We need the ability to allow more of the Tasker actions to use more variables like Torch, Beep, ect....

For example:

• Using a variable to turn on the Torch using True or False
• Variables for Beep to input the parameters like Duration and Frequency

I believe having alot more Actions to optionally use Variables would allow users have ALOT more fine control with their scripts/tasks

I am trying to create a child app that will do some action on event but found that while it works in Tasker, exporting and installing it as a child app doesn't.

I am on a Samsung Galaxy S24.

See sample Tasker project below. It is supposed to flash a message when we enter/exit chrome, or if we cover/uncover the light sensor.

Hi,

I use the Taskernet profile "Turn Off Bluetooth If No Device Connected" but it only activates once, even if it is a state and not an event. But I (finally) found a way to trigger the BT while driving, and this by creating a profile that activates when notified by an app (Radardroid, tasker plugin) which itself starts by detecting the activity driving. The problem is that once arrived, it continues to activate and therefore turn on the BT (bug in the Radardroid service perhaps). I therefore want to create a profile like that of the Taskernet but which

im in china, i have google play store but only works while on vpn, google is banned here. i want to try tasker for first time, there is a 7 days trial. I downloaded the apk from here but says sorry tasker cant be used until you purchase it from google play, how do i use the 7 days trial?

Hello, I just purchased and installed Tasker on my Lenovo tablet and I can’t get past the “Data Access and Collection in Tasker” screen. There is no buttons, no arrow to go back, no way off the screen. I’ve zoomed out the screen to its smallest and still nothing. Is there a way to get out of this? I just paid for the app.

If the "Full screen apps'  in the the display options is there that mean full immersive mode  is supported, is it possible to "Inject any(all) apps into this list using Tasker?

For me full immersive mode is the "The Holy Grail".

keep up the awesome work!!!!

 Hi DEV joaomgcd,

It's possible to implement on Autosheets plugin the possibility to "Add/Get/Update Image" on the cells? 😇🙏

That would have a great usage to automate even more the way we lead with Google Sheets.

Thanks in advance for your support and attention on such forum with this dimension, keep it up, 🙏🙌

Tasker currently has state change to detect Headset Plugged, and BT connect/disconnect.

However recent versions of Android (and some apps e.g. Pocket Casts) provide an ability to show/change audio output without connecting/disconnecting e.g. BT device is connected, can change to internal speaker, or with 2 BT devices connected can switch between them.

Therefore I'd like an event/state change to detect when audio output changes - perhaps with 2 associated variables: audio output (i.e. Speaker/BT/Plugged headset) and device name (to allow trigger only for specific audio output e.g. Car).

I currently do this using logcat entries, however this is device/phone specific

When using the contact via app action, it asks for the contact name rather then the number. In cases of contacts with multiple numbers, it only uses the first number (i.e. if a contact has two numbers beginning with 7, and the second with 8, it will use the first number). There's no option to change that setting, so I was hoping you could add an option to choose the number.

On Android 8 and later location is needed for certain actions in tasker.

For example profile with state WiFi Near cannot be run if location is set to off on device.

Tasker can change location setting between off/device only/battery saving/high accuracy.

As far as I know there really is no way (since profiles cannot be run manually) to create task that enables location for that brief moment some profile requiring it to work needs it.

Suggestion:

Add option to profile preferences to set desired location mode for profiles that need location to be enabled. This way the profile itself would

See title. I see that in other issues that something in the detection has changed. Well, apparently it's not working. Revert it.

Can't get my £3.09 back despite "free trial" promise 🤔

I thought I posted this a little while ago but I'm not sure if it was actually posted/visible so I'm trying again.

I do NOT have "lock on startup" enabled.

I have several projects. A few of them are locked with the lock code, whole others (including home) are not.

If I am in one of the locked projects, and then leave or close the app, then when I next open the app, it starts up in that project, not home - which is fine. But because it is a locked project, I am naturally prompted for the lock code.

Just purchased tasker for my old Samsung Galagy Note 10.1 tablet on Android version 5.1.1

Installed fine, but after launching, I can not find a way to get past the initial Data Access screen.  There are no buttons anywhere to move forward.  

Application manager shows it to be version 6.2.22

Any help appreciated 

Thanks

Hello Tasker Community,

1. Synchronous "Perform Task" Option: It would be beneficial to have a synchronous version of the "Perform Task" action in JavaScript. This would be particularly useful when we need to wait for a task to complete before proceeding.

2. Plugin Compatibility in JavaScript: Exploring ways to improve plugin compatibility with JavaScript actions, such as AutoInput plugins, could open up new possibilities for automation.

3. Update JavaScript Library: Updating the JavaScript library to include all native actions would help streamline JavaScript usage within Tasker.

4. Logging JavaScript Console Output: A feature to log JavaScript console output to a file would be handy

After upgrade to 6.2 the MQTT Client -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.dc297.mqttclpro&hl=en_US

not work correctly with tasker for the "publish MQTT".

Downgrading to the 6.1 all works fine.

'Loading Tasker'

I'm currently experiencing an issue with Tasker on my Android 9 car unit. The app gets stuck on the 'Loading Tasker' screen and doesn't proceed further. My car unit runs on Android 9

I've tried restarting the device, clearing the app cache, and even uninstalling and reinstalling Tasker, but the issue persists.

Right now when a task get stopped by an error, the progress dialog started by the task will continue to show.

So adding a feature like, 'Destroy when the task fails/stops' will help to recognize that the task failed when not running from UI.

Based on the discussion here I would like to request this new feature for Tasker.
