    Append prefix to extras variables for Intent Received trigger

    Peter Gates · 0 · Posted

    Tasker automatically creates variables for the extras in an Intent Received trigger, but those variable names can (rarely) conflict with existing Tasker variables:

    https://groups.google.com/g/tasker/c/k03Lw8tGSHA

    Giving an option to add a prefix to the extras' variable names, like in the Get Calendar Events action, would fix this issue without impacting the functionality of existing tasks, e.g. the conflicting %priority extra could be changed to %ntfy_priority.

    Cell Near cannot scan for 5G SA towers

    lexiconart · 0 · Posted

    I have several old profiles set up with Cell Near as a trigger, and have never had an issue with them until recently, when my evening profiles failed to trigger (the morning ones involving Cell Near triggered perfectly, and that was the last day any Cell Near profiles worked).

    While troubleshooting, I realized that my carrier finally activated 5G Stand Alone (maybe part of the 2G/3G shutdown?). As a result, Tasker is unable to use Cell Near to scan these new cell IDs, the page remains blank even after scanning for 10+ minutes.

    Does anyone know how to force Cell

    Capture outgoing SMS

    Lee Rogers · 0 · Posted

    Hey there.  It seems that Tasker can see incoming SMS messages but doesn't see outgoing SMS.  I currently have the IFTTT app installed which does it, seems like its possible somewhere.  Can this feature be explored?

    Thanks!

    Enhancement: Add Task Running Time To A New %TRUN Output

    KyleK29 · 0 · Posted

    Tasks getting stuck is a common problem (often from plugins that don't timeout, etc.) and there isn't a current global option to kill a task that is stuck. Although you can setup timers using that Timer project that is floating around, I think another method would be to add another %TRUN variable as %TRUNT (Tasks Running w/Time). It would receive the same data as %TRUN, except it would have the current (at reading of the %TRUNT state) elapsed task times (visible in the Running Tasks view).

    This would allow users to more easily monitor %TRUNT variable (either on a timed

    Enhancement: Flash (Tasker Layout) Interaction Variable

    KyleK29 · 0 · Posted

    Right now the Flash Notices with "Tasker Layout" are pretty powerful; I use them basically everywhere as a cheap way to get user notices/interactions and have some aesthetic flexibility.

    One enhancement I'd like to suggest is to add a special variable that gets passed to the "Perform Task" option for how it was dismissed, alongside adding swipe up/down/left/right and click/long-click detection.

    *Note: Might need a bool checkbox to "enable gesture swipes" since some users may not want swiping enabled for some notices.

    The various gestures would all act like the current "dismiss", except they'd pass a "dismiss method" variable.

    We should be able to import and export APK signing keys in tasker.

    If we have our own key, we want to use it both in tasker and android studio.

    Update Sqlite Version

    James · 0 · Posted

    My next feature request is to update the sqlite version in the sql query action. I would like to use many of the date time functions only available in later versions.

    When I query "SELECT sqlite_version();" it outputs "3.39.2

    Compare the two user guides' pages on date and time functions:

    [3.39.2 - September 2022](https://web.archive.org/web/20220902005517/https://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html)

    [3.53.0 - Latest Version ](https://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html)

    The latest version has the timediff function that is missing from the earlier one. It also has 14 more substitutions and 9 more modifiers. Those would be very useful for a few of my projects. 

    Thanks!

    Feature Request: Back Navigation Button in Tasker's Main Menu

    Rashad Pitsenbarger · 0 · Posted

    Hi João, per your reply on reddit to add a ticker here... I am hoping you would consider extending the back button navigation you introduced in Scenes v2 to the main Tasker navigation menu as well.

    Currently, navigating two or three levels deep into a submenu, only to realize you are in the wrong place, requires returning all the way to the three dots menu to start over. A small back button at each menu level would resolve this and meaningfully reduce friction for frequent users.

    Given that the component already exists in Scenes v2, this feels like a natural

    Icon packs in Image picker

    A.C. · 0 · Posted

    When some apps (KWGT is one such example) need to prompt the user to select an image, installed icon packs (as well as other image sources like gallery apps) show up in the Open from menu. If the user selects one, he can search through the icon pack to select any icon in it as an image.

