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.

When I go to the scenes tab and tap the plus sign, I'm prompted to name my scene. As soon as I tap the check mark after naming, Tasker crashes. Backed up data, reinstalled, and restored. Same result.

As of now, tasker backups are stored in XML format and is naked. It would be great if it is encrypted or at least locked, below are my suggestions:

• Encryted XML content with a key like RSA + optional passphrase
• Zip the file and lock it with a passphrase

No need to grant them all, at least our setup are locked.

Please also force us to use strong passphrases. 

JSON format would be great too since it would be smaller (I think) in size than XML format thus making the encryption or zip locking process a little bit faster

Tasker's default Quick Settings Tile is very useful for disabling/enabling Tasker, but can its label be changed from "Toggle" to "Tasker" to better describe its function?

Update the behavior of the Tasker Action: Display AutoRotate (Off, On, Toggle) to reflect the Screen rotation changes introduced in Android 9 (API level 28):

“When the device is in rotation lock mode, users can lock their screen to any rotation supported by the top, visible Activity. An Activity should not assume it will always be rendered in portrait. If the top Activity can be rendered in multiple rotations in auto-rotate mode, the same options should be available in rotation locked mode, …”

Currently, setting Display AutoRotate to Off, always locks the screen to portrait instead of the current orientation.

For example, I have an array_list with (red, green, blue), so I want that when the list display, the item red will be in red color and so on.

So the idea is that we can create another array for example array_color based on array_list with (#ffff0000, #ff00ff00, #ff0000ff) and put the variable in the text color field. Then the text color and array item is link together by the array index, therefore the list will display array_list(1) with the text color array_color(1).

The same suggestion for image path in Item Layout. So we can put array_icon in the image

It should be useful if we can select all and clear selection wherever there is a list of item show. For example: List Dialog or List Menu in scene.
