Have a look at this video

@sdetweil yes watch is a mic.

Tasker can get the data from alexa or google or its own assistant autovoice. It then inputs into the spreadsheet, which the MMM can read.

I dont own an alexa but you can use alexa app on your phone to do it. I have successfully added from google on phone, google mini and watch.

You can also just add to the google sheets on your phone or pc but its nice to have voice integration. With the endless possibilities that tasker offers the world is your oyster.

Hi All

i just wanted to share the system i am using and hope it helps others.

Lets start with what i can do.

• Click button on watch.

say “add bananas to shopping”…then bananas appears on my shopping list on mirror.
say “delete crisps from shopping” this takes crisps of my mirror.
say “add mot car to memos” and guess what, mot appears in my memo list.

no for a trick shot

say “add jcb to my jobs” . This displays jcb in my diary with the mileage back to my house. This helps me do a time sheet as i never remember where i have worked by the time its time sheet day.

say " message mirror ill be back home at 5" this displays the message at the bottom for my wife to read. I also leave little notes for the kids.

so this is how its done.

the module used for each one is googlesheets link text amazing module thanks Ryan.

my watch, a fossil wear os , talks to my phone via tasker ( im assuming you all have androids and therefore have tasker if not stop reading this and install tasker. )

so i use autovoice (tasker addon) get message from voice on my watch using add %item to %sheet . this picks up the two variables and looks for a sheet based on the %sheet variable and then adds %item.

The same goes for delete and message

This is picked up by autosheets(tasker addon) that can enter data into a google sheet. It looks for a sheet named %sheet and adds %item.

This then displays on mirror. simple

The delete and the message display works in exactly the same way. For the message to work i just display the top cell A1.

The mileage calculation is done in tasker and uses a google distance api, tofind a pre determind location , my house and the location of my current gps and find the route. This is then saved in a spreadsheet.

this can be updated from any google or alexa device. if you have any questions please ask. unless its about using it on an iphone, why would you have an iphone. :-)

Hi all. I looked at a magicmirror setup a while ago. Being quite handy I was up and running and modding the configuration immediately. As I was playing I thought, and this is the question

Why not display a Web page instead of magicmirror?

I a mad, has this been suggested before. What am I missing? Don’t get me wrong I love the mm but surely a custom Web page can offer more module. Would love to hear everybody’s thoughts. Pros and cons

Now for hardware,

I have recently discovered spray mirror. An aerosol can you can spray on glass. When you have finished the opposite side becomes a mirror.
Has anyone tried this yet? I realise it would not be a front surface mirror but as you control the amount of coats, then maybe you can control the visibility of the screen.
Has anyone tried this yet?
It could be a cheap alternative that still has glass results.

This is a great forum and I’ve seen some amazing mirrors.

Thanks for reading and I hope to have a chat soon
