    Convert regular variables to Task/Profile/Project variables and add indication they exist

    Moshe Siani · 1 · Last reply by KyleK29

    Convert regular variables to Task/Profile/Project variables - Something similar to if blocks.

    Having some kind of indication that there are variables Task/Profile/Project - Sometimes coming back to an old project you don't remember if you had your variables as a Task/Profile/Project.

    "Continue after error" checked by default for certain or all actions

    It would be really nice if we could default "continue after error" to be checked by default, either by action type or at least in general for all actions.

    Autoinput Actions not saving (Android)

    Alex · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi All, 

    Have a Samsung Fold 4, Android. 

    I'm trying to modify the existing 'text' element of an auto input (v1) click action in tasker but after I manually change the text and click back, the text field doesn't change.

    Easy input also does not work. On the Autoinput screen, I get this error message on the bottom 'Please touch tasker on this list'. 

    But there is no list. 

    When create a new autoinput action, the fields remain blank. 

    Tried Autoinput v2, but nothing saves there too.

    I've tried disabling and re-enabling accessibility and clearing data and cache.

    Autoinput actions not working on gemini settings/overview screen

    Nico · 0 · Posted

    Hi there,

    I have a task using autoinput to go into the settings of gemini and switch between hotword detection being on and off. For some reason this stopped working. It still opens the overview screen, but it does not execute any clicks or swipes to go to settings. Same problem with V1 and 2 of autoinput. And the same actions work in several other apps I have tried. And when I manually click on settings, the clicks on the next screen work again. Any ideas?

    Cheers. Nico

    Show Linked Tasks

    Viper21 · 0 · Posted

    I have some projects that have an complex connection of tasks that call other tasks, and sometimes this spans across multiple projects.

    So just like you have the "Show Linked Projects" action on each task, I would like a similar action that shows which other tasks are calling the selected task (i.e. tasks that call this task from the "Perform Task" action). 

    You could call this "Show Linked Tasks". :)

    I know this can be done from the search option by entering the name of the task, but this is cumbersome and shows a whole lot of other noise than

    A problem that has not been solved in 10 years.

    TaskerClub · 0 · Posted

    Hello! I beg you, please solve the problem with speech recognition, this problem has been around for 10 years and no one is talking about it. When I use recognition from Bluetooth headphones, the microphone of the headphones does not work, but the microphone of the phone, which makes it impossible to use such a profile when the phone is far away. This is not a problem with the headphones, I tried 15 from different brands and it's the same everywhere, which is interesting, everything works correctly with Google Assistant/Gemini. I tried AutoVoice, but it works unstable on Android 13.

    App blocked with Google tasks

    Sara · 0 · Posted

    Hi,

    I'm trying to get stuff set up with Google tasks, but I'm getting an error when I try to add the web service in autoweb, "This app is blocked. This app tried to access sensitive info in your Google Account. To keep your account safe, Google blocked this access"

    I've seen some people having the same problem with other Google stuff, but haven't found a fix for Tasks. Is there anything I can do?

    Fix scan media issues

    Alex Feldman · 1 · Last reply by bkevin Tillman

    There are two issues with the "Scan Media" task

    1. Scanning a Directory doesn't discover new media files in the directory
    2. Scanning a file takes too long (about 1 second per file).  This is a problem when looping over many files.

    Suggested fix options:

    1. Option to scan files asynchronously.  We don't need any output from the scan action to proceed
    2. Speed up synchronous file scan
    3. Fixing the directory scan to pick up new files inside as new media (e.g. by Google Photos)

    UI usability and readability improvements

    Senliast · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Currently, names of profiles, tasks, scenes and variables are cut off if they are too long. If there are many of them and you categorize them (for example with dashes in the name) - it becomes hard to differentiate between them, because you have to edit the name to read it fully. Therefore, i suggest to make them either running or wrap in multiple lines if too long (in all 4 tabs).

    Additionally, i suggest to put the values of variables under its names instead of right from it (on the "Vars" tab), because these can be long as well

    Create User Tasker actions with Java Code.

    Erik Gerardo · 1 · Last reply by Erik Gerardo

    With Java Code actions, the possibilities in Tasker are endless. I’ve been thinking about the reusability of some of my Tasker projects that rely on this action, and it would be great if we could create custom Tasker actions (similar to Flash or Notify) using the Java Code action. It would work much like what we can already do with AutoTools WebScreens.

    This would also be a great way to share complex tasks while providing an easy configuration method for non-advanced users.

    Please add support for OpenAI. I have some problems with the current AI options.

    1. Google Cloud Payment rejected my debit card.
    2. Open Router has very limited free tier.

    Open AI accepted the same debit card rejected by Google and the free tier credit is also far more generous than Open Router. People can opt in to give away their data as well to upscale the daily limit.

    This is just personal choice at this point but I like their dashboard and credits balance as well. I top up $5 into my balance and limit $1 for monthly usage. I never

    Notify action, perform an action when tapping instead of dismiss

    Bertie Beck · 1 · Last reply by Bertie Beck

    Tapping the notification created with the notify action dismisses it. An option to perform an action instead (as autonotification does) would be helpful and also prevent accidental dismisses.

    Airplane mode while screen is locked

    Motorola Stylus G 2022 - Android 13

    I have pretty much followed the FAQ and Dontkillmyapp suggestions. Tasker works fine while the screen is on. But as soon as it locks I have a problem. I set up a simple task of turning off Airplane Mode, waiting 10 seconds, then turning Airplane Mode back on and exiting. It does this every 2 minutes. With the screen off (and locked) it will turn off Airplane Mode but doesn't turn it back on. So when I turn on my screen I see my cell connection is on. So with the screen off,

    Add an action to change Taskers language

    Roland · 0 · Posted

    Sometimes it's useful or necessary to find something in tasker to change the tasker language to English. But for retrieving the correct results for datetime parse actions in correct language tasker needs to use the correct language again, so it's would be handy to have the tasker action to change it's language automatically.

    Action Filtering

    Seb · 0 · Posted

    Tasker has something of an issue with Actions becoming outdated when new versions are introduced. Widget V2 is a great example of this - for most users it completely removes the existing Widget Actions (`Set Widget Icon`, `Set Widget Label`, etc etc). Obviously those Actions need to be preserved for backwards compatibility & the rare edge-case when they're useful, but that's not a frequent occurrence. 

    I think it would be helpful to auto-hide a lot of those Actions (or even Action Groups, like `Zoom` or `Matter Home Automation`. 

    How I envisage this working

    Add Support for User Created Actions and Contexts

    aasswwddd · 2 · Last reply by aasswwddd

    Recently, we’ve gotten a Java Code feature that allows users to interact directly with Android APIs. This gives us the freedom to create custom solutions however we like.

    However, to use the code, we still have to call the task where our code resides using Perform Task, which has limitations when used as an “interface.”

    Unlike built-in Tasker actions, Perform Task only allows users to set two variables. While we can technically pass any variables, we still have to make sure their names match, which isn’t ideal.

    Since Tasker doesn’t currently have a way to read a task’s description or

    Exclude logs of a specific profile or task in Run Log

    SK · 0 · Posted

    Hi,

    I have a profile that is using a for loop, which makes logs very long and unreadable. 

    Can we have a function to exclude a profile or a task in logs?

    Thanks.
