    Lag between task commands

    Roh · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi. I'm fairly new to tasker, so I'm sorry if this has a very obvious solution. I have this task running (picture attached). It is activated when my car Bluetooth is disconnected from the phone. When it runs, there is a 5-10 second delay between #5 and #6. Is this any way to make this more fluid and have everything back to back? This is the only task that I've had this issue with. Everything else works flawlessly. Thanks!

    Actions that runs all tasks for a currently active profile

    mark filip · 0 · Posted

    It would be very helpful to have an action that runs all tasks for a currently active profile. I have manual tasks that, upon completion, change various settings (silent/bt off, wifi off) and when the task is complete the profile conditions may have not changed, so there needs to be something that checks which profile is active and re-run the task for that profile to "put things back" to the way they were.

    Specific angle

    Shane Duchock · 0 · Posted

    I would like to see Tasker recognize specific angles.  I have a stand that holds my phone on its side and tilted back just a bit.  Having tasker recognize that specific orientation would be nice.

    Toggle wifi in airplane mode

    yoco9 · 5 · Last reply by Peter Quinto

    Hi,

    Since my passage to Android P on my Samsung S9, it's impossible to activate WiFi in airplane mode.

    Is it tasker problem or Android Pie restriction ?

    Thanks.

    In the application context selection screen, make the frame around selected applications heavier.

    When selecting applications, it is difficult to see such a thin line around the selected application.

    Using Tasker, Autoinput Root Screen capture and in the same folder used for storage I have a whole (65+) photos from another user including their pictures of hot rods, farm equipment and photos of tree trimming imported to my SD card and saved in the exact folder used for tasker screen capture... Yikes!

    Revamped flowchart-based UI

    FartingFairies · 1 · Last reply by Matt Burns

    A new flowchart-based UI (along the lines of competing automation apps) for developing tasks would make it much easier to use the app and would make it much more accessible to a lot of people, as well as a lot less frustrating experience to get even simple things done. This would have the advantage of getting new users who always wanted to use Tasker but did not dedicate the time learning to do so.

    Biometric Authentication Activity to take over back/recents.

    Ian Grody · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Could we please have options to take control of back/recent button when Authentication activity is used?

    In scenes, we can launch them as activities and capture the recent and back buttons and reassign their uses when open. This function would allow to prevent people attempting to bypass the feature.

    Thank you.

    Encryption on Tasker Exported Apps (Tasker Kid)

    Ayra Hikari · 1 · Last reply by Canal Lmiranda

    It nice to tasker can export to apk, but when you open apk as zip, it will show data xml is not encrypted, so someone can steal your hard work.

    So could be nice to added Encryption at xml task on tasker kid, so someone will not kang it or modify it and then replace your name to their name.

    Sync system account(s)

    rfc2822 · 1 · Last reply by bpmartin20

    Idea for a Tasker action: sync system account(s), either

    • all accounts or
    • all accounts of a specific account type or
    • a specific account (by name and type).

    Use cases (examples):

    • sync emails on certain occasions,
    • sync DAVx⁵ accounts on certain occasions.

    The action would have to

    1. enumerate affected accounts and then
    2. call ContentResolver.requestSync for each account.

    Profile execution stats

    Against each profile, show the date/time it was last executed. Additionally, touching the date/time stamp can bring up additional details like how long did the profile execute? How many times has it executed in the last day etc.

    I would like already the last executed time stamp

    Simple idea. Most people may not know of this site to goce feedback for tasker or add in their ideas. Be nice if there was a button somewhere in tasker that would bring you to this site.

    Screen that lists each profiles "Launched Task Priority"

    Tyler T · 0 · Posted

    This would be extremely helpful for people with multiple profiles and projects to help determine which profiles have priority. Could be a simple menu listing: The Names of The Profiles | Project they are under | Launched Priority. And with this list you can click each one to sort from top to bottom or vise versa [EX: Clicking "The Names Of The Profiles tab would put list in order from A-Z , clicking again would put profiles Z-A.] Or  [EX: Clicking Launched Priority would list them all 0-50, clicking again would list them 50-0.]

    Now with Profiles that are Anonymous,

    Ability for Tasker to keep scenes looking the same no matter the screen size

    Tyler T · 0 · Posted

    This is a must but also could be tricky. The problem with creating scenes in tasker is that device screen sizes can vary. This can make it a huge pain to create scenes on a large phone and then transfer them to other devices or vise versa. For example: Creating a scene that looks good on a Note 8 and then transferring it to a Galaxy S7 Edge. Scenes on the S7 Edge will look cramped together or the text sizes might be wrong. Makes it a pain if you have multiple Android devices with varrying screen sizes.

    Add Scene State as Context

    Stefan · 0 · Posted

    It would be helpful to be able to add a Scene State as a condition in the profile.

    Example:

    I have a ScreenFilter Overlay Scene that reduces brightness over night. Also I have a Profile that will destroy that Overlay Scene if ambient light is bright enough. However, as it's not possible in the profile to check if the scene's still visible the profile becomes active frequently running the enter task which checks for the scene each time just to stop the task again if the scene has already been destroyed.

    Plus ins need to be manually edited after tasker data restore on new device

    insaned · 0 · Posted

    Upon installation of a new device and the tasker restoration of data, tasker plug ins need to be re-edited manually (sometimes just click the edit button and exit is enough) to be able to work as it looks like otherwise it won't generate the variables. Even if each plug in app itself is opened beforehand, it stills need to be edited in tasker.

    Export scene by url

    While profiles, tasks and projects can be exported by url, it can't be done with scenes. Adding this functionality will be helpful.

    Shake sensitivity sometimes becomes too high, rebooting fixes

    Moleculor · 0 · Posted

    I have a simple profile set to go off when the phone is shaked 'left-right'.

    Sensitivity is very low. Duration is very long. Though I don't know what either of those things means (does 'very low' mean it it takes a very strong shake, or a very small shake to hit the very low threshold? Does 'very long' mean I have to shake it for a very long time, or it tracks motion for a very long time and looks to see if I slowly shook the phone?), it still functions about as I expect: I need a strong, firm,
