How about an integration of the Dhizuku API to grant tasker device owner permissions for phones that cannot be rooted at this time?

https://github.com/iamr0s/Dhizuku

Maybe as an additional checkbox next to the use root checkbox if the app is detected on the device and the permissions to use the app are granted to Tasker?

Some information on this: The app "Easy Call Forwarding" can set Call forwardings with a simple tap on a shortcut. It does the same as tasker should do: Send an ussd code... So there should be a way for tasker to do it the same way.

When using the Sound Mode task, tasker is able to change the sound mode to vibrate or "sound", but not to mute. Any suggestions?

When I use an Autonotification tile with "Hide Notifications" as an option (to collapse the notification shade), I instead get a warning that Autonotification cannot close the shade and I should be using "Close System Dialogs" from the fired task to close the shade.

Unfortunately, a work profile on my device prevents me from using Tasker's accessibility service, so this is not an option for me.

However, other apps I use with quick setting tiles all seem to be able to accomplish this goal without special permissions. As does the QuickTask Tasker plugin.

All of these other apps appear to

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

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 ?

Hello, I am trying to make Tasker do, what i believe, is a fairly simple task.

I am using Tasker in my car. I have an aftermarket headunit that is running Android on it.

What I would like is, when the headunit turns on, I would like Tasker to wait 2 minutes, then open an app. "Waze" app to be exact. Thats it.

I was able to make this happen by simply creating a task with the following:

1. Wait -> 2 minutes

2. Launch App -> Waze

However, this proved to be unreliable because the aftermarket headunit does not

Hi!

Sorry if my English is not good. 

I'm new to tasker and I created 2 tasks, CrossFit and test.

If I delete one of the tasks and I ask Google assistant to run the only task that's left, it does it with no issues, but if I have 2 or more tasks and ask Google assistant to run one of them, a pop up appear asking for confirmation of which task to run and an arrow pointing to the one I asked in the first place (see screenshot below)

It is not that the names are similar, or it

Help section is being shy hiding himself behind the triple dot menu.

IMHO, Tasker should have promoted him more to the user by actively presenting him in the upper layer.

I think placing him right next to the resect button will make the user notice him more. 

Or maybe Tasker could introduce a new way to call him for certain action. E.g long pressing the action in action list menu.

The former should be sufficient though. Thank you!

It would be really helpful if we could search by task name when adding a task to a profile. My list of tasks is really long and scrolling takes a long time.

My Tasker stopped working after 6 years on my Ugoos TV box. When trying to reinstall, it is not possible to pass the install screen with tickboxes as I am unable to tick the box battery optimization. My android TV box is always connected to power. Changing battery settings and reboots did not solve it.  What can I do?

New In Android 13:

KeyguardManager  |  Android Developers

Please add support for the new KeyguardLockedStateListener class so that, in addition to the, "Display Unlocked" we may also have, "Display Locked." From a security hardening perspective, this is an essential feature.

This allows for features like putting the device into a paranoid-level of security so that -- in the case of a malicious actor -- if someone uses known-exploits (via USB) to remove a user's secured lockscreen while the device is on and logged into, Tasker can protect the user. This, combined with amazing features like an "Overlay+/Allow Outside of Boundaries"

Beacons are so different from Classic Bluetooth devices they need their own tools. Although the name is the same (Bluetooth), both the operation and the usage are completely different. First the theory, then some specifics--

Theory -In addition to being BLE devices, Beacons are a] off (not advertising) for several seconds at a time, b] have use cases that need to distinguish "nearness" as close as a few feet, c] have use cases that require responding in just a few seconds -even when off, and d] broadcast a _very_ faint signal to minimize power use (which means something as innocuous

In the "help" text for the display Turn Off action, we have the following text:   "On some devices it takes about 3 seconds for it to really turn off, on others it might take around 10 seconds. Either way, a fully black screen will be shown while the screen doesn't really turn off."   Could we have a new option for the Turn Off action which would allow the display to fade out without it being covered by the black screen? Sometimes, this fade-out behavior is desirable when the display is being turned off.   Thank you very much

Would be cool if we had a way to open the Running Tasks and Active Profile Monitor directly via shortcut or an action. So we can open them directly from a notification for example.

Could be done via a new "Show Monitoring" action with option to choose between tasks, profiles and runlog. The "Show Runlog" action could be integrated in the "Show Monitoring" action.

I used to use tasker together with tasker settings 1.3 to control Wi-Fi on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 with android 11.

This worked until last weekend, when my phone got an update to android 12 by xiaomi.

I then updated  to tasker settings 1.4 from github, which seems to be the latest revision but still Wi-Fi control doesn't work anymore.

Is there something I am missing here?

Suggested feature.

1. Log Variable Names, Their Values, and at which actions their values changed.
2. Prioritize showing mentioned variables over generated variables. (Like in variable select list.)
3. Bring user additional dialog to manipulate selected entry.
   1. Copy variable
   2. Copy values
   3. Bring to action where selected variable's value changed

Something like this.

Reason

1. It's a unnecessarily recursive & stressful work to know variable values by flashing them one by one.
2. It's frustratingly hard to find where the variables change for longer action lines, especially those who generated a bunch of variables.

Benefit

1. Inspecting variables becomes easier & convenient.

Hopefully this could be implemented somehow.

Custom location radius and shape:

Some local areas like schools are not exactly 100m or 200m in size, nor are they perfectly circle, so I would like to see a feature to define custom radii when editing the location condition and a feature to create a custom shaped location, defined by 3 or more coordinates. This is because I don't want to turn on some profile when walking past my school.

Combining conditions:

Writing the first part, I realise that there is no feature to combine conditions like location and state, or time and event. This would be a quality

Could make a way to use parameters that can be renamed according to the task maybe using the properties variables or even add a comment so that if other users are going to run the same task it already comes with a custom description when executed

So far Tasker doesn't have a way to start video recording, I don't know if it could be because of a Google play privacy policy, but I remember that there are other automation apps with this option
