Update Sqlite Version

James — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 05:23:31 +0000

My next feature request is to update the sqlite version in the sql query action. I would like to use many of the date time functions only available in later versions.

When I query "SELECT sqlite_version();" it outputs "3.39.2

Compare the two user guides' pages on date and time functions:

[3.39.2 - September 2022](https://web.archive.org/web/20220902005517/https://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html)

[3.53.0 - Latest Version ](https://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html)

The latest version has the timediff function that is missing from the earlier one. It also has 14 more substitutions and 9 more modifiers. Those would be very useful for a few of my projects.

Thanks!

Feature Request: Back Navigation Button in Tasker's Main Menu

Rashad Pitsenbarger — Sun, 05 Apr 2026 03:56:39 +0000

Hi João, per your reply on reddit to add a ticker here... I am hoping you would consider extending the back button navigation you introduced in Scenes v2 to the main Tasker navigation menu as well.

Currently, navigating two or three levels deep into a submenu, only to realize you are in the wrong place, requires returning all the way to the three dots menu to start over. A small back button at each menu level would resolve this and meaningfully reduce friction for frequent users.

Given that the component already exists in Scenes v2, this feels like a natural carry-over rather than a net-new build. Small quality-of-life improvements like this compound over time and go a long way toward keeping the experience polished.

Thank you for considering it, and for everything you continue to put into Tasker.

Icon packs in Image picker

A.C. — Wed, 01 Apr 2026 21:12:51 +0000

When some apps (KWGT is one such example) need to prompt the user to select an image, installed icon packs (as well as other image sources like gallery apps) show up in the Open from menu. If the user selects one, he can search through the icon pack to select any icon in it as an image.

However, when Tasker needs the user to select an image, the resulting file picker does not contain image sources in the Open from view. It's just a plain file picker.

As it is now, user must extract icons from packs and place the images in a folder so that the file picker can find them. It would save the user a lot of time if Tasker used the Open from menu variant that presents image sources. This would be particularly useful when using Tasker to create scenes and widgets.

Screenshots showing difference between the file pickers:

"normal" file picker

"image sources" file picker

Add Ability to Add Task Callers to Android Copy/Paste Menu

KyleK29 — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 14:17:55 +0000

This is one area of Android I don't think Tasker has hooked into, infact many apps don't seem to hook into it, and I only became aware it was possible when I saw Anki do it (screenshot below). The menu I'm talking about is the selected text long press contextual menu that often has Copy/Paste/SelectAll (and occasionally Define) in it. This would serve as a quick way to copy text to a specific Task you want to use to process said test.

A Google searched yielded this: Google Copy/Paste Menu

I would suspect that there might be a way for Tasker to predeclare some Task Caller spots that the user could configure in preferences, much like many of the other areas the app has enabled enhancements for (Tiles, Share, etc.).

Screenshots:

- Dialog reference of the menu I'm referring to

- The extended portion of the menu where apps Google Translate and CoPilot have added their own options.

Profile doesn't work after restart

Nikola Rakewo — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 19:57:28 +0000

I have a profile that doesn't work after a restart. The only way to get it working again is to disable the profile and then re-enable it. Since I'm using Tasker on my car's Android stereo, I essentially have to do this every time I start my car up again.

What the profile does is that when I have music playing, a flash notification pops up that identifies the title, artist, and album art of the track.

I have given Tasker all possible permissions and it doesn't help. There is no battery optimizations on my device for Tasker.

Dedicated Log View for Individual Tasks or Profiles

S A — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 14:13:22 +0000

Long-press a task or profile → open menu → View Log.

The current Run Log is powerful but becomes hard to read with many automations running. Seeing only that specific task or profile's past runs would make debugging faster, clearer, and more approachable while keeping the global Run Log unchanged.

Disclose everything that is included during export via taskernet and make it less dubious to export.

aasswwddd — Tue, 17 Feb 2026 07:51:07 +0000

The current tasker share activity com.joaomgcd.taskerm.datashare.export.ShareDataConfig doesn't provide any information about what's included during export.

Tasker will by default include everything that is included in the project. Even those who doesn't belong to the project, which the user may not want to share to begin with.

While I must acknowledge that including them may be very convenient to ensure the export works properly, it looks dubious to me that the user is not informed at all about this.

Furthermore the default behaviour is that we have to back out to export. Which is not the usual way to handle confirmation.

Thus Tasker should.

List everything profiles, tasks, scenes, (PTS) and their scoped variables in the share activity.
Make it very clear which items doesn't belong to the items that being shared. Especially those who is in different project.
1. Show a toast that says. "Export contains another items from different project."
2. Highlight those who belongs to another project or items that is directly tied the the shared item.
Improve the export flow.
1. Replaces the cancel button with export button/ Create new button to confirm export.
2. Ask user if they want to import or not when they back out of the share activity.

