My newest Tasker automation relies on such a context. I currently am using a complex workaround based on variables. This is less than ideal because the variables must be set one particular way, which is not versatile, and my current setup for this project is fairly confusing. My automatons could be greatly simplified if this wish were fulfilled. 

We need to call number 2*1500 to sign in to our phone network, and 2**1500 to sign out.

Very similar numbers, as you can see.

Tasker seems to be a bit confused about this. Trying to add two tasks - one when calling 2*1500 and another when calling 2**1500

The solution was to have contacts with these numbers (that we had already) and then in Tasker use the name of the contact instead of the number.

As I requested in the google groups, adding the request to launch kid app via URL shortcuts (KidAppName://) From G Group: "Hello, I have external app that I can program to launch android app. For example, it launches "Tidal" app by sending "tidal://". Any idea how can I make this possible for App Factory Child App?"

In reference to my previous post i may have the answer.

Back in the days when i created profiles and their relative tasks i was using the app with the language set to english and i still prefer to have english as default. Now, from time to time tasker decides on its own (???) to change language to italian (which is the OS language) and that causes all of my tasks to stop working properly. When i change language back to english everything seems to work again as normal. How do i prevent tasker from automatically switching languages?

Thank you

I have a speaking clock profile that announces the time on the half hour. The first action is a display on or I should say Turn on with default block time 500ms. I have another profile mute media volume using the Samsung bixby button. Again the first action is Turn on but it doesn't turn on. Could it be the secondary app context or the app I'm muting or something else?

When Tasker is placed on the home screen, and Tasker Secondary is not on the home screen. When applying a change in Tasker. Then Tasker is replaced by Tasker Secondary on the home screen.

Hello, 

I bought a Google Suite account to replace my former Gmail account, but apparently this disabled my Tasker licence. 

¿Could you please transfer my licence from my Gmail to my Google Suite account?

Many thanks, regards

Hello. I think Ifound a bug. When Profiles first action is NFC-tag and if NFC ID is not defined then in native Tasker it works fine, but if you Export to APK application, then this application says No Active Profiles. If you write NFC ID in NFC-tag action, then APK application works fine.

Device is Oneplus 8 Pro on Android 10. The Display -> Turn On task does not work. I've tried increasing the "block" value but no change in behaviour. Thanks.

Hi João,

Sometimes the log is too short for me. I have a ton of profiles and some loops, etc. 

Would be great to have an easy way to see the last time a profile was activated and also since when the ones currently active have been active.

I believe Tasker already record that as we have cool down for profiles.

In the screenshot you can check my suggestion. It is to place a time indicator in the profile list itself. 

I would like to report something related to the Text Input element from scenes.

When you just create it (and show it) a bottom line that tells the user that this is a text input type field gets appeared everytime the scene is shown (created), but when you visit/tap the Background tab it gets dissapeared permanently. You need to delete and create the element again, and avoid entering to this tab again.

I can create something like a little frame using the Rectangle element, and also it would end cleaner, maybe... But I just wanted to report it because I

I tried to import a project to an old phone and it failed. After a bit of investigation I found that the List Dialog and Text Dialog are not shown in the Input action group. That is, unlike other settings, they don't show red with a message telling you what version of android is needed. Also, I don't think they should be missing, as the dialog used by Text Dialog is available on Android 6.

This is with the latest version of Tasker.

Hi Joao, I have a question regarding to the scenes. When an Overlay scene is created when the screen is off, the screen remains off. But when a Dialog or Activtity scene is created, the screen automatically becomes on. Can this behaviour be changed on future releases, so the screen doesn't turn on? Or is it a Tasker/Android limitation that cannot be "fixed"? We already have the Turn On action to manually turn it on. Thank you ;) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Source (Reddit): Go!

Hello , My device model is mi 6. 

When I use ADB wifi on Tasker, the prompt is sh adb Not Found，As shown in the figure below.

My device system info : I can provide you with the test, my email is: , please use Base64 decoding How to solve this problem?  TKS.

I am the secretary for a small but very active archery group.  We use group messages constantly to send out meeting reminders, upcoming events and work parties.  Currently, Tasker can send SMS messages, but not MMS.  I can get around that restriction by sending a join SMS message from my tablet to my phone with multiple phone numbers and my phone then sends it out as an MMS message without an issue.

It would be much more convenient to send out a group message from my phone using Tasker rather than relying on my tablet.  I always travel with my phone,

Just like the normal actions we can get guided into selecting the start and end points of a gesture, or even record it both at once. Having both the options of recording and individual point selection will be very convenient. 

I have not been able to get the right syntax to passthrough arrays using "Limit passthrough to". When "Limit passthrough to" is blank the arrays passthrough works as expected.

Have the option "Limit passthrough" in the "Variable Set" and "Array Set" actions.

Tasker as of now cannot launch apps from a work profile.

It'd be nice if it could

I think to know that this is a hard one

Add possibility to pack color (#RRGGBB, aqua, red green, orange, ...) to a manual selected icon.

If you select an icon by "Image Select" and then switch to manual selection - the button next to the generic icon table - you get the URI of the previous selected icon but can't add any icon color.

Additionally "Image Selection" has no option to select a file by file manager.

Background:

I want to switch status bar icon by var if a condition is not/met. Color of status bar icon does not matter, but within the notification would be great.
