Popup sms notifier via tasker scene

Popup sms notifier via tasker scene

in my previous posts, i have mentioned that it is not significant to make popup sms notifier via tasker scene, cause it could only display 1 sms message(latest or oldest) which is not capable to deal with multiple situations.

however, during these days, i did discover a workaround which could fix this problem.

after done with my instructions below, you will be able to check every incoming unread sms messages just within 1 scene by pressing "next" or "previous" button, of course you will still need to activate another scene to fulfill the reply job which gives you full sceen input layout.

wondering how?

no rush, please read on.

please excuse me if you feel it is sorta messy below. let us consider it is a nice testing for your DIY ability.

Tasker scene 1: (Popup sms notifier)

you may now add an image element to the any position you prefer within the scene, you may pick a picture as the default image if the sender doesn't have a contact photo in the contacts database.

previous, next, close, mark as read, delete, reply, buttons.

and the message body text viewer( you better choose text editor element instead, cause it could give you the drawable ability to pull up and down to see the full message if it is pretty long enough.)


Tasker scene 2: (Popup reply)

it could much easier to create this scene since you have got skillful of creating the 1st one. so, i guess i don't need to say too much about how to.
