The profile, in your hand
One profile per event type. Independent toggles.
Each Tasker profile is a self-contained trigger-plus-action. Toggle them on and off individually. Build one for daily check-ins (quiet vibration), one for missed days (loud + bypass DND), one for visit reminders (calendar add).
- Each profile has its own enable switch.
- Conditional actions based on time, location, battery, anything.
- Plugins extend reach to Bluetooth, NFC, voice, anywhere.
- Tasker scenes draw overlays without rooting the phone.
How to set it up
The high level. Full walkthrough in the help guide.
- 01Step 1 of 4
Install Tasker and HTTP Server Pro.
Both from the Play Store. HTTP Server Pro exposes a local HTTP listener that Tasker can react to.
- 02Step 2 of 4
Pick a relay route.
Either expose your phone via a Cloudflare Tunnel (free) or route via a small Vercel function. Direct webhooks from us to your phone require some bridge.
- 03Step 3 of 4
Create the Getwello webhook subscription.
Settings → Developer API → Webhooks. URL is your relay. Tick the events you want.
- 04Step 4 of 4
Build profiles in Tasker.
Trigger on incoming HTTP. Filter by event type. Take whatever action you want: vibration, notification, TTS, scene overlay, anything.
Frequently asked questions
Why use Tasker rather than the Getwello Android app's notifications?
Tasker lets you do anything Android exposes. Per-event vibration patterns, conditional actions based on time of day, integration with other phone state. Power-user only; most families don't need this.
Does Tasker accept webhooks?
Yes, via HTTP Request triggers in the AutoTools or Tasker:Net plugins. Or run a tiny HTTP server using Termux. The cleanest route is HTTP Server Pro, a £2 plugin that exposes a local listener.
Will it run in the background reliably?
Tasker runs as a foreground service on modern Android, which keeps it alive. Some manufacturer skins (Huawei, Xiaomi) are aggressive about background apps; configure battery exceptions for Tasker.
Can Tasker post in the Family Room?
Yes. Use the HTTP Request action with your Bearer API key to POST to /api/v1/circles/{id}/family-room. Trigger from a Tasker scene, a voice command via Google Assistant, anything.
Is it free?
Tasker is a £4 one-off Android app. Once installed, the integration is free. Some plugins (AutoTools, HTTP Server Pro) cost £2-3 each. Cheap overall.
Other integrations
Pair this with another.
Some families wire two or three at the same time. The webhook fans out, the API keys stay the same.
- PushoverSimpler power-user push.
- Home AssistantTalk to the whole house.
- TelegramMobile bot alternative.
- n8nSelf-hosted middleman.
