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.

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

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. 

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

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.

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.

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. )

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

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.

Yea, like that.

Like the title says, one of the things missing that I feel would be great.

Cheers!

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.

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.

This has been a long sought for ability and requested many times in the past. It would work as the variable time context works only include a date along with time. It would be set with global variables.  I think a new context would be better then updating the existing time or date contexts. 

Just like the Island app by Oasis Feng, Tasker should also have the same feature that can handle both (Mainland and Island) personal and work profile and to be able to have an app state for work apps and to be able to freeze app in both profiles.

And to also add some features that is only accessible with the administrator user.

Anytime there's a local variable name present anywhere in an If/The/Else statement - the red/green indicator will never EVER light up correctly.

Including and even when using the step-Play icon to go through the Task step-by-step.

Therefore the red/green indicator should never show up whenever a local variable name is present in the comparison. It just creates clutter and confuses people newer to Tasker.

For those people who have used Tasker for a while - although we've become accustomed to just ignoring it, with a solution so simple, that shouldn't have to be the case.

I guess the ultimate suggestion

When i create a standalone app with appfactory 5.6, the the media button event is not received by the app. In tasker 5.6 itself it works perfectly.

Please help. I'm stuck! 

Tasker occasionally crashes. Quite old problem and have not been fixed still. And when it does crash, it also triggers all or most of the tasks to action, apparently all at the same time. This is very old problem since Tasker 4 and have had this with Android 5, 6 and 7.

Might be some bug if too much going on at the same time? Maybe should optimize my stuff and give different priorities to tasks (as I have never done that)? Or maybe need more powerful smartphone to run my stuff without crashing?

I have observed that crash phenomenon

To get a better sense as to how your complex structures operate it would be great if run log could be somehow visualized through live animated flow charts. Would be able to debug quicker, make improvements quicker, and able to create and understand more complex systems. The whole awesomeness of Tasker is after all making programming easier and it could also break barriers as to how complex things could be made by making the creation process easier.

It's quite tedious selecting lines of code with a finger. It seems to me that the slightest movement while executing a long click in order to select the first of a block of lines results in that line not becoming selected. Subsequent lines are, of course easy to select and deselect once that first line has been successfully selected. A little square box in the margin against each line could be ticked or unticked to cause the selection or deselection perhaps?
