It would be really useful if there was a variable, something like %ACTIVE that could be used in profiles to note when a task is running. It would be the same as using %TRUN !Set, but if possible, set to true and false when tasks run or not so that many profiles don't need to check for the turn state every time it changes.

Accidental touches cause profiles to be turned off. Can you provide an option by which users can decide to show a confirmatory box before turning on/off a profile from the home page?

https://tasker.helprace.com/i1649-autolocation-can-t-backup-and-restore

That there is an update to AutoLocation to allow backup/restore on newer devices. However, that update isn't available yet on the Play Store (I am in the Autolocation beta). I cannot sideload apps on my device due to Work profile policy.

Can a fixed version be made available on the Play Store?

Using the Element Depth action on a video element causes all videos in the scene go black and restart. This is annoying because videos take several seconds to restart.

Happens no matter what combination of element or scene settings there is.

Proposal:

Allow multiple tasks, scenes, and profiles to have the same name so long as they're in different projects. You can have the default be to check the current project so you don't break people's stuff and you can make it so that if there's only one task with said name, it'll use that one to further the not breaking of stuff.

Examples:

1) Project "Main" has a task named "Get Project Name" which returns "Main" while the project "Chrome" also has one which returns "Chrome". You could access Main's task thusly, "Main(Get Project Name)" and if the calling task

Hi, I might be late to the game for this RC version.

I am wondering if you will add the ability to access icon pack directly? Since there is a new feature to add Task to launcher, we need to choose an icon.

For now, we can only choose the application icon, but if we can choose the icon from an icon pack directly, we have more option.

For example, I have a task to automate Google Maps direction. If I use the original application icon and put them side by side, it will be quite confusing because of the

I like to bring a running app to the foreground.

When I use the Launch app command it starts the app with its start screen.

Same as you would start the app when it was not running.

I need the app to stay on the screen it is on and only be brought to the foreground.

Same as if you would switch to an running app by hand.

I have a Wifi I regularly connect to. I have a Tasker profile that reacts to this Wifi being connected to and does some tasks. I recently enabled "Private DNS" setting in Android. Unfortunately this specific Wifi does not allow encrypted DNS (a.k.a. Private DNS). This means, I can connect to the Wifi successfully, but internet access over that Wifi is not working (exclamation mark besides the wifi symbol, internet not working with disabled mobile data).

I wanted to make Tasker disable "Private DNS" when connected to that Wifi and re-enable it when disconnecting to that Wifi. Unfortunately, this does

When i scroll through profiles/tasks in the lists i cannot see if there are some changed (not default) properties or profile/task -variables set.  This makes debugging hard, for ex. i wonder why my profile does not activate when in fact there is a cooldown set. 

If tasks/properties would have an indicator showing "there is something set in the properties." debugging would be a lot quicker sometimes.

When receiving a notification from my phone on my desktop via Tasker Join, the focus on the currently working app is stolen from the notification which means that if I am typing something, it is interrupted every time I receive a notification and I have to Alt+Tab to return to my application.

Paid for app in previous build of android or different gmail account, happy to pay the fee when i can. Cheers Scott 

The Tasker Toast Layout has some great features that the AutoTools Toast doesn't, like appearing on the lockscreen and timeout. On the other hand, the AutoTools Toast has more customization, like font, padding, and more. 

Could AutoTools be updated to add these missing features? Or could Tasker include the toast customization that AutoTools has? Having the functionality of both with be amazing. Thanks! 

On certain devices, Tasker will not be able to execute the "Net" > "Bluetooth Info"> "Scan Devices" action because it needs android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN permission.

I have granted every single permission to Tasker. This effects Galaxy S20 FE with Android 13, but not Pixel 8 Pro with Android 14.

I may be able to grant with ADB, but Tasker is not properly requesting this permission or something else is wrong, as I am able to run Bluetooth scan from my own app with proper permissions on the same device. Maybe it also needs BLUETOOTH_ADMIN?

Here are the permissions my own app uses:

With Android 14 update, Notifications cannot be persistent anymore. So I am always dismissing ones I want. This is request to give Autonotifications an option to make them reappear if they are accidentally dismissed, perhaps in the "command on dismiss" area there can be an option to reappear if you want it to be persistent .

Would you please consider adding a millisec (msec) parameter to the Volume Up, Volume Down, and Volume Up/Down events in Tasker?

Currently, the "Additional Time" parameter accepts only whole numbers as seconds, which doesn't help if I want to configure the volume long press to 0.5 sec.

In the tasker Do Not Disturb action (Mode: custom settings), as "Allow SMS Senders", I see 4 options: - Any - Contacts - Starred - None

But ... in the corresponding systems settings (Android 14) there is also another (new ?) option: - Priority conversations

Is possible to activate it from tasker ?

Title says.

Expected behaviour for disabled project.

1. The profiles status remains unchanged.
2. The profiles stop monitoring their assigned contexts, so they won't trigger the tasks they are tied with as if they are disabled.
3. The tasks and scenes are still useable by other projects.

I think It may be better to put the 3rd point under the action that toggles the project so user could have more control over their behaviour.

Some additional actions or variables may be needed to query their status, and retrieve the project list.

Add "run after existing task" to Collision Handling.

The Condition features are a great idea !!!   But what I miss most, is the possibilty to move, copy, paste a single condition statement within the IF of an action and to copy a single conditon statement to another action. In the example below, I would like to Move, Copy, Paste a single line like %WifiCMD ~ auto withthin the Condition block or to other Actions or IF statements !   Action Edit Condition %BatLow SET OR %WifiCMD ~ auto AND %Usr !SET

Change the add action button (the + dealy) such that it adds the action above the currently selected action as if "insert action" from the menu were clicked.
