I use Tasker for almost everything, Tasker in fact is my OS, I keep my settings in Tasker rather than in the OS menus as they will be with me with any device or any Rom I will use.

The most time consuming for me is to interact with the device and Tasker (Typing complex shell commands and navigate between the tasks and screens.

I understand this is big, but I would want some way to connect my laptop to Tasker and use Tasker as WebApp (with mouse and hotkeys)

I would like to trigger tasks when (optionally specific) devices are connected/disconnected from my tethered network

Hello! Could you give the ability to run 2 event created with "IntentTask" plugin in split screen mode?

Tasker backup and recovery features, please support webdav.

Would it be possible to make the project bar along the bottom of the main Tasker interface larger (specifically, taller)? I'm finding that with full gesture navigation with the betas for Android Q, swiping sideways along the bottom of the screen switches between recent apps, and scrolling the project bar is really difficult (there are maybe a few pixels at the top of it that I can grab, but it's really tricky). Maybe there's another way to do it that I'm not aware of.

Please add this feature.

Thanks

An option for cooldown time to trigger the last skipped event (skipped during the cooldown time) after the cooldown time is over would be useful.

E.g. there are many changes of %LIGHT when moving. In a profile reacting on changes to %LIGHT and adding a cooldown time of ten seconds Tasker will probably not trigger the entering of a completely dark area where %LIGHT will not change anymore because it's constantly 0. The above change would allow to use a cooldown time AND to detect the % LIGHT changing to 0.

Can you please add global variables for:

- Installed Tasker version

- Device Firmware version

-Date of security patch 

This information would be very helpful for self created logfiles in Tasker projects.

Hey,

I'd like to include the Tasker protocol extension in an app under Eclipse Public License 2.0.

Since the https://tasker.joaoapps.com/code/TaskerPlugin.java file has no license information included, I doubt it would be legal to modify and re-distribute it.

Can you add a license (maybe put this file under some free software license) to this file?

Thanks!

This would be especially useful for devices running Tasker which are mainly just automation devices hidden away -- the device automatically backs up its Tasker data which you can edit on your phone by importing the XML, but then you push the XML back to the automation device and it automatically restores it in the same way it would if going into Data -> Restore -> User Local Backup (without the need for AutoInput or anything).

Something like having the context be "File Restore.xml modified," "Read file," "Import Data."

I offer full integration of the OpenStreetMap API in Tasker, since the capabilities of Google Maps are limited. I propose to extract all possible information from the API into variables, such as street names, house numbers, POI names, etc. What do you think of this?

Hi, I've been trying to see if this is possible but just can't see it. Say I wanted to get information from App Info and use the %app_icon() in a custom navbar, currently I can only choose Task icons from icons in a list.

If I wanted this to be dynamic and based on say, the last app I used, it would help to allow that to be a variable.

Hi,

I would like to trigger some tasks using Face ID if possible.

It may be a wonderful idea to manage smart home applications according to the faces of the people living home. For example, it says their names after checking their face IDs. Or it waits to say the personal notes from another user until it sees the target person 's face.

Thank you very much in advance,

Could it be made so Media playback and other sounds Tasker can make can be made so we can control which speaker the sound comes from (Left/Right) please?

Thank you!

in particular the slider handle and the actual line the handle slides along

Currently, if we want to filter an array we need to use %var(#?pattern), then loop over the indices returned and construct a new array. Another suggestion already exists to get rid of that loop by allowing %var(1,5,7) to return an array with just those indices and I agree that'd be a nice improvement. There it is then suggested that we could then use %var(%var(#?pattern)) to filter an array. However, I think for that special case we can do even better.

We currently already have %var(#>)/%var(>) and %var(#<)/%var(<), where the version with # returns the index and the other the value,

When editing code you might sometimes find that what was originally a condition on a single action actually needs to apply to multiple actions, or that an If block that used to be bigger now only contains one action.

As you commented on this suggestion (sorry, I can't find a way to link the comment directly), the solution to the first part is often to use an If block instead. However the conversion can currently be cumbersome to do by hand, especially for complicated conditions. And Tasker is all about automating stuff, right? :)

I think it'd be nice if

I hope to add a way to modularize the task list.For instance.Now there is actually this modular way.But there's a problem.Is when one of the tasks invokes the other.There is no easy way to edit the task being called.I hope to add a function, that is, in the task that calls other tasks, click on the called task, you can directly enter the editing process of the called task.That would be very convenient.In addition, the task module called in the task list is displayed in another color, so that it can be well distinguished, it is not a normal task

Update the behavior of the Tasker Action: Display AutoRotate (Off, On, Toggle) to reflect the Screen rotation changes introduced in Android 9 (API level 28):

“When the device is in rotation lock mode, users can lock their screen to any rotation supported by the top, visible Activity. An Activity should not assume it will always be rendered in portrait. If the top Activity can be rendered in multiple rotations in auto-rotate mode, the same options should be available in rotation locked mode, …”

Currently, setting Display AutoRotate to Off, always locks the screen to portrait instead of the current orientation.

Tasker's default Quick Settings Tile is very useful for disabling/enabling Tasker, but can its label be changed from "Toggle" to "Tasker" to better describe its function?
