Description: Ever get that text asking you to let someone know when you've made it home safely? Ever forgot and felt bad? Well, set this up, and anytime someone texts you using the words "text" and "home", you will be presented with a pop up reminder once you arrive. If you click yes, they will receive an "I'm home!" text. If you click no (maybe it's a stalker), they will get nothing. This supports up to 3 recipients. If you want more, add them, if you want less, feel free to simplify.
For this function, you will need:
- An Android phone
- Tasker
- Profiles: Home Text and Rec Text Home
- These profiles call on the following Tasks (Descriptions below):
-
-
-
- HTVaret
- HTask
- Go Ahead
- HTvarreset
- HTvarreset2
- HTvarreset3
- Home Text
-
-
-
In order for this to work, follow these steps when you are at home:
click on the "Cell Near" context under the "Home Text" profile.
- Click Edit.
- Under "Cell Tower / Last Signal", delete that text
- Click Scan.
- When one or two towers are listed, click stop
- Click Done.

I traded the Cell near context for wifi near context. I only have one cell tower near me that I know of anyway, so I added my home wifi for the wifi near context.
to stop anyone from activating this while I was at home, I made the rec txt home profile only activate when I wasn't near my wifi. (near wifi inverted).
