Hey Tasker founder, sometimes it happens that the accessibility permission of an app remains turned on, but it doesn't work. An error message appears stating that 'this service is malfunctioning.' Also, you mentioned an update from nine months ago that if someone turns off accessibility for any app, it will automatically turn back on. However, in my Android system, the accessibility permission of an app stays turned on, but it doesn't work, and I keep getting the 'this service is malfunctioning' error. Tasker doesn't seem to be aware of this issue because it is designed to function when the accessibility

well，when jslet run err,there are two lines text that will not know why there are errs. may be better show whole content.

It would be amazing if we could use MDI icons in Tasker similar to how they are used in home-automation platforms like Home Assistant.

All that needs to be done to choose a particular icon (a cat, for example) is define

icon: "mdi-cat"

and the cat icon is loaded. It would be great if, instead of including a very limited subset, Tasker could download an icon from materialdesignicons.com on-demand and cache it locally for use. The number of available icons is staggering!

Hello Taskers!

I would like to suggest a fix to something I don't necessarily consider a bug, but a weird behaviour sometimes, since I can't reproduce the error:

An AutoInput option to clear default variables/arrays before query.

I have a somewhat big task (more than 200 lines) that runs in loop, in which the first action was AutoInput UI Query, with infinite timeout, waiting for a specific app (99 Driver), and a 1 second wait between each loop.

It was running fine most of the time, but sometimes it started to do strange things not expected in the task.

After

I've been playing with the Pick Input Dialog action and have found that the ContactNumber type behaves differently to that of the Send SMS Search Number option, even though they seem to do exactly the same thing. When using the Pick Input Dialog there is a long delay after selecting a contact but selecting a contact with the search function in Send SMS is immediate. I understand that these two actions may not be completely the same but the underlying code might be (?) So my question is, can the Pick Input Dialog be enhanced so that it behaves in

The logcat event is such an amazing tool but I wish there were more filters!

The additional filters are of course optional and should work in tandem with each other via boolean operators.

I'll give you a quick example of what I mean. Imagine a log of the following structure:

[Servicename]: [1st fixed string] [variable string, a random id for example] [2nd fixed string] [irrelevant]

The filter would not work consistently in this case due to the changing nature of the log. However, the logcat event could work if we had two filters set up like this:

Filter 1: [1st

tasker have android accessibility permission,so can you add a feature that's allows to copy any text from screen's uncopyable text , like in "quora website" we can't copy text from android ,but with "universial copy" app we can easily copy any text on screen..so can you add this feature in tasker,,why i use "universial copy" app if i have "tasker" app.why i give some extra ram to other app?...so thats why,,,tasker is an exilent app,,and i know that its possible,,so please add the feature,,and yes its totally leagal feature,,you can see "universial copy" app in playstore..its leagal and usefull.so i

Hi again, 

Could you please include an additional option within the "test display" action to check whether the notification/ status bar is displayed or hidden?  Possibly, in addition,  you could add notification/status bar state as a profile...

Thanks,

Hi Joao

Tasker enables adding buttons in the Quick Settings toolbar, and setting each button to execute a Task. This is done in the Preferences screen, under the "Actions" tab.

Currently Quick Settings buttons that are created by Tasker, behave like this: Regular Tap executes the defined task, and Long Tap opens Tasker's Preferences screen.

The behavior of the second one (Long Tap) is a bit of waste. Instead of having all Tasker created buttons to lead to the Preferences screen upon long tapping them, it would be much more useful If we can define for each button, a Long

Feature request: When outputting variables' values to a task (i.e., adding a row to a Google sheet or text file), instead of outputting "%evtprm8" if %evtprm8 is empty (as an example), output an empty or null string.

When I use the Google Sheets plug-in and when I export to text file as CSV, whenever Tasker encounters a variable with an empty value it outputs the name of the variable instead of null or empty value. 

Is there already a pre-made project to all me to send a message to a list of cell numbers, either in a document on my phone or from my contacts, using MY CELL NUMBER? Hoping there is an automation that can do this with Tasker.   Example: I want to send "Hello this is Einstein, hope you are having a great week, let me know if I can help with your physics homework" to a list of 345 cell numbers I have in my contacts or from a document on my phone. Do this using MY CELL NUMBER so they all

Please introduce those variables following the ISO 8601 standard.

There are many scenarios in which we get a call and have to click on a specific key in number pad (DTMF) to give authentication/permission, etc. Example, Gate security system where when someonw tries to enter, we get a call, and have to click on a specific number/key to let them in. But entering a DTMF key doesn't seems to be an option currently with Tasker. This would be very useful

Hallo könnte mir wer Helfen ich bin Ziemlicher Neuling mit der Tasker App. Hätte folgendes vor: Ich habe Web Alert am Handy und möchte wenn ein Push Benachrichtigung kommt am Handy das diese Benachrichtig Gelesen und Weitegeschickt wird an einen Telegram Bot. Hätte jemand einen Vorschlag wie ich das in Tasker genau einstellen muss damit dies Funktioniert? Vielen Dank

Multiple times I have run into the problem where I want to set a variable i have not created yet, having to back out the entire action, create the variable and go back. The ability to create a variable whilst editing the set variable action would be great.

I find it convenient to collapse actions within a task (for example, within and if statement). However, that view isn't preserved - when I exit the task and then go back in, the actions are expanded again.

Please provide an to preserve the collapsed view?

Could you please add hibernate + lock screen as a task option for Greenify just like their widget? I don't want to add a second task to turn off screen after the first task, because Greenify turns off screen and hibernates the apps at the same time without showing each app individually.

Thank you in advance

No matter if the correct Google account is the first one logged in or if it's the last one logged in auto apps always chooses a random account to try and unlock my plugins. So basically none of my tasks run without hours of resetting up my phone each and every day. Yes I have read the faqs. My suggestion is to have auto apps ask the user which account to use for logging in plugins one time and always use that account or you could even have it ask upon each purchase which account to use and then you

Could you make it so that the variable randomize will allow decimals. So if I set the minimum to 2.000 and the maximum to 5 it will give a number between 2 and five up to 3 decimal places. For example minimum: 3 maximum: 5.00, 3.73 would be valid, 5 would be valid, but 5.1 would not. 

A suggestion if it might be easy enough.. the GetMusicActive() function could be a useful condition for many users, and could be more discoverable if it resided in Tasker Media category rather than tucked inside the Tasker Function action. Thanks
