Description
UDP Sender is a simple application to allow sending UDP packets either directly or, as I use it, by acting as a plugin for Tasker/Locale.
It is completely free, no ads are used. Please do rate/review it if you find it useful.
If you encounter any Issues please log them on Github (via https://github.com/hastarin/android-udpsender/issues) rather than giving poor reviews!
For apps not supporting the Tasker/Locale plugin format you can use an implicit Intent Intent.ACTION_SENDTO with a udp://host:port/data format URI to send packets.
I'm using it to control my lights from Limitless Led (http://www.limitlessled.com/ aka Mi-Light / Easybulb) via the Wi-Fi bridge and have included a couple of screenshots of the custom Tasker Scene I'm using. I use this scene along with gestures in my launcher to provide quick control of my lights.
Source code and more information, including the Tasker project shown, is available on Github: http://hastarin.github.io/android-udpsender/

★★★★★
Works great Using it to send strings to my arduino Ethernet shield! Can feed my fish by sending certain characters. Very simple compared to Linux terminal command
★★★★★
Perfect for Mi Light / Easy Bulb etc. Using this to control my lights through Tasker. Works as advertised, sends UDP packets with the specified hex values. Seems reliable (as reliable as UDP can be...) and simple. Very happy with it.
★★☆☆☆
Poor functionality 1. Lacks TCP support. 2. Lacks waiting for a response. 3. Due to binding input fields to the data types, one can't use Tasker variables for IP, port and Hex message, when calling this app as a plug-in for Tasker. Without Tasker variables support this addon becomes semi useless.
★★☆☆☆
Just installed on Pixel4 and I don't see any other screens that listed here, especially those customized with lights, bath, etc. If they're there, then I can't figure out how to get there. Seems like unfinished product.
