    How to bring Tasker logcat support to more devices

    Katare Dushyant · 0 · Posted

    Hii, in some devices (including mine Lenovo) Tasker can't detect logcat (it always shows no log captured) with READ_LOGS permission because device manufacturers modified the device in someway. Not any other app which relies on READ_LOGS permission can do it too but I found an App which reads logs with adb_wifi permission (adb tcpip 5555)

    So I'm wondering if Tasker can add it too.

    Additionally : could you bring back Android 6 support for logcat detection.

    This should only require a few changes to manifest and an additional 320x180 banner icon.

    app info action

    Takser v 5.11.14

    OnePlus 7T A10

    in attempting to get a list of current and recent apps using App Info action 'last(0:3)', tasker's package name will populate the return array if a scene has been shown. Is there a way to differentiate between scenes and the app itself? I would like for tasker app to show in array, just not for scenes.

    Changing the bin icon in 'Task Edit' to red background + white bin icon

    Baconfry · 0 · Posted

    Greetings all,

    When dragging Actions around in Task Edit, it took me a long while to notice that the (+) icon changes to the bin icon. Before I found this, I used to delete Actions by pressing using the "cut" function (still do now due to habit).

    Changing the bin icon colors to red background + white bin icon makes it more clear that the icon changes and that you can drag Actions there to delete them. Cheers!

    Pic attached for example.

    Variable cuts varible when storing read html

    Ville · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I use html request get to store data from https://sampo.thl.fi/pivot/prod/fi/epirapo/covid19case/fact_epirapo_covid19case.dimensions.json. When I store in to variable, it doesn't include it whole. Does tasker cut it partly? How to workaround it?

    Status for Variable Value Contexts

    Jim Becker · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Since Joao and others pointed out that we could use the Variable Value context for complex logic, I have converted several contexts to complex Variable Value contexts.

    One problem that I have is viewing the state of the individual logical operations in one Variable Value context.

    Please add an option to the context menu to view the current status of each operation. Highlight them green if true. Just like the overall status of the context.

    Add a way to escape vars for Tasker pattern matching

    Destroy666 · 1 · Last reply by Destroy666

    Escaping is pretty much a requirement for languages/syntaxes to work well. There's currently no way to escape special characters for Tasker pattern matching.

    I also know you can use regexes as a workaround but it's suboptimal if the matching should be indeed simple.

    Allow "Notify" action notification icons to be regular content URIs

    Destroy666 · 1 · Last reply by Destroy666

    Rather than just some sort of specific Tasker URIs, they should work with content and maybe file URIs.

    Stop action "with error" should let you choose error message

    Destroy666 · 0 · Posted

    Another simple suggestion that would make debugging easier. "With error", when ticked, should accept custom text that would get displayed as the error message in run log (or rather the one displayed when you open the app, nt sure what's this one called).

    Autocalendar action to delete upcoming notification times

    Sharif Salah · 0 · Posted

    I find the AutoCalendar plugin really useful - thanks as always João. I often use the delete event action to delete upcoming event(s) once I have retrieved the ID(s). It would be awesome if it were possible to add in an additional action which only deletes the upcoming notification time(s) that are associated with the event so that Google Calendar does not fire a notification for the event any more, but leaves the actual event intact in the calendar.

    Would that be possible do you think?

    Many thanks

    Hey,

    Would be great if a torch status profile could be added to allow actions to be triggered based on whether the torch status is on or off.

    Option to toggle Tasker's use of metered connections

    iodidi · 1 · Last reply by Kasdif

    An option in Tasker settings, that toggles whether Tasker itself can use metered network connections, could be very useful.

    So, if the option "Allow Tasker to use metered network connections" is in the off position, Tasker itself will only use non-metered networks.

    For instance, I have a profile that uses the 'GD Upload' action every other day to upload a backup file, which is about a gigabyte. Since my mobile data limit for the whole month is 1 gigabyte, if at the time of the upload there is some issue with my wifi connection, the upload will use up my

    Assistance Request event changes the current selected app

    lucatrv · 1 · Last reply by lucatrv

    As reported in the subject, if I associate a task to the Android "assist app" feature, when I run it the current selected app is changed (I guess the focus is given to Tasker itself, but I am not sure hot to verify it). To avoid this, I am currently using the "Home Button Launcher" app to run the task, instead of Tasker itself: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dynamicg.homebuttonlauncher

    Geohash as a Get Location return parameter

    Peter Howells · 1 · Last reply by Peter Howells

    A suggestion for an extra Get Location return parameter (or perhaps a Variable Convert function) is the geohash.

    As a usage example, I scrape weather forecasts from the UK Met Office website, which uses a geohash to specify a location (anywhere in the world as far as I can see). To do this I currently have to Get Location, feed the coordinates to the Geohash website, extract the geohash from the result and then feed that into the Met Office website before extracting the forecast data.

    It'd be nice to simplify the process.

    Turn OFF WiFi sporadically doesn't work

    Samuel Mateus · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Boas João,

    I've a very simple profile to turn OFF WIFI when I leave a certain location.

    Recently the action to turn OFF WiFi started to bug.

    Sometimes it runs as it should, sometimes runs but doesn't turn off WiFi (ExitERR on the LOG)

    I've the last version of Tasker (beta) + new tasker setting and both aren't battery optimized.

    Samsung S20 running on Android 11 with One UI 3.0

    I've posted on Reddit and there's at least 3 more persons that experience this bug. Link

    P.S: Just noticed that you released a new version of tasker settings 2 days ago
