I really just have a question... I would like to use this to trigger actions like setting my phone to vibrate vs full on sound depending on where I am in my house. If like to get some sort of BT chips (like a chipolo or Tile) to place around the house rather than tying it to my laptop. Something battery operated, and hopefully field-replaceable or rechargable batteries. Something cheap so i can get 3 or 4 w/o spending a ton. The shorter the range, the better. Any suggestions?

This was working until recently. Now it never triggers Tasker to say I'm no longer near that device.

doesn't work reliably and without possibility to set any real settings. Is set as enabled even though certain devices isn't near at all.

Found weird issues on one of my devices, but works on others. Good work. Works for most situations.

Unreliable. It is saying Tasker that I'm connected to a Bluetooth device after disconnection.

Works great for me. Does exactly what I wanted. Nologer having the pesky intermitant problem where my phone would sometimes connect to my device as phone audio only when I primarily use it for media audio. Well worth the 1.50 euros to fix that issue.

About this app

Bluetooth Detection is an add-on app for Tasker or Locale that lets you set conditions based on connected or nearby Bluetooth devices.



Please note: this is a plug-in. You MUST have either Locale or Tasker installed for this to work. It is built as a plug-in for either of these, and will never function on its own. If you don't understand what Locale or Tasker are, then please do not install this plug-in.



When you use Bluetooth Detection within Tasker or Locale, you can create a profile that lets you act upon Bluetooth connections or nearby devices. For example, you can use Locale to start playing music when a connection is made to your car's Bluetooth audio profile, or enable work mode when near your work laptop.



Tasker users might ask, "So what makes this different from the native functionality in Tasker?" The answer is mainly "ease of use" - not everyone wants to type in a MAC ID :). But there are also some features that I think are unique. Some examples: you can select class of device, so that (for instance) any A2DP connection triggers a task, or you can specify that you only care about a connection to your car's BT when it's the Hands-Free profile. You can also set a delay on unsetting the condition, and all of this is done in a very user-friendly interface. And you also get a local Tasker Variable with the name of the last connected device.



Note for Tasker Users: Once installed, you can find Bluetooth Detection by going to Profiles, and adding a "State" condition. Within the pop-up that appears, you will see a button labeled "Plugin." Tap that, and you will see "Bluetooth Detection."

Has it really been almost 2 YEARS since the last update?! Wow, sorry about that.

This release is really just to fix a couple crashes - I'm working on something bigger. When I'm nearing completion, there will be an announcement in the app, so remember to open the app occasionally so you see the note.

Note: If you are on a rooted device running Android 4.4.2, you might want to pass on this update. I'll update once Google fixes their support library.
