06

Hi all,
I am trying to create a flow that will vibrate my Android Wear LG G Watch every hour. My flow is only two steps - the time trigger and the vibrate action. There is no error in the log when I run it, but I can't seem to get it to work. Is this a root-only function? Or is there some permission I need to grant either on the watch or on my phone?

Thanks!

Hi,

Action Vibrate (Android Wear) should work on a regular non-rooted device. Please check on the watch that Automagic Wear is installed and is allowed to run. It's usually installed and should work if there's an activity called Shortcut with the blue Automagic icon on the wear device. Click the activity to see if the shortcut feature would be working (a text 'Please create a flow...' should be shown). If this is working, create an action Vibrate (Android Wear) on the phone, keep the editing screen open and press menu->Execute to see if the action is working now.

Regards,
Martin

Awesome, thanks Martin! I found Automagic Wear in my apps list waiting for permissions to be granted. Once I did that and reran my flow, it worked! Thanks again! :D
