There is an open-source app called Be Nice that seems to have successfully implemented split screen support for modern Android devices. Perhaps Tasker could use it for inspiration on getting its Split Screen feature working again. Here's the source on GitHub: tkuenneth/BeNice: Split-screens on Android made easy

(Note: I'm not affiliated with Be Nice. I just ran into it on Reddit.)

There are a lot of times when you want to show some text data on the screen but right now if you want make a style change to your text you are limited to use mostly 3 options: 1. Scenes which has serious problem with sharing with other people devices. 2. AutoTools Web Screen which is for more advanced users. 3. AutoTools Dialog seems to not support RTL languages.

I am suggesting to give more html tags support for more popular actions like Text/Image Dialog or List Dialog that most people use. I would prefer a more "native" style so

How about adding option in the Music Play action to choose an internal ringtone from the ringtones/notifications menu of the device? There is the Play Ringtone action but as you know it can do a lot of harm (less funny) when you get loop of audio playing. I would even suggest to remove it completely and adding all the options to the Music Play action but i know you afraid of breaking stuff for users.

Having more than one Tasker license makes it more difficult to know which license belong to which device. That is why i am suggesting to have the option in https://taskernet.com/?licenses to add a name/Name tag to each license so it would be no brainer to know which one belongs to which device. 

I saw there was a post about it already but i thought to give it a try.

I have found out that technically everyone can do it themself by saving the date of the imported project using the api taskernet link and just to compare it with the current date inside the json data.

https://taskernet.com/_ah/api/datashare/v1/shares/$user/$project?a=0 

So how about doing something like this but built in within Tasker with every imported project?

I would also recommend having the option to control the check for new update time and excludes projects from the checkup that the user doesn't want to update. 

I have two smaller proposals:

1. 

it would be useful to add to Stop task possibility of:

- stopping parent task (both anonymous and named) 

- stopping all parent caller tasks

currently it can be done by parsing %caller() variable but it is difficult and not possible to obtain task name for anonymous tasks

2. 

Possibility to set cooldown times on profiles for both active and inactive states (currently is possible for active state only)

These two things can be useful for situations where for example I need profile with state WiFi connected and need to prevent situations where I'm

The command system is incredibly powerful and simple to use, it can be used as a way to simplify various projects and tasks into a single one that takes the command and does stuff based on the command itself.

It is easier than "Run Task" because the syntax is significantly easier. However, the drawback is that if you have one task that triggers a command and another that gets triggered by it, the first one has no way of knowing if the second one finished without problem, as there's no "return variable" option and no way to logically allow it.

In scenes could you please update checkbox and toggles so that their default value can be variable driven? Currently you can only choose of they are on or off instead of setting the state with a variable.

Please extend If ~R conditionals to support named regular expression capture groups (e.g., (?<ssid>.*)), just as the Simple Match/Regex action does. This would bring consistency across matching actions and allow cleaner logic in reusable tasks by eliminating the need for intermediate extraction steps.

Example:

…should create the variable %ssid if matched, just like Simple Match/Regex already does.

Thank you!

I can't see the difference at native resolution. I have to zoom to maximum zoom to see if an app is selected, and even then, it's hard to see. Native Resolution Maximum Zoom Another idea is to dim the overall tile for unset, and have selected apps at regular brightness. It just needs to be easier to see.

After more than ten years of Tasker usage, I have had the need to search for keywords in labels and found that, strangely enough, they are not considered part of the user data. 

I don't know if that would be really useful to anyone; I haven't tried to use it for ages. However, I would like to suggest this feature. Thank you.

Hey, 

I know how to use the search functionality within Tasker to search for the name of a Global Variable or array I have in mind. Supposing however, I have a value in mind and I want the search to retrieve a list of Global variables that currently match that value. I think it would be neat if that were possible. 

Many thanks 

Sometimes, actions do not time out properly and a task could literally end up running indefinitely causing device to heat up. Add an option in task settings to force kill the task after x seconds.

I'd like to request the implementation of a single input dialog that contains the option to add additional lines with optional text above each line to produce a different variable per line or array.

This will supplement the need to send input dialogs back to back to back to query the user for an additional piece of information in order to complete 1 operation.

If I show a scene and check "Continue Task Immediately" it is cumbersome to destroy it manually if the user leaves.

Can we have an Option (e.g. Checkbox) to auto-destroy a scene on dismiss (back button press, home button press, ...) for the "Show Scene" task?

Would be great to have Join app available on the Android TV devices. TV usually always powered on and can be used as a hub to control other home devices remotely.

When using Tasker with root access there are continuous root access toast popups.

Magisk is supposed to give root request toasts only when an app is using root but for Tasker I am getting like 25 log entries and alerts in 1 minute for Tasker. This is preventing me to browse magisk logs as they are getting filled by tasker. I am only using root in one task to run a shell command so Tasker shouldn't continuously request root access.

Attaching a screenshot of the sample, if we could have a toggle to prevent background root checks or add a

Hi Joao,

Regarding the last update enhancing device interoperability, sending commands, autoshare... its a good opportunity for tasker little brother, autowear.

One of the main painpoints of wearos devices is the lack of simultaneous connectivity by bluetooth (the lowest energy consuming connectivity channel). Therefore it reduces its own capability to use the smartwatch as an standalone remote controller for everything (headphones, phones, computers, smartglasses (hot topic right now)

Some functionalities could be:

- Toggle pairing to previous device.

- Set favourite pairing devices.

Hi, The latest Android update introduced Modes. They allow us to predefine Do Not Disturb settings.

Unfortunately, they have limited capabilities at the moment, and it would be great to enhance them with Tasker by adding an action that executes upon activating such a mode.

Tasker could detect whether a mode has been activated and which one (preferably by name). Then, we could use a profile to listen for its activation and, for example, use a Tasker action to turn on vibration.

Hello,

In tasker app there is no decimal

Please include decimal number in "Task"  variables "Variable add > Value"

1. I can not add decimal number like 0.5 or 0.3 or 0.003, I suggest to inlude three to four zero after points = 0.0001, hence can use it
