    I would like to start my media player and also the "Floating Lyrics"

    An3as · 3 · Last reply by Andreas B.

    I would like to start my media player and also the "Floating Lyrics" of the Musixmatch app automatically as soon as the connection to ANdroid-Auto is established. Player and Musixmatch start without any problems with their interfaces. But I want the floating lyrics window to start immediately above the player and put the Musixmatch app (not floating lyrics) in the background.

    Scene layouts

    John Doe · 8 · Last reply by Tom Bruno

    Creating a scene for several device is just a pain, the activity layout should scale according the screen size of target device, it shouldn't use any absolute layout or fixed aspect ratio.

    Screen on time

    Any chance to add a variable that can fetch daily screen on time (not from last full charge) would be great.

    Action to fetch Fitness Data from Health Connect

    Ranjith Jayadevan · 1 · Last reply by zc m

    If tasker can natively fetch fitness data from Health Connect it would be great. There is an existing tasker plugin that does the job (GitHub - RafhaanShah/TaskerHealthConnect: Android Health Connect Plugin for Tasker). But it would be great if this can be included in Tasker. The plugin can fetch data for specified number of days and out put as json string. something similar would be nice.

    webdav support

    Jack · 0 · Posted

    Would be highly useful if webdav support is possible. The reason for asking is that a lot of people are wanting to degoogle, but some services and apps such as tasker only support Google Drive. Adding WebDAV support to be able to back up tasker settings and config would ensure less reliance on google. There was a post on this 5 years ago here

    WaitUntil Time OR Condition is met

    269red · 0 · Posted

    Goal: WaituntilTime TIME set in context (like implemented WaitUntil) is reached OR Condition is met

    The actual implemented WaitUntil waits forever until condition is met. That produces "hanging tasks". It continues to wait even if the task was stopped by STOP task... It also confused me the first time, as I thought the time that can be set is the max. time it waits (even if condition is not met). But it is the cycle time for checking the condition.

    New Global Variable %SCENES to List All Scenes Created (visible or not)

    Tasker Pro · 2 · Last reply by Joe Cornelius

    Right now there's variables for current Tasks running (%TRUN) as well as Profiles Active (%PACTIVE), Profiles Enabled (PENABLED), etc.

    However - there's no Global Variable that contains a list of all Scenes currently 'created' - meaning they're active, whether showing or not.

    So I am putting forth a request for a new Glboal Vairable %SCENES to contain the name of all active Tasker Scenes. Then using any of the names in this list a "Query Scene" action can be run to ascertain if it is visible, hidden, etc.

    Fingerprint sensor event

    Lssong99 · 7 · Last reply by Andy

    Add a fingerprint event so Tasker can respond to fingerprint scanner from any screen.

    This will enable things like turning off screen with fingerprint sensor, as well as execute any task with a touch of finger.

    Better have options to respond only to registered finger, as well as gestures (fingerprint swipt down... Etc.)

    Scenes can be used as WIDGETS on the Homescreen

    Tasker Pro · 9 · Last reply by João Dias

    This is something that has been sorely missing from Tasker for sooo long. The ability for a Tasker Scene to be placed as an anchorable widget on the homescreen.

    This eliminates the need for work-arounds like using Zooper or KLWP, etc. It'll probably involve developing a whole new widget for Tasker but it'll be worth it. If anyone can figure it out - it's you Joao!!

    Animation Effect on Scene

    Arif · 0 · Posted

    I hope you can add animations to make "show and destroy scene" seem more lively, such as:

    •pop-up: provides an attractive effect when used. attracts more user attention to something displayed in the scene.

    •fade: as in video cinematography, this can have a dramatic effect. suitable for some situations.

    Having a choice of effects on the scene will increase added value to the user experience.

    I hope you and the development team can consider the suggestions I gave.

    Thank You.

    Change the default task priority to something that can be changed, or to a very high number

    Jason Cooper · 0 · Posted

    This would allow tasks run from home screen to have priority over anything in the background. A dynamic starting priority would be huge for other reasons as well. It could default to 7 as currently operating, but be changed as needed.

    Customization in inputs dialogs and other alerts

    JasonYate · 1 · Last reply by JasonYate

    Add background color and text color options to dialogs for a touch of customization, useful if you are creating an app or scenes with specific colors that identify the design.
