When I define a profile I can use matches (eg * + ! /) But I find that very limited.

Example:

Profile> State> Net> WiFi Near:

SSID: Famil+ [...] (But I would like to use it like this) SSID: Famil(y|iar)

So I can filter much better than using matches. And you can change this search/filter pattern in the profile itself or in preferences.

Sometimes I disable tasker for short times in order to hide scenes or do other things to keep tasker from changing certain profiles. I unintentionally then forget that tasker is disabled and wonder why nothing is updating or working only to remember that I disabled tasker. Would be great if tasker had a built in widget that would allow you to toggle tasker on and off and that told you the current status of tasker at any given moment. 

When bluetooth connected to a specific device is active (and shown in the profils tab) the trigger "doesn't launch" the associate task.

If I manually launch the task (by the tasks tab) I confirm that the task is working.

Also I can see the trigger and the task call in the execution log, and the differents actions inside the tasks without any error. But the actions are not actually performed.

I tried different actions (launch app, pop-up notification, ...) with the same results.

I try on another phone (same model, and same configuration) with the same result.

My phone is

I have a task that looks for a certain word in an SMS message and plays a media sound file. Could not seem to get it to consistently work. I have a Samsung S10+ and phone just got upgraded to Android Q

Autolocation related: autolocation activity triggered and the specific task is performed but it continuely keep performaing the task e.g. i set state autolocation activity driving, then perform task to open google map. but performs well but keep performing it again and again.

A created scene won't appear when the conditions are met. The other tasks in the sequence play just fine, and when I play the sequence manually it appears. I've already tried incompatibility management, all the "how to show" options, and waiting a time before showing it, with no results. I'm using MIUI 11 with no root permissions.

Also, the scene stays greenlighted as if it was running

Tasker has actions for pressing physical buttons and for Long-pressing the Power button , and apparently (but not on my phone with Tasker 5.7.2)) double-tapping the power button and long-pressing the volume control buttons.  What about extra-long pressing the Power button?  On my phone (Droid Turbo 2, Android 7.0), tapping the power button blackens the screen/locks the phone, long-pressing the power button brings up the Power Off screen with only one option, and if you press the power button even longer, the Power Off screen disappears and the phone reboots.  Can this be done without rooting the phone?

Tasker seems to be having some trouble accessing some of calendars on my Google account (but not all of them).

As demonstrated in the attached screencast, the same event, moved from one calendar to a new one I created to test the issue, is either seen or not by the calendar state condition in tasker.

At first I believed it to be caused by the accent in the calendar name ("CongésVieux" in the screencast), but the new calendar created for the test also include the same accent ("Congés").

The problem also appears with events in the Google local holidays calendar

Hi there, 

After the update for my Samsung Galaxy S10 to Android 10. The wifi connected variable does not trigger my action eventhough my phone is clearly connected to the specific wifi SSID I've set. Before the update, everthing was working flawlessly.

Hi,

I have a few different profiles which mostly modify the volume of phone ringer, etc which are triggered by Wifi Near states. For instance, while at home at night or at work, these profiles reduce the volume of the ringer. I also have a "default" profile which has a condition that it activates only if none of the other profiles are active and this default returns volumes to normal and does a few other things. Since using Tasker on my Huawei P30 Pro, I've been noticing that when I'm at home or at work, which means the @home

It would be nice to be able to export the description to storage.

Is it possible that the detection of (wireless?) charging is slow/unreliable when motion detection setting in preferences is turned on?

Background: I have a home profile that becomes active when either wifi connection OR location (geofence) indicate that I am at home. Since I do not want the home profile to be active when my car profile is active I also added the condition “not car-profile active”. The car profile becomes active as soon as wireless charging is detected and stays active as long as the phone is in contact with the wireless charger. – Now, when I leave home,

Similar to Pushbullet's integration, I request the ability, after intercepting a particular Join notification but not all of them.

Hello,

when I try to sign-in / authorize to GoogleDrive I only get a spinner on a white window and then nothing happens. I am on 5.9 now but I am quite sure the problem has been persistent for quite some time and several updates. As a result backup to GD never worked for me. Does anybody have a clue how I could solve this?

I get the following error message: Unknown Google Error

Thanks

Paul

I am trying to set this

Variable Set [ Name:%First_message To:1 Do Maths:Off Append:Off ]

But to and do math and append are missing. I downloaded the Google play version and all the plugins. Am I missing something ?

I am New to Tasker.

Thanks

When using the action "Mobile Data Set On" I get the following error:

Hi, 

I'm trying to restrict network access (Wi-Fi & Data) to Gmail and WhatsApp, i.e. no access for certain period of time. The problem is that whenever there were new messages in "restricted" time, then they don't pop-up automatically when "unrestricted" time kicks in. However if they are received in "unrestricted" time, then they do pop-up. Now I have to open apps and see, if there are any new messages. What I would like to achieve - is to disable network access to these apps, and if there were new messages in "restricted" time, then to get pop-up in for

We have orientation based states, but nothing to allow us to trigger actions based on change in orientation without concerning about what orientation the phone was and currently in.

This will allow us to react faster to phone being picked up, being flipped, is held, etc.

As per "https://tasker.joaoapps.com/userguide/en/icons.html#user" I installed icons.  I can select these for tasks, but there is no way to select the icons in Action Edit->Notify. Either this is an oversight in the app or in the documentation.

Currently Tasker can only store images into DCIM/Tasker which has the problem that Google's Photos app will index them and upload them to Google Photos without the ability to exclude that directory. We should be able to select any target directory.
