    Biometric Authentication Activity to take over back/recents.

    Ian Grody · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Could we please have options to take control of back/recent button when Authentication activity is used?

    In scenes, we can launch them as activities and capture the recent and back buttons and reassign their uses when open. This function would allow to prevent people attempting to bypass the feature.

    Thank you.

    NearCell, NearWifi only with Location service on Android9

    registry · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi, Neither the NearCell, nor the NearWifi/WifiConnected functions work when the Location service is turned off. Cmon' it's not as expected... I have to turn on the location service to get the info: Am I connected to wifi or not??? In this case if I need any info about my location (or the reachability of the Wifi), should I turn on the location service? It's crapy. Android 9 Nokia 7.1 Takser: 5.6

    Plus ins need to be manually edited after tasker data restore on new device

    insaned · 0 · Posted

    Upon installation of a new device and the tasker restoration of data, tasker plug ins need to be re-edited manually (sometimes just click the edit button and exit is enough) to be able to work as it looks like otherwise it won't generate the variables. Even if each plug in app itself is opened beforehand, it stills need to be edited in tasker.

    Shake sensitivity sometimes becomes too high, rebooting fixes

    Moleculor · 0 · Posted

    I have a simple profile set to go off when the phone is shaked 'left-right'.

    Sensitivity is very low. Duration is very long. Though I don't know what either of those things means (does 'very low' mean it it takes a very strong shake, or a very small shake to hit the very low threshold? Does 'very long' mean I have to shake it for a very long time, or it tracks motion for a very long time and looks to see if I slowly shook the phone?), it still functions about as I expect: I need a strong, firm,

    trigger doesn´t fire no more

    hanss · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi,

    tasker runs on a Huawei P10.

    after some days of try and error, i got the settings so tasker fires the

    trigger for %BATT ervery one% of %BATT changes.

    I tried it over 24 hours in power-saving mode and it works reliable.

    Some days later, without changes anything in the settings, the %BATT trigger doesn´t

    fire after 2hours in power-saving mode and I find no solution to fix it.

    This seems to be very unreliable and it would be fine if you have a solution.

    Greetings from Bavaria, Germany

    Change Tasker's Quick Settings Tile label and App Shortcut Tasks

    Vyza · 0 · Posted

    Tasker's default Quick Settings Tile is very useful for disabling/enabling Tasker, but can its label be changed from "Toggle" to "Tasker" to better describe its function?

    In addition, can all of Tasker's default App Shortcut Tasks be included in the search list so that the App Shortcut Tasks can customized (i.e., reordered, remove individual commands, add other)?

    Profiles not working on Xiaomi MIA1 Android PIE 9.0 when screen is locked

    achar · 6 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hello, i'm using tasker for several years now for some routine scripts (launch music player when bluetooth headset is connected then launch music, send domoticz commands when i come home, that kind of things). I updated my phone (Xiaomi MIA1) to Android 9.0 friday night and now tasker is not able to activate any profile at all. The app is of course removed from battery optimization and is always running. I activated all permissions and accessibility either.

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it did nothing. If i test the profiles one by one it works correctly. Thanks.

    AutoNotification can't intercept notification buttons for SMS Organizer and Single Whatsapp notification

    Soumya Ranjan Mahunt · 0 · Posted

    I have a profile that executes some task when notification is cancelled.

    When i cancel a group of notification in whatsapp it doesn't execute task for last notification also doesn't execute task for single notification. On testing i discovered the button text variable isn't also set for the given condition.

    For SMS Organizer although the button text is set but the button action isn't performed.

    Media volume - Level different via profile

    Lars Olsen · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi.

    When a media volume task is executed from a profile, the level is lower than if you execute the task directly.

    Example: I have a profile that executes a task when a spesific bluetooth device is connected.  The task is set to open Spotify, wait for 10 seconds and adjust the media volume to max (30). But the volume is always set to lower than max. I have to reach down in my pocket to get the 2 or 3 last clicks up to max. The task works as intended if I press the play button inside the task

    Context inside tasks

    Soumya Ranjan Mahunt · 0 · Posted

    The idea is in a task flow hold on untill something is changed or something is accomplished.

    There can be an optional wait time specified for maximum time to wait.

    Like in a task wait untill internet available, or wait untill a variable changed(although it is available in wait untill task, there is no option for maximum time to wait). Moniter something in between a task and proceed after it changed status. 

    Using multiple profiles can accomplish this but giving this option would really be helpful.

    I'd like to be able to use the number picker in a scene for picking a time, but I don't want to have to scroll through every number. I'd like to be able to scroll by increments of my choosing  such as 5, 10, or 15 to make it easier to pick a time

    Add option to disable badges for newly added actions

    Matej Drobnič · 0 · Posted

    As much as I love Tasker, this is not the social media app that needs to grab my attention. It is a tool that I use to automate my workflows. 

    I don't like the fact that Tasker seems to place notification badges on new actions. It creates annoyance after every update and it makes me annoyed at the new features (exactly opposite feeling to the one I wanted).

    It would be useful if there was a way to disable that.

    Tasker Crashes

    anonymized · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Tasker occasionally crashes. Quite old problem and have not been fixed still. And when it does crash, it also triggers all or most of the tasks to action, apparently all at the same time. This is very old problem since Tasker 4 and have had this with Android 5, 6 and 7.

    Might be some bug if too much going on at the same time? Maybe should optimize my stuff and give different priorities to tasks (as I have never done that)? Or maybe need more powerful smartphone to run my stuff without crashing?

    I have observed that crash phenomenon

    Run Log Enhancement: Split Screen Real Time Animated Flow Chart

    anonymized · 0 · Posted

    To get a better sense as to how your complex structures operate it would be great if run log could be somehow visualized through live animated flow charts. Would be able to debug quicker, make improvements quicker, and able to create and understand more complex systems. The whole awesomeness of Tasker is after all making programming easier and it could also break barriers as to how complex things could be made by making the creation process easier.
