Have option for CRLF line end with write file
This would avoid the need for a Javascriptlet
var cret = "\r"
and adding %cret at the end of write file data when append newline is ticked, or
var crlf = "\r\n"
and %crlf at the end of write file data.

When adding new groups, insert the new group to the right of the group that was long clicked
When adding new groups to help organize profiles, tasks, and scenes, the new profile is added all the way to the right. When dealing with many groups, the new group would have to be moved if there order of the groups were to be organized. Moving a group requires long-clicking then choosing to move it left it right. This is a pretty tedious process.
Better would be to add the new group to the right of the group that was long-clicked. Allowing drag and drop off groups would also help.

Option for an exit confirmation popup
I have exited tasker so many times with the back button on the wing screen. An option to add 'Are you sure? before exit would be great.

Provide Capability To Encrypt Files Created With Tasker
Its great that Tasker can create files and backups, but due to potentially sensitive data that could be in the file or the backup it would be useful if Tasker could offer the option to encrypt that data so its protected while stored at rest.
The option to encrypt always increases processing overhead so that should be a consideration when opting to enable the feature.
The option to decrypt the file could be done within Tasker itself, but that would make that created file unable to be decrypted by anything other than Tasker. Ideally an open source utility or industry

Allow detection of Tasker as a foreground app as an "expert" option
Currently Tasker windows do not affect %WIN, and Tasker can not be chosen as an app context. This is a deliberate restriction to prevent endless loops and other issues.
I propose providing an option to remove this restriction, akin to "expert" mode in preferences.

Ability to select a range of lines quickly.
I would like to suggest adding a feature that would greatly facilitate the selection of several lines: when selecting a line and selecting another line, then make the selection of any interval between them. When you have a task with many lines, it is difficult to make the selection one by one. Thankful

follow launcher font size and style on "Task" widgets
Current, only "Task Shortcut" widgets follow the launcher font size and style, but not "Task" widgets.
Could you please implement it?

Allow users to create a new Taskernet account instead of using Google login
Some people (including myself) would probably prefer creating a separate Taskernet account instead of tying it to their Google account (or any other service, for that matter). It would be great to see such option in the future.

S-Pen Bluetooth Settings Access
I use Tasker to disable Wi-fi and Bluetooth in certain areas, but as of now I have to have it notify me when I am entering these areas to turn off the Bluetooth S-Pen setting on my Note 9 manually. It would be much more convenient to be able to have it access this setting directly.
-
Battery and charging information
It would be great if the following information could be available in a Task (via variable or "Test Battery" aktion):
-Battery temperature -Current charge/discharge current in mA -currently used charging method ( quick charge / slow charge ) -estimated time until the charging process is completed
-
Allow more than 3 contexts per profile
Please allow 4, 5, or unlimited contexts in a profile to avoid the need for hacky workarounds.
-
Allow more trigger conditions for profiles.
Currently, the number of conditions is limited to for. Four. I would like to be able to specify more conditions.
(I know there's a workaround by convincin several conditions into one but sometimes there's just no good name that can be used for the wrapping condition and it just pollutes the namespace).

Add contact card URI to types that can be returned in a Test Phone action
I have the following task that is executed to open the contact card for a specified contact. A1: Test Phone [ Type:Contact Thumb URI Data:%acnumber Store Result In:%cid ] A2: Variable Search Replace [ Variable:%cid Search:/photo Ignore Case:Off Multi-Line:Off One Match Only:Off Store Matches In: Replace Matches:On Replace With: ] A3: Send Intent [ Action:android.intent.action.VIEW Cat:None Mime Type: Data:%cid Extra: Extra: Extra: Package: Class: Target:Activity ] However, this only works if the contact has a photo associated with it. If no "Contact Thumb URI" exists for a given contact (i.e. there is no photo associated with the contact), then the "Test

Misc JavaScript improvements
- Currently "perform task" from JavaScript is asynchronous only and task results are unavailable. It would be good to the option of having a synchronous version which returns results as an additional option. Sure, it's not included now for a reason. But it would be good to have the option even if it would just fail when you e.g. run a task with another JavaScript action in it.
- Currently plugins are not usable. I can see this being basically impossible to address from within JS directly, so perhaps the first point is the best solution here.
- Update JS library to include

add action "Tasker restart"
add action "Tasker restart"

Administrator Level
Just like the Island app by Oasis Feng, Tasker should also have the same feature that can handle both (Mainland and Island) personal and work profile and to be able to have an app state for work apps and to be able to freeze app in both profiles.
And to also add some features that is only accessible with the administrator user.

1. Forward notification to media players like Kodi, Plex, LG WebOS TV
2. Forward notification to smart displays
3. Record/Save notifications in a database for future references,

Add a SIM filter to Received Text event
Currently, the "Received Text" event only allows you to filter by sender and content. It would be great if I could choose a SIM filter there as well which will allow me to forward all SMS' from SIM 2 only or it can be paired with the other two filters for even finer control.

Export scene by url
While profiles, tasks and projects can be exported by url, it can't be done with scenes. Adding this functionality will be helpful.
