    Notification Leds not recognised in "Alert, Set Light" Action in Android 8.1

    Nick Maverick · 3 · Last reply by Nick Maverick

    I tried to create a task where when I started "Car Mode", I would also light permanently the notification led in Blue color, so when driving I can check quickly if car mode is on and turn it off when car mode is off. 

    In Android 6.0 the action "Alert, Set Light" shows the detected available notification leds and I can use the action successfully, but in Android 8.1 (my new smartphone) the action was disabled, so I updated to the last tasker version and tried again.  The option became available, but there was no notification leds detected, so I could

    sliders in Tasker actions difficult to control

    Malcolm · 0 · Posted

    Could the sliders (SeekBars) used by Tasker actions be improve or made customizable in settings? I find it impossible to use the press-and-drag method -- they just don't move, and the click method is very hit-and-miss.  Using the arrows is often impracticable when the value range is large since the arrows change the value by only +/-1.  Also in some cases a "logarithmic" (actually "exponential") scale would be more appropriate, e.g. for setting a Beep tone frequency where getting somthing in the middle of the audio spectrum on a linear scale that goes from ~0 to 16000 is extremely awkward.

    Wifi Near does not properly detect a Wi-Fi network with "/" character

    Dmitri Trofimov · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I noticed that the "/" character is used as a separator if one wants to specify multiple networks. Can it be done so that double-division sign is treated like a single division sign but as part of SSID?

    Context inside tasks

    Soumya Ranjan Mahunt · 0 · Posted

    The idea is in a task flow hold on untill something is changed or something is accomplished.

    There can be an optional wait time specified for maximum time to wait.

    Like in a task wait untill internet available, or wait untill a variable changed(although it is available in wait untill task, there is no option for maximum time to wait). Moniter something in between a task and proceed after it changed status. 

    Using multiple profiles can accomplish this but giving this option would really be helpful.

    Number picker increment

    Khunicycler · 0 · Posted

    I'd like to be able to use the number picker in a scene for picking a time, but I don't want to have to scroll through every number. I'd like to be able to scroll by increments of my choosing  such as 5, 10, or 15 to make it easier to pick a time

    Exempt some tasks/profiles from logging

    Miles Cheang · 1 · Last reply by Richard Kemp

    Would like some tasks/profiles to be exempt from logging.  My Android SoC has a bunch of small home automation tasks to process every couple minutes, and as you can imagine, my log gets flooded pretty quick. Thanks much.

    Action to change another action's conditions

    Matteo · 1 · Last reply by Matteo

    My Tasker automatically ends calls from some phone numbers presenting a same pattern (End call action if %CNUM ~ /*xxxxxx*/*yyyyyy*/). I would like to add newcoming patterns without having to manually edit this condition by opening Tasker. When a new pattern is detected and is represented by %blockcall for example in the detection task, I can add it by Set %BLOCKCALL : /*%blockcall*%BLOCKCALL (%BLOCKCALL would be the already blocked patterns /*xxx*/*yyy*/) but then I can't automatically modify the End call action's condition. I would like an action in the detection task that replaces other actions in other tasks or their

    Better Links in Error Message Popup

    Stefan · 1 · Last reply by Stefan

    After activating the option in settings to show error message popups these are not very helpful. For example a popup tells me multiple times that a plugin is missing but I can't identify which one is not available. There are just numbers with links in the popup but clicking on the links make them show up in the dialer instead of leading to the profile or task with the problem.

    Add option to disable badges for newly added actions

    Matej Drobnič · 0 · Posted

    As much as I love Tasker, this is not the social media app that needs to grab my attention. It is a tool that I use to automate my workflows. 

    I don't like the fact that Tasker seems to place notification badges on new actions. It creates annoyance after every update and it makes me annoyed at the new features (exactly opposite feeling to the one I wanted).

    It would be useful if there was a way to disable that.

    Add variable and context for battery temperature

    Stefan · 1 · Last reply by Stefan

    It would be nice to have a context and a variable for battery temperature. This could be used for warning the user on high battery temperature and also take appropriate actions (reduce brightness, activate powersave mode, etc. )

    Automate merging calls into a conference.

    Muhammad Majid · 0 · Posted

    Hi,

    Requesting feature to make 2 calls merge into a conference call.

    Here's what i'm trying to achieve here.

    I have an expensive call plan which allows me to make unlimited local and international calls. The only way i can let my wife use it for international calls (without her having access to my phone) is to give her a local call, make another international call, and merge them into a conference and let her talk to her heart's content.

    What i'm trying to achieve is to automate the conference call based on the sms so that she could do

    Disable alarm does not work on Samsung S9

    Arnaud Boussaer · 4 · Last reply by M Frisberg

    I want to disable my 'work' alarm when my calendar has an event 'holiday'.

    The task 'Cancel alarm' only opens the alarm app on my phone, but does not cancel it. Makes no difference which mode (disable current, by label, any). I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 with Android 8.0, alarm app v7.0.92.4.

    PS: The task 'Set alarm' actually does work.

    PS2: also plugin 'ClockTask' wont disable an alarm.

    More VPN tools

    Ralph · 0 · Posted

    The current VPN tools that Tasker supports is the firewall namely "Network Access". This tool is only limited to blocking and allowing apps to connect to the internet. There are a lot of features that can be added like Custom Filter by "NoRoot Firewall", a feature that can deny or allow certain IP's of a certain app for internet access. "HTTP Injector" that has a Custom DNS feature. These apps uses VPN for their features to work and I believe that the Tasker can make it too.

    Increase Granularity of State> TIME>Every to seconds

    Sriram SV · 0 · Posted

    Tasker currently can only perform repeated timely tasks every 1 minute (if given every =2 minutes). Sometimes waiting 1 minute is too long for the profile to become active and Task>Wait does have concurrency issues while multiple tasks are running in parallel.

    Want this to be decreased to 1 seconds level so that tasks can poll faster and profiles get triggered at lesser times.
