Macro for assigning different ringtones to different SIM card

[cricetazio]

Hi all,
I'm pretty much new to the macrodroid world, and I'm moving the firs steps into that. I bought a brand new pixel 8 Pro and, with huge disappointment, I don't see any option for selecting different ringtones for the 2 Sims I have, one for my personal contacts and the second one for my business contracts.
So, what I'm trying to do (without any success so far) is to create a macro that automatically assing a different ringtone to incoming calls whether they're coming from SIM 1 or SIM 2. Is that possible? Anyone can help me with this?
I really appreciate your help. It's kinda crucial for me knowing whose calling me (personal or office) without looking at the phone.

If I remember correctly it's possible to see with magic text which SIM you are using then set the ringtone according to that.

You mean a macro that checks the text on the screen during a incoming calls and then changing the ringtone accordingly?

 

[Endercraft]

Yes

 

[cricetazio]

Yes

Thanks for now! I'll give it a try, it seems a pretty straightforward macro to create. I'll let you know.

 

[cricetazio]

Yes

one more question; do I have to create 2 separate macros, one for each sim?

you can use 2 macros, but with if conditions you might create it easily in one macro also. as long the condition of @Endercraft is true, i didn't check it.

I'm afraid it won't be possible: the only existing Magic Texts are {sim_operator_name} and {sim2_operator_name}. They are static, not dynamic...

As far as I remember it's a feature requested a long time ago but I think @MacroDroidDev answered it wasn't feasible...

This is what I've create and it doesn't seems to work. Please see screenshot. It's in Italian but I guess you can understand.

checking once again and the macro is working in the way that it changes the ringtones according to the macro, but it just changes the ringtones in the settings. first, it rings with the standard ringtone then it changes the ringtone with the rules of the macro. I think it's just a matter of timing...the phone starts ringing with the default ringtone, the macro checks the text on the screen, and then it changes the ringtones following the rules, but it's too late because the phone was already ringing...I'm not sure I'm clear enough

Makes sense, you can make screen content update 10 times per second but then battery life is worse.
I think you can change it with an action like trigger call incoming then change it to 0.1 with MacroDroid setting action then change it after call.

A little workaround could be to make a group of your business contacts who is using sim2
Then trigger on incoming call and play a sound
