Trigger - Phone Service State

The trigger Phone Service State is executed when the device detects the specified state.

Warning: Some devices don't send the current service state to applications when the screen is turned off. You can periodically use the action Turn Screen On to mitigate this problem.

 

Examples:
  • Play a warning sound when no service is available.
Settings
SIM
The SIM card.
Phone Service State
In Service
Execute the flow when the telephony is back to regular operation.

Out of Service
Execute the flow when telephony becomes unavailable.

Emergency Only
Execute the flow when only emergency numbers can be called.

Power Off
Execute the flow when the radio is explicitly powered off.

Wake device
Whether the trigger should wake the CPU of the device every X minutes or not. Consumes more battery when a shorter time interval is chosen.
Turn screen on
Whether the display should be turned on briefly or not. This option increases battery consumption and should only be enabled when the values are not updated otherwise.
A variable is a container for a value that can be used in many actions and conditions to dynamically define a part of a text.
See action Script for a description.
