    Autoinput loses Accessibility

    Dan Muller · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I have a Samsung S24 running Android 15, everything is up-to-date, Tasker and Autoinput are set for unrestricted background use and Tasker is set to keep Accessibility running for itself and Autoinput. Once a day or so, I get the Accessibility notification that Autoinput service is running, so all seems to be OK.

     

    But every few days, Accessibility stops for Autoinput and I have to turn it off and back on. I've also noticed that, when it does work, the Autoinput action takes much longer than it did previously. This all went south about the time that my phone

    Scene Editor > slider events

    Javier Valencia · 0 · Posted

    We already have "on value selected" when the user releases the slider in a different position.

    It would be nice to have "on value changed" so we can do things while the user is still sliding it.

    Wifi connect doesn't work

    Borpo · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Brand new install of Tasker on a Fairphone 6 running /e/OS version 3.0.2 (Android 15).

    I created a dead simple task to connect to a specific wifi network, but it fails. I get an error notification prompting me to email the dev ("Can't connect to wifi - Please click here to contact the developer about this issue") . I did a fair bit of research, but everything I saw about wifi not working was a few years old.

    I had things working fine on my Fairphone 5 running /e/OS version 2.9 (Android 13) so I'm guessing it's something about the

    Copy the open-source Be Nice app's split screen functionality to fix Tasker

    Grinn · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    There is an open-source app called Be Nice that seems to have successfully implemented split screen support for modern Android devices. Perhaps Tasker could use it for inspiration on getting its Split Screen feature working again. Here's the source on GitHub: tkuenneth/BeNice: Split-screens on Android made easy

    (Note: I'm not affiliated with Be Nice. I just ran into it on Reddit.)

    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

    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

    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.

    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,

    In the application context selection screen, make the frame around selected applications higher contrast

    Adam Logan · 0 · Posted

    I can't see the difference at native resolution. I have to zoom to maximum zoom to see if an app is selected, and even then, it's hard to see. Native Resolution Maximum Zoom Another idea is to dim the overall tile for unset, and have selected apps at regular brightness. It just needs to be easier to see.

    Search throughout labels

    GianMaxTheo · 0 · Posted

    After more than ten years of Tasker usage, I have had the need to search for keywords in labels and found that, strangely enough, they are not considered part of the user data. 

    I don't know if that would be really useful to anyone; I haven't tried to use it for ages. However, I would like to suggest this feature. Thank you.

    Searching Tasker Global Variable Values

    Sharif Salah · 0 · Posted

    Hey, 

    I know how to use the search functionality within Tasker to search for the name of a Global Variable or array I have in mind. Supposing however, I have a value in mind and I want the search to retrieve a list of Global variables that currently match that value. I think it would be neat if that were possible. 

    Many thanks
