    Application profile app. selection as variable or scene

    Mika Sivula · 0 · Posted

    It'd be great to have an application profile that you could modify in scene or/and variable also. This way you could do for example a game/childrens/visitor etc. profiles and you could edit apps selected as a trigger.

    I was doing a blocker app for my kids phone so that it would block the screen every time he would start certain apps in his phone. I was doing it with Tasker App factory but couldnt do it because there is no way to select the apps which trigger the tasks. Same goes on many apps made with app factory that require

    Can Tasker be added with these 4 basic actions for TCP?

    Zohar · 0 · Posted

    Hi

    Currently Tasker does not have basic TCP actions, for Connecting, Sending, Receiving, and Disconnecting.

    The closest thing it has, are the HTTP GET and POST (and HEAD..) actions, which might be problematic for sending files, since I don't know If I can use them to send a 15MB file for example, in one HTTP GET/POST..

    Can Tasker be added with these 4 basic actions for TCP?

    TCP_Connect(HostnameOrIP,Port) TCP_Disconnect()

    TCP_Send(Data) TCP_Receive()

    Thank you very much

    More Granular Context Date Options

    Rowan Begg · 0 · Posted

    Would it be possible to have more date options to be used in Contexts?

    For example every 4th Friday in a month, or the first or last Sunday each month?

    Allow bigger/more log files

    Agraetz83 · 4 · Last reply by Agraetz83

    Atm tasker saves up to two log files of ~2mb before overwriting them. This means depending on how much you're doing with tasker, they might not reach far back. In my case there's only 2h worth of data (extensive looping) and this makes debugging quite a challenge. 

    I'd like if we could increase the log size if necessary.

    "Light" theme with windowLightStatusBar enabled

    Rodrigo Souza · 1 · Last reply by Scott Almond

    Default Light theme would be much better off with a white status bar using dark icons.   Also would be cool toolbar items ('Tasker' tittle, 'Search' icon and 'Overflow menu' icon) in accent color, following the trend of Google's new design. Something like the Settings app on AOSP Oreo.

    Root for internal File Manager

    Robin · 1 · Last reply by SmartPhoneLover

    Hi, 

    The internal Tasker file Manager has no Access (on Oreo and maybe other Android Versions) to /system or /sys. I think this is because it is not using root to Access it.

    So it would be nice to get a Feature like that to watch System files (Tasker functions are "File opened/closed")

    Thanks

    Export plugins actions in kid-apps

    Maher Tayara · 0 · Posted

    I think you should make new optional protocol for plugins to allow giving something like modules to tasker when exporting kid-apps (not always)

    And don't make it essential for every single action... so it will be easy for developers to implement

    Plugins developers may offer it as purchase from store

    I know it's a hard or maybe something semi-impossible but this will make plugins really useful in kidapps as they are not at all now..

    Global variable for audio channer "BT Voice" is missing

    Willy · 0 · Posted

    I see that Tasker provides actions for the following audio channels / variables ...

    Alarm ...% VOLA Average ...% VOLM Notification ...% VOLN Ringer ...% VOLR System ...% VOLS In-Call ...% VOLC DTMF ...% VOLD BT Voice ... Could it be VOLB?

    I suppose it will not be very complicated to implement.

    Network Access allows variable/array

    For the Network Access action, instead of picking apps from a list, would be nice if one can use a variable/array to specify the app(s). This way, we can allow or deny different apps based on conditions.

    Allow fork and join of tasks

    Noel Yap · 0 · Posted

    It's sometimes useful to be able to perform multiple tasks simultaneously (eg one task may be updating some state in the background).

    For example, a Scene may be taking input for some duration and updating an expiry widget based on the duration input and the current time. But the time itself can be changing, too; it would be nice if the expiry widget can be updated when the current time changes.

    A share community easy to use like Workflow

    Z ZHANG · 2 · Last reply by Z ZHANG

    A use-to-use share community is helpful to guide the newcomers and maintain the vitality of the APP.

    However, it is inconvenient when you want to share your useful profile to others. Here are some common ways I saw on the internet:

    1. Record a video to tell others how to set a profile. I think this would hold back most people who just want to share their thoughts.

    2. Write down all the setting steps like this one: https://forums.androidcentral.com/android-apps/301540-tasker-lets-contribute-profiles.html

    3. Export profile and import profile. 

    I think Workflow on iOS has done a good job. as attached file. Click the button

    Add a toggle to animate the opening of Activities via Send Intent

    Tuur Lievens · 0 · Posted

    My basic android developer skills (followed a course in college) tell me you can add a animation when starting an activity (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2651360/how-to-provide-animation-when-calling-another-activity-in-android).

    Currently the activity pops into existence, which is fine for when you want to automate something in said activity. But one of the ways I use tasker is for (re-)adding shortcuts that OEMs sometimes remove (like the Google In-App search). I'd like to get as close to the indented experience and an animation would be nice.

    It could be unlimited the time of action "get voice"

    Horrorbjgames · 0 · Posted

    Well, I wanted to do a voice text with the tasker but, it has a limit of up to 40 seconds. It could do something like having a button to proceed with the voice obtained and another to cancel, but also if it is not because something is uncertain by google then have a perception of the voice that continues when listening to the sound and when to get anything or the gift is too low to make it proceed.

    Better design when doing animations in scenes

    Horrorbjgames · 0 · Posted

    Could have some way to make more beautiful animations in the scenes of the tasker because the effect of decreasing the size of the element is a bit strange when it is defined along with the action that moves the elements of the scene.

    PHP parser similar to javascriptlet

    adomm420 · 0 · Posted

    This would be a great addition for someone who's very familiar with the PHP programming language and would save a lot of time, as well as would shrink down the tasker tasks for loops/cycles and many other thinks like date function, strtotime function and so on.

    Better Built-In Image Selector

    Brett Mello · 0 · Posted

    Every time I try to choose an Icon for my Tasks, I can choose "Local Media". However, this always takes me to Android's default gallery, which we all know how good that is. Is there any way to change this. 

     

    For example:

    From within AutoTools configs, I have the option to choose ES File Browser among the many other options. This also allows me to import images from the Cloud or LAN.  When choosing an icon for a specific task, "Local Media" does not offer the same options in the gallery. I'm not sure this affects all Android default
