How to create action to enable casting?

Post by killtheradio » 17 Oct 2016 15:31

I absolutely love this automagic app, but so far I am not able to find the action to enable casting on my phone. I have searched through the actions on the app and I have searched here on the form with no avail. What I'm trying to do is automate the casting feature on my phone after my music player so that my music from my phone is cast to my Google Chromecast automatically. It is a feature on my phone to cast whether it be audio or even video, so there should be a way to do this, but I don't see it anywhere. Can anyone please help me figure out how to enable casting on my phone? I'm using a rooted nexus 6p running stock Android 7.0. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Automatically switching on casting is not possible directly. You could use action Control UI to simulate taps on the user interface to start the casting.
Maybe this plugin also supports to turn on casting, but I have not tried: AutoCast
You can use plugins with trigger, condition or action Plugin from within Automagic.

Regards,
Martin
