    Intermittent failures to launch app from time profile

    Steve Rothkin · 0 · Posted

    This problem started maybe around 6 weeks ago (it worked fine for many years before that). I have a profile (attached) which starts the GoodSync app at midnight so that the schedule on my laptop can sync from the phone. It worked fine for many years, but over the last 6-8 weeks, it is failing to launch the goodsync server at least half the time from the schedule. The latest failures are in the attached screen shots.

    Note that

    • Running task manually always works fine
    • Goodsync app has all requested permissions
    • Tasker app has all requested permissions EXCEPT for Camera,

    Remote action execution

    Productivity · 1 · Last reply by Productivity

    Hi Joao,

    I have downloaded the latest version of Tasker and am excited about the Remote Action Execution functionality. I currently have two devices, a Samsung S24+ and a Samsung Note9. I followed the steps you indicated in your tutorial and am stuck at step 3, almost at the end. The problem is that on my Samsung Note9, when I try to select the file, either the Google Cloud Service Account or the Google Cloud Firebase, it seems that it doesn't recognize them; it simply doesn't show them as selectable files. Do you know what might be causing this situation?

    Autowear switch pairing to other devices

    Productivity · 0 · Posted

    Hi Joao,

    Regarding the last update enhancing device interoperability, sending commands, autoshare... its a good opportunity for tasker little brother, autowear.

    One of the main painpoints of wearos devices is the lack of simultaneous connectivity by bluetooth (the lowest energy consuming connectivity channel). Therefore it reduces its own capability to use the smartwatch as an standalone remote controller for everything (headphones, phones, computers, smartglasses (hot topic right now)

    Some functionalities could be:

    - Toggle pairing to previous device.

    - Set favourite pairing devices.

    Regards

    I'm having the following issue when I try to install it from Brazil.

    "It was not possible to complete the purchase. Update your Google Play account settings so that the selected country matches your country of residence. Visit the Help Center for more information."

    I have already confirmed it and the information from Google Play is correct. I tested it on two different devices.

    Pick photos action returns with uri that isn't useable when using send intent

    Moshe Siani · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    In short, using Pick Photo action returns with the images URI path but when trying to use it in send intent for example it fails. To fix that you need to get the full path using SQL Query like here:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/1enzuix/how_to_copy_filesmedia_from_your_android_phone_to/

    The example is shown below the title: "Pick Photos/Media dialog".

    Can you maybe have another variable/array inside the Pick Photos action that will hold the full path.

    Can't use array function in array pop action

    Moshe Siani · 0 · Posted

    In array pop i can't write an array function unless i put it inside a variable first.

    For example if i want to write inside the field Position in array pop action this function: %array(#?index) it won't allow me to do so because the keyboard is only keypads (numbers).

    My suggestion if possible is to change the keyboard or to have an option inside the variables list to create a new one because right now i can only choose a variable from the list.

    Help with Home Assistant Integration

    Jason · 0 · Posted

    Hi João Dias,

    I'm so grateful for all the amazing features you've brought to automation and I absolutely love Tasker and have been using it to do everything for a long time now.

    I've just recently started using Home Assistant and want to integrate my existing tasker code in both directions to either trigger "things" in HA or "trigger" things in Tasker from HA.

    However, I've followed you're guide (https://tasker.joaoapps.com/home_automation/home_assistant.html#initial) but have had no success in making the integration work. I noticed that the file structure in HA has altered slightly from your guide "/config/blueprints/automation/tasker" which now sees "blueprints" as one

    The AutoInput app (and maybe other AutoApps that share similar base code) will begin to crash whenever you open the edit window if you do not have Google Play Services installed. Please find a way to make this error not fatal.

    This is the standalone version downloaded from your website.

    Add filter to VAR tab for view project/task vars the same way as global vars.

    Victor Rudakov · 0 · Posted

    That is, as a simple list with values ​​(in addition to viewing in the project/task properties). This is a more convenient and compact way to view all project/task variables (especially for structured variables with JSON text). The filter can be a single choice from a list of all projects and tasks, for example. PS: It would be useful if the user could select (in the UI options) which filters (indexed, empty,...) should be added to the VAR tab.

    Tasker freezes when running messages task

    E · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi,

    I have a simple text message rule set up where if text messages matches regex of certain URL, it will save it to array and launch the URL. This has worked perfectly for a while.

    Until now. When I receive the message with the URL, Tasker freezes. If the application is closed, tapping to open it will result in it crashing. If it is already open on my screen, it is touch disabled. However in many circumstances 30 seconds later the URL will end up opening. I see that Tasker processes it, but it freezes and crashes in the
