Feature request to restart accessibility services automatically when it will malfunctioning

Hey Tasker founder, sometimes it happens that the accessibility permission of an app remains turned on, but it doesn't work. An error message appears stating that 'this service is malfunctioning.' Also, you mentioned an update from nine months ago that if someone turns off accessibility for any app, it will automatically turn back on. However, in my Android system, the accessibility permission of an app stays turned on, but it doesn't work, and I keep getting the 'this service is malfunctioning' error. Tasker doesn't seem to be aware of this issue because it is designed to function when the accessibility toggle button is turned off then it turns on it back, but here, in my case it remains on. The accessibility permission of an app is turned on, but the service doesn't work. Is it possible for you to introduce a feature like the one you introduced earlier, where when accessibility is turned off, it automatically turns back on using ADB? Similarly, if an accessibility app malfunctions, Tasker could turn it off and then turn it back on to restart its accessibility Service again. Please consider implementing this functionality. 😊🤞" please look at screenshot for better understanding of my problem.

Hi. Tasker should already detect and re-enable those services. Did you try the "Keep Accessibility Running" option for that service yet?
