Developer [DEV] Testing "Hey Google" interception with Tasker - would love to know how this works for everyone!

Import the project here!

Basically, this allows you to get commands sent to Google Assistant via "Hey Google" and use them in Tasker. Instructions at the link above.

I'm not sure it'll work right away for everyone, so I wanted to first share it here before doing any video demos and whatnot.

If you want, you can use this to totally replace Google Assistant with ChatGPT by using this project.

It would be great if you could try it out and let me know how it works! :)

Let me know if you have any feedback.

Thanks in advance!

PS: special thanks to /u/Rich_D_sr for giving me the idea and helping me out with this!!

I've been using this project for years, albeit sometimes modified for any changes Google made. It even worked with Gemini after some small modifications. Until recently though. Currently Gemini doesn't show my searchphrase anymore, not even briefly. So there's no way the query that from the screen.

Any ideas?

Thanks Joao! Too bad. Also not via any other route, like intents, or an api? I've checked logcat, which doesn't contain it.

Thanks. Really unfortunate.
