The voice control does not work

Post by Hollyvals »

Hello, I've been trying for about 30 minutes to get the software to work with pushbullet but it doesn't work, I get this error message.
"Pushbullet request received - "To start the calculator" - no matching sentences found"

Can someone help me?

ps: I'm French, I understand English but I have configured the software and IFTTT in French.

I think it may just the way you set up your IFTTT applet and your Push2Run 'Listen for' phrase to break up the sentenace.

In English, if you look at Step 13 in the setup instructions ( https://push2run.com/setup_pushbullet.html ) it says to set up your IFTTT applet to be triggered on:

tell my computer to
ask my computer to
tell my PC to

so in each case, the trigger phrase ends with the word 'to'.

But above you wrote you are getting the message:

"Pushbullet request received - "To start the calculator" - no matching sentences found"

which means you did not include the word 'to' in the IFTTT applet nor the Push2Run 'Listen for' phrase.

so if you were using it In English just add the word 'to' in your IFTTT applet


Tell my computer to start the calculator
------------------------- ================

------- IFTTT applet 'What do you want to say'
===== Push2Run 'Listen for' phrase


In French you might have to handle this a bit differently

dire à mon ordinateur d'ouvrir la calculatrice
dire à mon ordinateur de baisser le volume
--------------------------- ================

------- IFTTT applet 'What do you want to say'
===== Push2Run 'Listen for' phrase

where you put the d' or the de in as part of the Push2Run 'Listen for' phrase.

I hope that explains it ok, please let me know if it helps.
