    Bluetooth earphone key event detect

    Jackal Zhao · 0 · Posted

    Many of our wireless earphones have buttons to control music. Such as double tapping airpods to pause music. 

    The bluetooth earphone button does not trigger any key event on android phone, so that autoinput and other events can't capture the button event on bluetooth earphone directly. 

    So I wish Tasker can add an event to capture the bluetooth earphone button event, this will allow users make many useful remote control profiles.

    Profile-scoped variables

    Michael Quinlan · 0 · Posted

    It would be great if we could have local variables scoped at the profile level, so that their values would remain available to the exit task for the same instance if the profile.  Ideally this would include user-defined variables, event parameters, variables populated by Tasker with event-related values, and those populated by plugins.

    No error messages with profile disabled

    Nirnic · 0 · Posted

    Hi! Could it be possible to only get error messages when the profile which generated it is enabled? Use case: I'm using an app plugin to create a profile, I uninstalled that app and disable that profile, and get error messages because Tasker doesn't find the plugin. The only way to make those messages disappear is deleting the respective profile, but I would like to keep it to enable it if I reinstall the app needed in future, so I don't have to create it again from scratch. It would be nice.

    Thank you!

    I wish there were a built-in "alarm set" state context

    Joe Gotta · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    My newest Tasker automation relies on such a context. I currently am using a complex workaround based on variables. This is less than ideal because the variables must be set one particular way, which is not versatile, and my current setup for this project is fairly confusing. My automatons could be greatly simplified if this wish were fulfilled.

Any idea how can I make this possible for App Factory Child App?"

    Display Time Profile Became Active

    Lucas Abido Figueiro · 0 · Posted

    Hi João,

    Sometimes the log is too short for me. I have a ton of profiles and some loops, etc. 

    Would be great to have an easy way to see the last time a profile was activated and also since when the ones currently active have been active.

    I believe Tasker already record that as we have cool down for profiles.

    In the screenshot you can check my suggestion. It is to place a time indicator in the profile list itself.

    Tasker can't send MMS

    Steve · 0 · Posted

    I am the secretary for a small but very active archery group.  We use group messages constantly to send out meeting reminders, upcoming events and work parties.  Currently, Tasker can send SMS messages, but not MMS.  I can get around that restriction by sending a join SMS message from my tablet to my phone with multiple phone numbers and my phone then sends it out as an MMS message without an issue.

    It would be much more convenient to send out a group message from my phone using Tasker rather than relying on my tablet.  I always travel with my phone,

    Easy Setup for AutoInput Gestures

    Alap Kamat · 0 · Posted

    Just like the normal actions we can get guided into selecting the start and end points of a gesture, or even record it both at once. Having both the options of recording and individual point selection will be very convenient.

    "Limit passthrough to" array syntax

    Scott Raffensparger · 0 · Posted

    I have not been able to get the right syntax to passthrough arrays using "Limit passthrough to". When "Limit passthrough to" is blank the arrays passthrough works as expected.

    Have the option "Limit passthrough" in the "Variable Set" and "Array Set" actions.

    Add Notify Icon Color by Manual Selection (URI)

    Ti-As · 0 · Posted

    Add possibility to pack color (#RRGGBB, aqua, red green, orange, ...) to a manual selected icon.

    If you select an icon by "Image Select" and then switch to manual selection - the button next to the generic icon table - you get the URI of the previous selected icon but can't add any icon color.

    Additionally "Image Selection" has no option to select a file by file manager.

    Background:

    I want to switch status bar icon by var if a condition is not/met. Color of status bar icon does not matter, but within the notification would be great.

    Priority: both

    Geofence Responsiveness

    Ricardo · 3 · Last reply by Ricardo

    Hi,

    It could be appreciated to add "Notification Responsiveness" feature for Geofences in AutoLocation. Responsiveness can improve power consumption by increasing the latency of geofence alerts.

    More info:

    Add ability to control listener hints

    Matej Drobnič · 0 · Posted

    I have a feature request for Tasker (or AutoNotification, whichever is more suitable): Could you add ability to control NotifificationListenerService's listener hints? https://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/notification/NotificationListenerService#requestListenerHints(int)

     

    This feature allows users to mute notifications sounds and/or calls without being in do not disturb mode all the time. Idea is to use this when the smartwatch is connected, so the user's phone is not needlessly ringing when the smartwatch is already buzzing the user's wrist.

     

    I know the same thing can be done with do not disturb mode, but then it perpetually shows do not disturb icon in the statusbar plus do not

    Fail "Send Intent" action when target is not found

    Matej Drobnič · 0 · Posted

    At the moment, it appears the "Send Intent" action always succeeds, even when it does not find any suitable target for the intent. Could that be changed, so action fails?

    This would make debugging tasks that contain intents much easier.

    Better handling of import project clash

    Steve Waring · 0 · Posted

    If you were starting now, Tasker would be much better, with namespaces to avoid clashes of global variables, task names etc. We are not starting now, so have to manage with what we have. If a Tasker project is imported, and one of its tasks already exists in an existing project, the task is not imported. This is a good safe default. But a warning popup to tell the user that this had happened would be very useful. A task in the new project might use perform task intending to run one of the author's task and instead run some

    Digest Authentication - request to add

    Akalsharan · 0 · Posted

    Hello Joao,

    I absolutely love Tasker and the Autoapps and Join! 

    I've mentioned this request on the Autoapps forum, but posting here also as advised. I'd like to ask if digest authentication can be added to Tasker and/or the Autoapps (e.g. Autoweb) as an additional authentication option. This would be helpful for using the Philips Android TV API and the Remote Hue API (and likely lots of other things too).

    Please consider this request :-)

    Best,
