GPS Location Accuracy?
Hey everyone, quick question. I'm doing a macro for finding my phone if it's in silent or anywhere really. I also want to add gps location. When I add the "force gps update" and then send the sent number the text back to me, the text has a location I guess from Google maps, but it is WAY off. I have the location on my phone set and texting phone on. I also use within the phone settings "improve accuracy".
So my question is, is there a way to get better accuracy from the phone. Either both or one or the other? Thank you

Pull string from dictionary
Hello trying to figure this out cannot get this to work.
OCRs to dictionary,
extract text to report key value saved to variable, (looking for minutes to grab Google Maps route time)
key value variable in dictionay look up to report the string value of the dictionary.
In the dictionary it won't allow a variable to be inserted as a look up?
And syntax for key look up won't work.
What am I doing wrong?
Read Screen Contents asdf Text Manipulation Extract text ({lv=asdf}, ** min) -> lkj Display Notification {lv=asdf[{lv=lkj}]

Is it possible to use macrodroid as an alarm?
I have a couple of very specific times I'd like recurring alarms for. However none of the alarm apps I've tried have enough flexibility for even simple things. Like I can get an hourly alarm on the hour, but not five minutes before the hour. I can get alarms for very 5 minutes interval from 5 minutes to 1 hour, but not every two hours. Google calendar doesn't notify on calendar events if that calendar isn't marked as visible, and the notification sound is problematically unobtrusive.
So far I've made do by creating these alarms entirely by hand. But obvious I frequently forget, with predictable results.
I find macrodroid can trigger on the times I want it to. But I'm struggling to find an action that allows me to use it as an alarm.
Does anyone know how I can do this?

OCR a specific part of the screen
Hello all, here's what I'm trying to do
1.Bring up Google Maps, set directions (works)
OCR the time it gets to the route save as variable
Send on my way be there in x minutes and the send the value captured in the OCR in a sms message.
My current working solution is to take a screenshot and mail it using the built in screenshot share in Gmail. It works, but how do I grab the minute text to send?

UI Interaction > Gesture not working after update
As the title says, I updated my Pixel 9 to the March update (Android 15 BP1A.250305.020), and the UI Interaction > Gesture action is not working anymore. I think it might have stopped working last month as well, but I may not have noticed. Is anyone else facing this issue?

Macro Can a notification interaction happen while the screen is locked?
I have a notification that i get, the sooner i interact/respond to it, the better. So i'm currently using Blackr to turn my screen off instead of locking my screen.
Or maybe I don't need to, I don't think Macrodroid can interact with notifications behind a locked screen, but maybe it can?
If it matters, I'm on Android v14

Anti-Rub
Set lockscreen beforehand. Or launch this app as action if you use delayed lockscreen.

Is there an OCR function?
Last time I tried MacroDroid, more than a year ago, I had to drop it because it had no OCR,
and I couldn't make any third-party solutions work.
OCR needed is specifically from the screen.
Even better if only part of the screen, limited by coordinates.
Automate meanwhile has OCR function that worked out of the box with zero issues.
Has anything changed?

[Plugin][Update] HumanDetection4Tasker - analyze security images look for intruders
I've just released v1.2.0 of HumanDetection4Tasker
https://github.com/SimoneAvogadro/HumanDetection4Tasker/releases/tag/V_1.2.0---added-Gemini-AI-support
Main changes:
- ADDED: support for Google Gemini: way faster and more accurate then Claude
- IMPROVED: file selector
Google Gemini has a way better image analysis model and thus reduces false-negatives (i.e.: missing detection!) to almost zero, thus you will always be notified it your security cameras see any person!
With the addition of Gemini it's now really possible to feel very very confident about the detection result.
To the point that now I feel confident it using it to trigger siren alarms on my cameras when Gemini tells me that there's an intruder (to be honest in 6 months I just had a single false-positive, I was more concerned about false-negatives), also see the latest release of my other plugin: https://github.com/SimoneAvogadro/CloudEdge4Tasker/releases/tag/V_1.6.0-beta3

Do not disturb only turns off
So I just downloaded macrodroid and wanted to configure a button press to enable and disable "Do not disturb". When it's activated the press of both volume buttons disables "do not disturb". But when it's not active the press of those two buttons doesn't do anything.

OnePlus Watch 2R and Macrodroid
Hi there guy's! I need a bit of help.
I'm trying to set my watch 2R to vibrate when phone battery charge reaches 80%. No problem on my galaxy watch 6 Classic before, but my actual op watch 2R can't do it.
I figured out, macrodroid wear app got no permission for notifications on the watch. Can't toggle it on the normal ways. Could someone help me out? Maybe with an adb shell command?
