Plyer Module Text-To-Speech, Vibration, Battery Tutorial | Python Cross-Platform App Development

[@erik-sandberg]

Quick reminder - If you're working on Android and you want to get battery info or access the vibrator, you need to add the `BATTERY_STATS` or `VIBRATE` respectively.

Hey, would you mind doing a tutorial about kivy.garden mapview making an offline map. You doing a great job keep up!.

[@erik-sandberg]

@@stephenkinyanjui3748 I'm using a MapView for one of my bigger projects right now, so yes, sometime in the future I'll have to make a tutorial for it :) I don't use it offline though. Probably what you'd have to do is cache a bunch of map tiles and ship it with your app.

hey how can we chane the voice of tts?

[@tahep3906]

thanks for this very helpful video, day by day I realize how powerful language Python is with wonderful packages

[@MikeDest]

Love these tutorials! Going to start playing with Kivy.

[@ludwighurtado1719]

Yo mucho love for all your Kivy vids! Put all platforms. Kivy is that versátile!

[@JoelGGuitarist]

These tutorials are amazing! I have been learning so much about using the MD interface. Do have any plans for a tutorial on reading live sensor values in the future?

[@erik-sandberg]

Thank you! Glad you are learning a lot :) That would be a fun topic to cover, but there is so much to do before that! Would like to in the future. You can use your phone as a sensor though using other parts of the plyer module ;)

Hi, Erik I am trying to scan wifi devices using plyer but Iam getting this error TypeError: _start_scanning() got an unexpected keyword argument 'interface' please help with this Iam trying to build an app which scans wifi networks and connect to them

[@acusticaypsicoacustica1472]

Hello Erik! Thanks for this and all yout videos! I am working in a speech recognition project. I've seen that SR provided by plyer works on android only for now. Do you know a way of using this feature in iOS, coding on python and using kivy? Thanks!!!

[@erik-sandberg]

I don't know if it works on iOS at the moment -- I wouldn't be too surprised if it wasn't supported currently. Sorry I can't be of more help!

[@tech__education2620]

my curiosity is aiming to know if is there any android version that was made with kivy framework and already deployed on market ?am ask cu i wanna build with kivy as well????

[@erik-sandberg]

Do you mean any android apps that have been built with Kivy?

[@tech__education2620]

@@erik-sandberg yes exactly

[@erik-sandberg]

@@tech__education2620 Yes, there are absolutely apps made with Kivy on the Google Play Store! The first one that comes to my mind is called "Fin Aquatic Rentals", it lets you scan QR codes on special surfboards to rent them in California. Check it out: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fin_aquatic_rentals.fin_aquatic_rentals.fin_aquatic_rentals.fin_aquatic_rentals&hl=en_US It's also on the Apple App Store: apps.apple.com/us/app/fin-aquatic-rentals/id1435736012 There is also a longer list of published apps here, but it isn't updated very often as it's hard to keep track of what people are doing: github.com/kivy/kivy/wiki/List-of-Kivy-Projects

how to use android module for permissions

[@sksahil4374]

hey ...is there any way to transmit data via Bluetooth by plyer?

[@erik-sandberg]

plyer does state that it can do Bluetooth, but only for Android and MacOS systems. I haven't tried working with it before. If you are trying to communicate wirelessly between two devices running python though, you can do so using the socket or twisted modules, both have been successful for me on iOS. Plyer's documentation shows the capabilities on all platforms: github.com/kivy/plyer

[@dhrmarajun2406]

Why do I get notImplemented error

[@acusticaypsicoacustica1472]

I am on ubuntu and I have the same problem with tts. It means that the system (ubuntu in my case) does not have the tts activated so plyer cant read it. I am trying to solve it but I was able to yet

[@ЕгорПономарёв-п9х]
