    Add option use OpenAI API key

    urkindagood · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Please add support for OpenAI. I have some problems with the current AI options.

    1. Google Cloud Payment rejected my debit card.
    2. Open Router has very limited free tier.

    Open AI accepted the same debit card rejected by Google and the free tier credit is also far more generous than Open Router. People can opt in to give away their data as well to upscale the daily limit.

    This is just personal choice at this point but I like their dashboard and credits balance as well. I top up $5 into my balance and limit $1 for monthly usage. I never

    Notify action, perform an action when tapping instead of dismiss

    Bertie Beck · 1 · Last reply by Bertie Beck

    Tapping the notification created with the notify action dismisses it. An option to perform an action instead (as autonotification does) would be helpful and also prevent accidental dismisses.

    Add an action to change Taskers language

    Roland · 0 · Posted

    Sometimes it's useful or necessary to find something in tasker to change the tasker language to English. But for retrieving the correct results for datetime parse actions in correct language tasker needs to use the correct language again, so it's would be handy to have the tasker action to change it's language automatically.

    Action Filtering

    Seb · 0 · Posted

    Tasker has something of an issue with Actions becoming outdated when new versions are introduced. Widget V2 is a great example of this - for most users it completely removes the existing Widget Actions (`Set Widget Icon`, `Set Widget Label`, etc etc). Obviously those Actions need to be preserved for backwards compatibility & the rare edge-case when they're useful, but that's not a frequent occurrence. 

    I think it would be helpful to auto-hide a lot of those Actions (or even Action Groups, like `Zoom` or `Matter Home Automation`. 

    How I envisage this working

    Add Support for User Created Actions and Contexts

    aasswwddd · 2 · Last reply by aasswwddd

    Recently, we’ve gotten a Java Code feature that allows users to interact directly with Android APIs. This gives us the freedom to create custom solutions however we like.

    However, to use the code, we still have to call the task where our code resides using Perform Task, which has limitations when used as an “interface.”

    Unlike built-in Tasker actions, Perform Task only allows users to set two variables. While we can technically pass any variables, we still have to make sure their names match, which isn’t ideal.

    Since Tasker doesn’t currently have a way to read a task’s description or

    Exclude logs of a specific profile or task in Run Log

    SK · 0 · Posted

    Hi,

    I have a profile that is using a for loop, which makes logs very long and unreadable. 

    Can we have a function to exclude a profile or a task in logs?

    Thanks.

    There is an action "Get Network Info" avilable but i think there is also need of Connectivity Changed / Network Changed event as per 

    https://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/connectivity-status-type

    I know i can use android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE but that itself is desperated and event fires more than 20 times when there is a change.

    Add an option in "Set Variable" to designate it as a PROJECT variable or a TASK variable

    thomas · 0 · Posted

    There is currently no way to programmatically create project or task variables. Only global variables or fleeting local variables that don't persist when the task ends. If you want something to be a task variable or project variable, you have to create it by hand within the gear menu for a task or project.

    PLEASE add a "storage" option when setting a variable that allows us to designate a variable as a project or Task variable. This would enable the programmatic creation of these variables.

    Feature Request: AutoInput v2

    Muhammad Nizamuddin Aulia · 1 · Last reply by Seb

    In AutoInput v2, there is a "Wait For Element" action that waits until an element appears on the screen.

    My current AutoInput workflow is like this: click(id, %button_id) --> waitForElement(id, %loader_id) --> click(id, %button_id)

    Since the loader's element ID is often hard to get (as it disappears instantly due to fast loading), could you add a "Wait For Element to Disappear" action that waits for an element to disappear?

    This way, the workflow would only depend on %button_id and would become like this: click(id, %button_id) --> waitForElementDisappear(id, %button_id) --> click(id, %button_id)

    *Note: The loader element makes the button disappear from

    Widget V2 rotation, blur, and element filtering

    Jackson Moormeier · 0 · Posted

    Would love to see a few additions to tasker widget v2! I'd be able to leave kustom entirely if it had the following:

    1. the ability to rotate elements (either around centre or other defined anchor points)

    2. the ability to filter elements by other elements (i.e. remove portion of element that's overlapped by another element)

    3. Adding a "blurr" option in addition to color would be sick as well!

    🐍 Feature Request: Python Interpreter in Tasker

    uslashreader (ChippyTech) · 1 · Last reply by Azek

    Summary

    Add support for running Python code natively inside Tasker tasks, similar to the current Java interpreter, to give users a broader scripting option.

    Why This Matters

    Ease of Use: Python is widely regarded as simpler and more readable than Java, making it more approachable for beginners while still powerful for advanced users.

    Ecosystem Power: With its vast standard library and third-party packages, Python enables advanced automations like data analysis, machine learning, web APIs, and IoT device control directly from Tasker.

    Community Adoption: Python has one of the largest developer communities, meaning Tasker could benefit from a huge ecosystem of

    Stop an app without using root

    Current kill app only works when use root is checked. If possible, I'd like the ability to stop another app on an unrooted phone (this is the only remaining thing I still need root for).

    Get Task execution ID and Stop a task using (also) its execution ID

    Stefano · 0 · Posted

    Hi, it would be very nice

    1. An action to get, inside a task, its execution ID
    2. Stop a task execution using its execution ID (instead of its name)

    These features would be very useful expecially with multiple instances of the same task running together

    Ask for storage access permission for all relevant tasks and actions after restoring a backup to a different device

    bege · 0 · Posted

    I restored the Tasker settings to a second device (same model) I had installed a Custom-ROM on. The backup contained many tasks that need storage access. When one creates such a task manually Tasker requests permission for that access. This does not happen when tasks are restored from a backup. Now each time such a task is triggered by a profile for the first time, Tasker requests storage permission. But the request neither contains the task nor the requested directory. This is very inconvenient and may lead to data loss.

    I have two requests:

    1. Short term: Show the requesting task

    Feature Request: Indicator for Ignored Cells in "Cell Near" Recent Cell List

    S. M. M. Kaisar · 0 · Posted

    When editing a “Cell Near” state, the Recently Connected Cell List currently shows:

    ✅ Tick mark for cells already added to the trigger list

    ❌ Cross mark for cells not yet added

    However, it does not indicate which cells are already in the Ignore list. This makes it difficult to manage or fine-tune ignored cells, especially when the cell list is long.

    🎯 Feature Request:

    Please add a third indicator (e.g., a grey mark, pause icon, or any visual cue) beside the cell IDs that are already added to the Ignore list, within the “Recently Connected Cell” popup. This will

    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.
