    A problem that has not been solved in 10 years.

    TaskerClub · 0 · Posted

    Hello! I beg you, please solve the problem with speech recognition, this problem has been around for 10 years and no one is talking about it. When I use recognition from Bluetooth headphones, the microphone of the headphones does not work, but the microphone of the phone, which makes it impossible to use such a profile when the phone is far away. This is not a problem with the headphones, I tried 15 from different brands and it's the same everywhere, which is interesting, everything works correctly with Google Assistant/Gemini. I tried AutoVoice, but it works unstable on Android 13.

    UI usability and readability improvements

    Senliast · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Currently, names of profiles, tasks, scenes and variables are cut off if they are too long. If there are many of them and you categorize them (for example with dashes in the name) - it becomes hard to differentiate between them, because you have to edit the name to read it fully. Therefore, i suggest to make them either running or wrap in multiple lines if too long (in all 4 tabs).

    Additionally, i suggest to put the values of variables under its names instead of right from it (on the "Vars" tab), because these can be long as well

    Action Filtering

    Seb · 0 · Posted

    Tasker has something of an issue with Actions becoming outdated when new versions are introduced. Widget V2 is a great example of this - for most users it completely removes the existing Widget Actions (`Set Widget Icon`, `Set Widget Label`, etc etc). Obviously those Actions need to be preserved for backwards compatibility & the rare edge-case when they're useful, but that's not a frequent occurrence. 

    I think it would be helpful to auto-hide a lot of those Actions (or even Action Groups, like `Zoom` or `Matter Home Automation`. 

    How I envisage this working

    When presented with the `Select Action Category`

    I know i can use android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE but that itself is desperated and event fires more than 20 times when there is a change.

    🐍 Feature Request: Python Interpreter in Tasker

    uslashreader (ChippyTech) · 1 · Last reply by Azek

    Summary

    Add support for running Python code natively inside Tasker tasks, similar to the current Java interpreter, to give users a broader scripting option.

    Why This Matters

    Ease of Use: Python is widely regarded as simpler and more readable than Java, making it more approachable for beginners while still powerful for advanced users.

    Ecosystem Power: With its vast standard library and third-party packages, Python enables advanced automations like data analysis, machine learning, web APIs, and IoT device control directly from Tasker.

    Community Adoption: Python has one of the largest developer communities, meaning Tasker could benefit from a huge ecosystem of

    Leaving an SSID does not start the WireGuard tunnel

    Doron · 3 · Last reply by Doron

    Hello folks,

    I bought Tasker mainly for one thing: to stop/start a WireGuard tunnel when in/out of a specific WiFi SSID, respectively. Quite a straightforward mission.

    So I have two profiles: One for being inside the SSID (Wifi Connected, with the SSID name), linked  to a TunnelDown task

    and one for being outside that SSID (Wifi Connected, same SSID name, "invert"), linked to a TunnelUp task:

    When going into the SSID, the task takes place correctly and the tunnel is brought down. However when leaving the SSID, the opposite task is not performed, and the tunnel remains down.

    Ask for storage access permission for all relevant tasks and actions after restoring a backup to a different device

    bege · 0 · Posted

    I restored the Tasker settings to a second device (same model) I had installed a Custom-ROM on. The backup contained many tasks that need storage access. When one creates such a task manually Tasker requests permission for that access. This does not happen when tasks are restored from a backup. Now each time such a task is triggered by a profile for the first time, Tasker requests storage permission. But the request neither contains the task nor the requested directory. This is very inconvenient and may lead to data loss.

    I have two requests:

    1. Short term: Show the requesting task

    Combine Music Play action with Play Ringtone action

    Moshe Siani · 0 · Posted

    How about adding option in the Music Play action to choose an internal ringtone from the ringtones/notifications menu of the device? There is the Play Ringtone action but as you know it can do a lot of harm (less funny) when you get loop of audio playing. I would even suggest to remove it completely and adding all the options to the Music Play action but i know you afraid of breaking stuff for users.

    Stop parent task (anonymous or named) and Stop all caller tasks

    valecnik · 0 · Posted

    I have two smaller proposals:

    1. 

    it would be useful to add to Stop task possibility of:

    - stopping parent task (both anonymous and named) 

    - stopping all parent caller tasks

    currently it can be done by parsing %caller() variable but it is difficult and not possible to obtain task name for anonymous tasks

    2. 

    Possibility to set cooldown times on profiles for both active and inactive states (currently is possible for active state only)

    These two things can be useful for situations where for example I need profile with state WiFi connected and need to prevent situations where I'm

    "Wait Until Command" Action

    Christian WS · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    The command system is incredibly powerful and simple to use, it can be used as a way to simplify various projects and tasks into a single one that takes the command and does stuff based on the command itself.

    It is easier than "Run Task" because the syntax is significantly easier. However, the drawback is that if you have one task that triggers a command and another that gets triggered by it, the first one has no way of knowing if the second one finished without problem, as there's no "return variable" option and no way to logically allow it.

    Variable driven scene checkboxes and toggles

    In scenes could you please update checkbox and toggles so that their default value can be variable driven? Currently you can only choose of they are on or off instead of setting the state with a variable.

    Autonotification categories being ignored with Samsung One UI 7.0

    I have a task set up to look for alarm when specific notification categories are received. After updating to the Samsung One UI 7.0, it appears to no longer check for this and instead alarms on any notification matching the criteria, regardless of the specified Notification Category Name.

    Auto-destroy scene on dismiss

    Maz · 0 · Posted

    If I show a scene and check "Continue Task Immediately" it is cumbersome to destroy it manually if the user leaves.

    Can we have an Option (e.g. Checkbox) to auto-destroy a scene on dismiss (back button press, home button press, ...) for the "Show Scene" task?

    Hi.

    The event &SCREENON& is no more sent to Autowear with Wear OS 5.1 but is sent when we move back to the watch homescreen from a tile, from the quick settings panel or from the notification panel.

    &SCREENOFF& is still OK.

    Please include decimal number in "Task" variables "Variable add > Value" I suggest four zero after points = 0.0001, hence can use it

    Ahmad K. · 0 · Posted

    Hello,

    In tasker app there is no decimal

    Please include decimal number in "Task"  variables "Variable add > Value"

    1. I can not add decimal number like 0.5 or 0.3 or 0.003, I suggest to inlude three to four zero after points = 0.0001, hence can use it
