    Brighter torch

    Rowan Begg · 3 · Last reply by Rowan Begg

    The torch toggle in Tasker is ok, but not very bright. To get full brightness you need to use a plugin such as Task Light (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devuni.flashlight.tasklight)

    Could we please have full brightness torch?

    don't check "Min Activate Signal Level" only when activating the WiFi near

    Fabio Spelta · 0 · Posted

    According to the documentation:

     

    http://tasker.dinglisch.net/userguide/en/help/sh_wifi_near.html

     

    Min Activate Signal Level: the minimum signal strength to activate the context. It's ignored once the context is active.

     

    I think this is bad design. It should be checked along with any other possible causes to trigger or not the event. Otherwise it's not possible to choose to activate a task only as long as the condition is true - alias, as long as the device is at a certain range from an AP - and to stop when that is not the case any longer.

     

    Thanks for caring

    Navigate into MicroSD and OTG for file operations

    Shane Duchock · 0 · Posted

    I would like more options for storage.  Backup to external MicroSD, OTG, or even cloud support would be nice. If the device becomes unbootable, external storage would be the only way to salvage a Tasker database.  Or if the device is lost, cloud storage would be the only hope.  Titanium Backup has this and it has bailed me out in 2 devices.

    Better support for HTML in actions like Text/Image Dialog or List Dialog

    Moshe Siani · 0 · Posted

    There are a lot of times when you want to show some text data on the screen but right now if you want make a style change to your text you are limited to use mostly 3 options: 1. Scenes which has serious problem with sharing with other people devices. 2. AutoTools Web Screen which is for more advanced users. 3. AutoTools Dialog seems to not support RTL languages.

    I am suggesting to give more html tags support for more popular actions like Text/Image Dialog or List Dialog that most people use. I would prefer a more "native" style so

    mjpeg video in webview do not shrink

    I'm using a webview in a scene to show a mjpeg stream from an ip camera URL. The video do not shrink in the webview so only a part of the video size is visible. Maybe a config parameter could do the work

    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.

    Fix for "HTTP Request" Not Working with Google Drive Links

    jaydeel · 5 · Last reply by jaydeel

    I've been troubleshooting why Tasker's "HTTP Request" action fails to download from a Google Drive link, even though "HTTP Get" works perfectly. After some digging, I found a simple fix that makes "HTTP Request" behave like "HTTP Get" in this case:

    When using the "HTTP Request" action to download a file (like an image) from a URL such as:

    Make sure you do both of the following:

    1. Enable "Automatically Follow Redirects"

    2. Add a Mime type custom header in the Headers field:

    You can also add:

    …to better emulate a browser.

    Security Vulnerabilities on Data Exports

    Peyman Babazadeh · 0 · Posted

    When Tasker has an active Lock Code and "Backup User Vars/Prefs" option is unchecked in preferences: 1. we shouldn't be able to export backup data, through the 3-button menu on top right, before inputting correct Lock Code

     

    2. Project variable values shouldn't be included in the backup data. Same as global variables, they should be omitted in the Tasker backup data

    Name tag for Tasker licenses

    Moshe Siani · 0 · Posted

    Having more than one Tasker license makes it more difficult to know which license belong to which device. That is why i am suggesting to have the option in https://taskernet.com/?licenses to add a name/Name tag to each license so it would be no brainer to know which one belongs to which device.

    Autolocation activity not generating

    spammy · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Monitor is running but nothing is detected. It has all the permissions it has asked for. Geofences and location are not required and so are disabled.

    This is running on Graphene OS but Play Services is installed.

    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 · 0 · Posted

    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.

    Feature Request: Support Named Regex Groups in If ~R Conditions

    JRG · 0 · Posted

    Please extend If ~R conditionals to support named regular expression capture groups (e.g., (?<ssid>.*)), just as the Simple Match/Regex action does. This would bring consistency across matching actions and allow cleaner logic in reusable tasks by eliminating the need for intermediate extraction steps.

    Example:

    …should create the variable %ssid if matched, just like Simple Match/Regex already does.

    Thank you!

    Secondary urls are not anymore standard opened by Tasker

    Jack · 10 · Last reply by Jack

    Hi.

    I use links linke "tasker://secondary?app=tc" to launch apps from my walltablet dashboards via Tasker.

    This was working fine, one click and the action started.

    But after updating Play Store Tasker version from 6.4.15 to 6.5.9 the browser asks me how to handle the links.

    Tested on Samsung Internet and Chrome.

    So now I need two clicks where before one was enough.

    How to get the "old" behavoir back?

    Thanks in further!

    Error Remote Execution JSON File

    Yasratcha · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I want to report the remote execution problem. I couldn't import neither Google Cloud Service Account nor Google Cloud Firebase JSON files in Preference > Misc configuration as per step 3 from here. I have imported the JSON files using magnifying glass and copy-paste it directly to the corresponding input field, but it keeps showing error something like "Invalid JSON file, null" even though the JSON files of mine are not error and formatted correctly (you could see this post attachments for the evidence).

    I have been downloaded the APK from your google drive (this) based on the solved problem before,

    Copy File Action Corrupts Data and Truncates Files

    **Example:**

    - Source: 910 bytes text file

    - After Copy File: 9 bytes with garbage content `J¬ºK¿®+!`

    **Working alternatives (same files):**

    - Read File + Write File = perfect copy

    - Shell `cat "source" > "dest"` = perfect copy

    - Tasker version: 6.5.9

    - Android 15
