    I have more than one device near me with Google Now installed and they all light up when I say "OK Google." Can I use this to replace that on each device with a custom phrase for that device?

    Not directly no, sorry.
    You could use AutoVoice continuous to kinda do this, but it would eat up a lot of battery.

    Thanks for the reply. Could you tell how to kinda do it? 99% of the time my phone is plugged into one thing or another.

    You would turn on AutoVoice continuous and then have a Tasker profile that would react to the command you want and turn on the screen in the task with AutoInput for example :)

    Will do. Thanks.

    BTW is there any coherent and comprehensive resource that you know of to help with mastering Tasker? It's pretty clear that is a prerequisite to understanding your contributions. I don't find what the developer has provided to be of any value.
