After installing this profile you will be able to set an alarm that will play a song or playlist on Google Home.
**Required** Spotify Premium Account & Tasker. Also download the Spotify_Alarm.prf.xml.
Part 1:
1. Install and setup Tasker on your phone.
2. Open the Spotify app and find the song or playlist of your choice.
3. Click on the three vertical dots to the right of your song or playlist, then select “Share,” then “Copy Link” (you will make use of the URL in the next section).
4. Play the song to get access to the "Devices Available" setting at the bottom of the screen and select your Google Home. Exit Spotify.
Part 2:
1. Place the Spotify_Alarm.prf.xml file in your device’s Tasker/profiles folder (if these folders do not exist then create them).
2. Open Tasker and long-press “Profiles,” then select “Import” and import the xml file from Part 1.
3. Once imported press the Spotify Alarm profile to expand it and press the task portion of the profile (the section on the right hand side of the profile).
4. Next press "Browse URL" and copy the Spotify URL in the "URL" field. The start of the URL will begin with "https://open.spotify..." change it to "https://play.spotify..."
5. Back-out of Tasker to save the profile. Done!
You can now create an alarm on your phone using Google Now or by hand (set your alarm app to silent). The alarm will trigger your Spotify selection and cast it to GH. Enjoy!
***Important***
- Depending on your Android version, you must disable your lockscreen or Spotify will not auto-play, Set your lockscreen to “none.”
- Playing music on GH prior to your scheduled alarm will reset the Spotify cast device app setting back to "phone." Therefore set the Spotify app to play on GH just prior to going to bed to avoid this issue.
- Disable battery optimization for both Tasker and Spotify or your device may disable their service when idle.