Motorola Razr - external display widget v2

mr_vii — Tue, 17 Feb 2026 07:04:04 +0000

I guess i't a limitation from Motorola, not Tasker, but I really like to have a widget on external display. Can anyone help?

Quick Settings Tile icon appears lower resolution

dusan236 — Sat, 14 Feb 2026 13:17:18 +0000

I’ve noticed an inconsistency in icon rendering quality when using a Task as a Quick Settings (QS) tile.

When I set a custom icon for the entire Task and then assign that Task as a QS tile, the icon appears sharp and high resolution in the Quick Settings panel.

However, when I set the icon using the “Set Up Quick Setting Tile” action inside the Task, the same icon appears noticeably lower resolution (blurred/less sharp).

I am using 96x96 PNGs in both cases.

Tasker doesnt randomly select image

freedomplayer95 — Sun, 08 Feb 2026 09:44:41 +0000

I set up tasker so every 4 minuted it chooses a random folder from a specific director and then randomly chooses an image from that folder and sends it to klwp to set it up as wallpaper. But i noticed that some images get selected waaaaay to often. This should be random but from a folder that contains 1000 images i got 1 image twice already in the last hours. Yesterday i even got an image twice in 8 minutes from a folder that has almost 1500 images in it.

I start to think that tasker doesnt look at all the images in a folder and stops at a point or even just takes the images it once selected.

Is there something I didnt understand about tasker? Also i had another issue that wide images dont get send to klwp in full resolution. Is there a way i can make tasker send the image in full resolution or make klwp load it in full resolution maybe?

Issue with Javascriptlet when processing JSON Data

Productivity — Thu, 05 Feb 2026 10:19:52 +0000

At te moment, the javascriptlet is failing when it is used to process or filter data from a JSON. While it works correctly for other use cases, it does not behave as expected when handling JSON data, resulting in no output. This indicates that the issue is related specifically to how the javascriptlet processes JSON, rather than to the data itself

Make every bound services available in Tasker available in Java code as well

Notify action live update issue on lock screen / AOD

MichiGigaByte — Wed, 14 Jan 2026 12:53:26 +0000

Hello,

I'm writing to report an issue with the "Notify Live Update" action on my Google Pixel 10 Pro. Currently, the notification content is not appearing on the lock screen or the always-on display.

I believe this is due to the "Show sensitive content on lock screen" setting being disabled.

Would it be possible to add a checkbox on the action that allows users to specify whether a particular notification's content should be treated as sensitive or not?

I have attached screenshots of my lock screen both with and without the sensitive content setting enabled for reference.

Convert regular variables to Task/Profile/Project variables and add indication they exist

Moshe Siani — Wed, 14 Jan 2026 06:04:33 +0000

Convert regular variables to Task/Profile/Project variables - Something similar to if blocks.

Having some kind of indication that there are variables Task/Profile/Project - Sometimes coming back to an old project you don't remember if you had your variables as a Task/Profile/Project.

"Continue after error" checked by default for certain or all actions

Jason Cooper — Tue, 13 Jan 2026 15:39:28 +0000

It would be really nice if we could default "continue after error" to
be checked by default, either by action type or at least in general
for all actions.

Autoinput Actions not saving (Android)

Alex — Sat, 10 Jan 2026 21:09:31 +0000

Hi All,

Have a Samsung Fold 4, Android.

I'm trying to modify the existing 'text' element of an auto input (v1) click action in tasker but after I manually change the text and click back, the text field doesn't change.

Easy input also does not work. On the Autoinput screen, I get this error message on the bottom 'Please touch tasker on this list'.

But there is no list.

When create a new autoinput action, the fields remain blank.

Tried Autoinput v2, but nothing saves there too.

I've tried disabling and re-enabling accessibility and clearing data and cache.

Summary: I cannot modify or create autoinput actions in Tasker.

Would someone help me please?

Autoinput actions not working on gemini settings/overview screen

Nico — Thu, 08 Jan 2026 11:28:42 +0000

Hi there,

I have a task using autoinput to go into the settings of gemini and switch between hotword detection being on and off. For some reason this stopped working. It still opens the overview screen, but it does not execute any clicks or swipes to go to settings. Same problem with V1 and 2 of autoinput. And the same actions work in several other apps I have tried. And when I manually click on settings, the clicks on the next screen work again. Any ideas?

Cheers. Nico

Show Linked Tasks

Viper21 — Fri, 12 Dec 2025 17:46:21 +0000

I have some projects that have an complex connection of tasks that call other tasks, and sometimes this spans across multiple projects.

So just like you have the "Show Linked Projects" action on each task, I would like a similar action that shows which other tasks are calling the selected task (i.e. tasks that call this task from the "Perform Task" action).

You could call this "Show Linked Tasks". :)

I know this can be done from the search option by entering the name of the task, but this is cumbersome and shows a whole lot of other noise than I want to see.