    However, when Tasker needs the user to select an image, the resulting file picker does not contain image sources in the Open from view. It's just a plain file picker.

    As it is now, user must extract icons from packs and place the

    Add Ability to Add Task Callers to Android Copy/Paste Menu

    KyleK29 · 1 · Last reply by Cerberus

    This is one area of Android I don't think Tasker has hooked into, infact many apps don't seem to hook into it, and I only became aware it was possible when I saw Anki do it (screenshot below). The menu I'm talking about is the selected text long press contextual menu that often has Copy/Paste/SelectAll (and occasionally Define) in it. This would serve as a quick way to copy text to a specific Task you want to use to process said test.

    A Google searched yielded this: Google Copy/Paste Menu

    I would suspect that there might be a way for Tasker

    Profile doesn't work after restart

    Nikola Rakewo · 3 · Last reply by Nikola Rakewo

    I have a profile that doesn't work after a restart. The only way to get it working again is to disable the profile and then re-enable it. Since I'm using Tasker on my car's Android stereo, I essentially have to do this every time I start my car up again.

    What the profile does is that when I have music playing, a flash notification pops up that identifies the title, artist, and album art of the track.

    I have given Tasker all possible permissions and it doesn't help. There is no battery optimizations on my device for Tasker.

    Dedicated Log View for Individual Tasks or Profiles

    S A · 1 · Last reply by KyleK29

    Long-press a task or profile → open menu → View Log.

    The current Run Log is powerful but becomes hard to read with many automations running. Seeing only that specific task or profile's past runs would make debugging faster, clearer, and more approachable while keeping the global Run Log unchanged.

    Disclose everything that is included during export via taskernet and make it less dubious to export.

    aasswwddd · 0 · Posted

    The current tasker share activity com.joaomgcd.taskerm.datashare.export.ShareDataConfig doesn't provide any information about what's included during export.

    Tasker will by default include everything that is included in the project. Even those who doesn't belong to the project, which the user may not want to share to begin with. 

    While I must acknowledge that including them may be very convenient to ensure the export works properly, it looks dubious to me that the user is not informed at all about this. Furthermore the default behaviour is that we have to back out to export. Which is not the usual way to handle confirmation.

    Quick Settings Tile icon appears lower resolution

    dusan236 · 0 · Posted

    I’ve noticed an inconsistency in icon rendering quality when using a Task as a Quick Settings (QS) tile.

    When I set a custom icon for the entire Task and then assign that Task as a QS tile, the icon appears sharp and high resolution in the Quick Settings panel.

    However, when I set the icon using the “Set Up Quick Setting Tile” action inside the Task, the same icon appears noticeably lower resolution (blurred/less sharp).

    I am using 96x96 PNGs in both cases.

    Tasker doesnt randomly select image

    freedomplayer95 · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I set up tasker so every 4 minuted it chooses a random folder from a specific director and then randomly chooses an image from that folder and sends it to klwp to set it up as wallpaper. But i noticed that some images get selected waaaaay to often. This should be random but from a folder that contains 1000 images i got 1 image twice already in the last hours. Yesterday i even got an image twice in 8 minutes from a folder that has almost 1500 images in it.

    I start to think that tasker doesnt look at all

    Issue with Javascriptlet when processing JSON Data

    Productivity · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    At te moment, the javascriptlet is failing when it is used to process or filter data from a JSON. While it works correctly for other use cases, it does not behave as expected when handling JSON data, resulting in no output. This indicates that the issue is related specifically to how the javascriptlet processes JSON, rather than to the data itself

    Notify action live update issue on lock screen / AOD

    MichiGigaByte · 0 · Posted

    Hello,

    I'm writing to report an issue with the "Notify Live Update" action on my Google Pixel 10 Pro. Currently, the notification content is not appearing on the lock screen or the always-on display.

    I believe this is due to the "Show sensitive content on lock screen" setting being disabled.

    Would it be possible to add a checkbox on the action that allows users to specify whether a particular notification's content should be treated as sensitive or not?

    I have attached screenshots of my lock screen both with and without the sensitive content setting enabled for reference.
