I just had an incredible idea that might be of interest to Tasker users, and would be of exceptional help to myself: Source control like you see in git.

Commit and Push: You could make changes to your Tasker project, commit and push those changes to a repo (say on github, or VSTS), and be able to revert those changes by reverting the commit. You'd be able to see what changed between commits.

Branches: In addition, being able to make "branches" to allow for further source control, (for testing, specific sets of features, etc). The ability to merge branches and

It would be handy to have Set Tasker Icon (either from the standard action or from JavaScript) accept a variable for the icon similar to how the Notify action (and AutoNotification action) can use a URI via the "android.resource" scheme. Some of my tasks are mainly a bunch of Set Tasker Icon actions, it'd be nice to use JavaScript to reduce them.

It would be great if we've a built-in integration with Xposed or Xposed module over basic android stuff. Such as detecting windows, connectivity even to execute tasker' tasks I'm using Xposed module to send terminal command to tasker to run the tasks and it is faster by Xposed.

Another speed example detecting apps or notifications is faster by Xposed framework.

And most of tasker users are having root access and Xposed both on their phones since with tasker we can build a huge projects and things getting complicated to launch Xposed Framework will sure help for speed or reducing resources

Would be nice if: 1. Checklist is properly resize able, not only the outer border. 2. Toggle ui only consist of Font and without the underline when on, and no need to have background as we can always add separate background just like Text element. Thanks ...

Hello, 

When trying to use a 3rd party app in profiles or tasks that we don't have installed, it would be nice if when we click on it (red list item, because we don't have it on our device), if there was a popup with a link to the app on the play store that asked us if we wanted to go there to download it. 

Thanks! 

in call event state, it sould be no matter in which direction the call is to get its external participiant.

why at first find out, in which direction the call is and then use "called name" and "called num" or "caller name" and "caller num"??

it would be much better, when the global variables are:

%EXT_NAME %EXT_NUM %CALL_DIRECTION %CALL_DURATION %CALL_ANSWER_DATE %CALL_ANSWER_TIME %LOCAL_NUM for dual sim

it would be very cool, when it is possible to use local variables from start task in exit task.

for example, in event state for "phone" -> "call" the global variable "caller name" and "caller number" can changed, when a second call event occurs. Without profile variables it is now not possible to save these values at call beginning and use it in the exit task

I would like an action to call Android's internal function of establishing Work Profile. I must be honest I do not know what it takes in terms of maintaining the profile, I imagine (all API calls into Android)

1. Create Profile
2. Delete Profile
3. Start Work Profile
4. Stop Work Profile

I have a problem with Tasker.I bought it about 8 months ago,with a Google Play gift card,and after I bought some plugins.After 4 month tasker said that the demo try is ended and you have to buy tasker or something like that.I searched a way to contact you,but I didn't find it and I forgot this think,but now that I have to use it for a project, I must have back Tasker or have back my money!!

Hi, I have an issue with the Outgoing Call state profile in Tasker as described below:

Issue Context:

I have created the following simple profile:

Profile Trigger >  Outgoing Call (found in State section)

Actions > Notify (text is "hey you are making a call to this person named %CNAME with number %CNUM)

Problem:

When I make an outgoing call, this profile worked perfectly. but thereafter no matter how many outgoing calls I make, it always displays the wrong caller data (triggers the action but %CNAME and %CNUM are still pointing to the very first caller data, meaning they're not

Hello Joao, I would like to request something...   Could you add something to filter listed apps in the 'List Apps' action (+ > App > List Apps), like filtering them manually using: pm list packages -3/-s?   Thanks!

I have already tried to search on internet, and I have seen that a similar problem has been reported, which has been directed to the use of the activity for airplane mode or for data connection,but at the moment I don't have any profile or activity, why does tasker keep asking me for root permissions every hour?

Tasker is very powerful now, but certainly there are still many tasks Tasker can't do. Such as using ffmpeg converting a video, compressing a png image, run a python script, rotate a video, download a youtube video, etc. 

It is so good that tasker can run Shell Code to use some command line tools that android supports. But the limitation is that android shell can not install  other powerful command line tools if you have no root permission. 

Yet, there is another app called Termux( a terminal tool ) can run many Command Line Tools , such as : FFmpeg,

"Choose a file" action, allowing users to actively choose a file and then let the task process the file. It may requires the system file chooser and wait till it return a file path and then store the path into a variable. 

Pop up a dialog, which has a list of blanks, and there are names and hints of the lists. Each blank indicates a value of a variable, when the lists are filled, and "OK" button are clicked, the value of the lists will be assigned to the corresponding variable.

There are some cases when we enable gps through apps for some time. So in that case when Gnss system stops i would like to turn off gps. 

In the Show Scene task, there's a dropdown list called Display As.

I would like an Activity option that allows me to show the status bar but not the nav bar.

Currently there's a "no nav" option but only with the status bar sap removed. Please could you add that option.

Thank you.

Я понимаю что эта мелочь не столь приоритетная над остальными планами, но я всё же надеюсь что когда-нибудь в ближайшем времени будет добавлена опция выбора из галереи изображений для уведомления. Очень этого не хватает чтобы пользоваться без стороннего плагина, который полностью на английском языке и ничего в нём не понятно как и что. Я с каждым обновлением приложения проверяю на доступность этой опции и надеюсь на её реализацию. Заранее огромнейшее спасибо

Update - Fix: check draw over top and change system settings in app info. If missing, give those permissions.

I'm going mad and can't pinpoint the issue.

Honor View 20, Magic 3.0.0, Android version 10.

I was ADB authorising Tasker, Join and Autovoice for Android 10 and since then my Android system switches the Keyboard input methods between my keyboard, Tasker and Join, making typing virtually impossible as the keyboard minimises every few seconds.

I have tried the basics of uninstalling, reinstalling, re-authorising, trying different keyboards installs but nothing holds. I can't find any other similar issues online so it must be something very specific I have done but not sure where to start. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
