My basic android developer skills (followed a course in college) tell me you can add a animation when starting an activity (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2651360/how-to-provide-animation-when-calling-another-activity-in-android).

Currently the activity pops into existence, which is fine for when you want to automate something in said activity. But one of the ways I use tasker is for (re-)adding shortcuts that OEMs sometimes remove (like the Google In-App search). I'd like to get as close to the indented experience and an animation would be nice.

A use-to-use share community is helpful to guide the newcomers and maintain the vitality of the APP.

However, it is inconvenient when you want to share your useful profile to others. Here are some common ways I saw on the internet:

1. Record a video to tell others how to set a profile. I think this would hold back most people who just want to share their thoughts.

2. Write down all the setting steps like this one: https://forums.androidcentral.com/android-apps/301540-tasker-lets-contribute-profiles.html

3. Export profile and import profile. 

I think Workflow on iOS has done a good job. as attached file. Click the button

It's sometimes useful to be able to perform multiple tasks simultaneously (eg one task may be updating some state in the background).

For example, a Scene may be taking input for some duration and updating an expiry widget based on the duration input and the current time. But the time itself can be changing, too; it would be nice if the expiry widget can be updated when the current time changes.

For the Network Access action, instead of picking apps from a list, would be nice if one can use a variable/array to specify the app(s). This way, we can allow or deny different apps based on conditions.

I see that Tasker provides actions for the following audio channels / variables ...

Alarm ...% VOLA Average ...% VOLM Notification ...% VOLN Ringer ...% VOLR System ...% VOLS In-Call ...% VOLC DTMF ...% VOLD BT Voice ... Could it be VOLB?

I suppose it will not be very complicated to implement.

I think you should make new optional protocol for plugins to allow giving something like modules to tasker when exporting kid-apps (not always)

And don't make it essential for every single action... so it will be easy for developers to implement

Plugins developers may offer it as purchase from store

I know it's a hard or maybe something semi-impossible but this will make plugins really useful in kidapps as they are not at all now..

Hi, 

The internal Tasker file Manager has no Access (on Oreo and maybe other Android Versions) to /system or /sys. I think this is because it is not using root to Access it.

So it would be nice to get a Feature like that to watch System files (Tasker functions are "File opened/closed")

Thanks 

Using the Notification (or Alarm, Media, etc.) should respect the current "Do Not Disturb" setting.

Hi Every one,

  i have Android TV in my android marshmallow phone, its working both phone apps and Android TV apps, i have Tasker 5.1 menu button is not working, its working in AutoApps. please any one how to make working menu button, thanks

Default Light theme would be much better off with a white status bar using dark icons.   Also would be cool toolbar items ('Tasker' tittle, 'Search' icon and 'Overflow menu' icon) in accent color, following the trend of Google's new design. Something like the Settings app on AOSP Oreo.  

Goodmorning my Name is Nicolò Galli. Congratulation for your great app, tasker is very smart, useful and effective. If is possibile i would like to ask a new features. Was great if tasker could handle the dual SIM ringtone and the volume, separately, for manage in dual SIM phone when put silence mode in the first or the second SIM.

Thank so much

Best regard Nicolò Galli

Atm tasker saves up to two log files of ~2mb before overwriting them. This means depending on how much you're doing with tasker, they might not reach far back. In my case there's only 2h worth of data (extensive looping) and this makes debugging quite a challenge. 

I'd like if we could increase the log size if necessary. 

Would it be possible to have more date options to be used in Contexts?

For example every 4th Friday in a month, or the first or last Sunday each month?

Hi

Currently Tasker does not have basic TCP actions, for Connecting, Sending, Receiving, and Disconnecting.

The closest thing it has, are the HTTP GET and POST (and HEAD..) actions, which might be problematic for sending files, since I don't know If I can use them to send a 15MB file for example, in one HTTP GET/POST..

Can Tasker be added with these 4 basic actions for TCP?

TCP_Connect(HostnameOrIP,Port) TCP_Disconnect()

TCP_Send(Data) TCP_Receive()

Thank you very much

It'd be great to have an application profile that you could modify in scene or/and variable also. This way you could do for example a game/childrens/visitor etc. profiles and you could edit apps selected as a trigger.

I was doing a blocker app for my kids phone so that it would block the screen every time he would start certain apps in his phone. I was doing it with Tasker App factory but couldnt do it because there is no way to select the apps which trigger the tasks. Same goes on many apps made with app factory that require

The permanent foreground notification in the Android status bar, is white and doesn't change with the Tasker dark mode settings. The Wunderground weather app has an example if you'd like to see. Thank you!

The Notification Clicked Event only needs Accessibility Service Permission if you want to read notifications put up by other apps. In Kid App development this event is often used to read notification clicks on notifications the Kid App put up itself. If you add this event to your app, tasker adds the accessibility service permission to the manifest and there is nothing you can do about it atm. 

Unless you fancy fighting with Google and receive the threat of a permanent ban, you can't use accessibility service permission in apps you want to upload to the store.

I suggest the

On my previous phone (moto G3), when I set infinity focus on “Take picture” that work really great. But on lot of new phone I tested, infinity focus mode on the take picture feature make blurry photos. 

After some search I undertending that the range on the focus is no limear. So for exemple if we define the begin of the focus range at 0 and the end at 1000 : 0 focus on a medium point, 250 on infinity and 1000 on the nearest point. 

So it will be very useful to have a manual focus paramètre where we

Currently there is  no help text "anywhere" for the correct method to back up data for install on new device. Both the android back up and Tasker's back up should have some "Very Clear" help text on how to get your Tasker data to a new device or just save it for a fresh install on the current device. It should be noted what is and is not backed up with each method. IE currently global variables and all saved projects, profiles, tasks, scenes in there respective folders are not saved in the Tasker Back up. I do not know
