[Question] Screen pixel color detection

Hello Taskers!

I'm a passionate AutoIt user for many years (an amazing automation/scripting language for Windows).

One of the most powerful functions of AutoIt is the possibility to detect screens by pixel color, because as we all know, some developers try hard to hide information from automation tools, like disguising screens with text as actually images, and that very particular feature makes AutoIt invincible in this war, because it can detect even fullscreen games with this wonderful function.

Tasker has a native Get Pixel Colors action, and AutoInput plugin has a similar action, but both require an image file.

That said, my question is:

Is there some sort of limitation in Android API to prevent get screen pixel color in real time?

If possible, that would make a sea of possibilities in Tasker, which is already the most amazing app for Android.

Thanks in advance!

You can use the Take Screenshot action followed by the Get Pixel Colors action to get the color of a pixel on the current screen :)
