Popup Message trigger
<pre class="header-style">The Popup Message trigger fires when a popup message (Toast) is displayed on the device. Toast messages are the small, temporary popup notifications that appear at the bottom of the screen and automatically disappear after a few seconds. This trigger allows you to react to these system and app notifications.</pre>
''' Options '''
''' Text Matching '''
* '''Text to Match''' - Enter the text that must appear in the popup message for the trigger to fire
''' Application Filter '''
* '''All Applications''' - React to popup messages from any app
* '''Select Applications''' - Only react to popup messages from specific selected apps
''' Matching Options '''
* '''Enable regular expression matching''' - Use regex syntax for pattern matching
* '''Ignore case''' - Perform case-insensitive matching (disabled when regex is enabled)
''' Examples '''
''Example 1: Log when Wi-Fi is connected''
<pre class="trigger-style">Triggers
Popup Message: "Connected to" (All Applications)</pre>
<pre class="action-style">Actions
System Log: Wi-Fi connection detected via toast</pre>
''Example 2: React to specific app notifications''
<pre class="trigger-style">Triggers
Popup Message: "Download complete" (Browser app)</pre>
<pre class="action-style">Actions

Notification: Your download is ready</pre>
''' Requirements '''
* This trigger requires Accessibility Service to be enabled for MacroDroid
''' Notes '''
* Toast messages are different from standard notifications - they are brief popup messages that appear temporarily on screen
* Not all apps use Toast messages; some use custom popups that may not be detected
* This trigger captures the text content of Toast messages as they appear
* Magic text can be used in the text matching field
* If no applications are selected, the trigger will monitor all apps
* The accessibility service must be enabled and running for this trigger to work
