Install Guide

Bluelink Scriptable is a “scriptable app”. Its written in Javascript and runs within the scriptable IOS app. Using scriptable meant a vastly reduced amount of development time was required, and no pesky app store rejections

As such, installation is a couple more test than just “install an app”. However once installed the app will prompt and auto-install new versions as they are released!.

Install Steps

Step 1: Install the scriptable app and open it.

Step 2: Download the latest egmp-bluelink.js file using your iPhone.

Step 3: Using the IOS Apple Files app, move the egmp-bluelink.js file from the Downloads directory into the “iCloud Drive” -> “Scriptable” directory.

Step 4: Open the scriptable app and choose “egmp-bluelink”. This launches the app for the first time and a settings screen will popup asking you to fill in your Bluelink login credentials, and set your preferences.

Note: Your Bluelink credentials are securely kept on your IOS keychain, the bluelink scriptable app never sends your credentials to anywhere except the Bluelink API, just like the offical app.

Step 5: Once you enter your credentials and press “Save” the app will close. Click on “egmp-bluelink” again and the app will open and be available for use.

Step 6: Create a new widget on your homescreen or lockscrren . See the apple guide if you need help. The Widget Page shows the available widgets to choose from

When configuring the widget, make sure you:

  • Choose “Scriptable” from the list of widgets
  • Choose the medium size (the only one supported)
  • Click on the widget on your homescreen to configure it.
  • For “Script” choose egmp-bluelink
  • For “When Interacting” choose Run Script

Step 7: (Optional but Recommended) Continue to install the Siri IOS Shortcuts and the Control Center controls

Thats it your done. Enjoy bluelink-scriptable!
