    Disabling and enabling lines of code in Tasker

    Paul Thornett · 0 · Posted

    I am forever disabling various lines of code, then enabling others (I imagine I'm not alone in this!). This could be made more efficient by simply toggling the status of enabled and disabled lines in a single action. This would save quite a lot clicks over the course of a day.

    More VPN tools

    Ralph · 0 · Posted

    The current VPN tools that Tasker supports is the firewall namely "Network Access". This tool is only limited to blocking and allowing apps to connect to the internet. There are a lot of features that can be added like Custom Filter by "NoRoot Firewall", a feature that can deny or allow certain IP's of a certain app for internet access. "HTTP Injector" that has a Custom DNS feature. These apps uses VPN for their features to work and I believe that the Tasker can make it too.

    Add variable and context for battery temperature

    Stefan · 1 · Last reply by Stefan

    It would be nice to have a context and a variable for battery temperature. This could be used for warning the user on high battery temperature and also take appropriate actions (reduce brightness, activate powersave mode, etc. )

    Better Links in Error Message Popup

    Stefan · 1 · Last reply by Stefan

    After activating the option in settings to show error message popups these are not very helpful. For example a popup tells me multiple times that a plugin is missing but I can't identify which one is not available. There are just numbers with links in the popup but clicking on the links make them show up in the dialer instead of leading to the profile or task with the problem.

    Support VoLTE on mobile network state

    Caio Lima Netto · 0 · Posted

    Currently, when the cell towers switch to VoLTE, they often disconnect other call radios (3G/4G). As such, tasks monitoring if I am connected will fail since network state does not support VoLTE. 

    Is it possible to add detection for it and thus a checkbox for VoLTE on state too?

    Test Phone action for "phonetic name" fild

    in the Test Phone action, (where you check a contact email and name) it would be very helpful to have the option for getting the contact "phonetic name", I'd like to use it for my phone to read the contact name for me (wich isn't possible right now cause my contacts are not in English)

    Color activation while tasks running

    insaned · 0 · Posted

    Would be useful to have color when a task is running (like the profiles have when active) as sometimes is handy to verify if tasks is running, particularly when inadverted infinite loops are create. Ofc if it's not resource heavy, even if only when tasker gui is open or as optional in settings.

    Steganography Feature for Image

    Ian Grody · 0 · Posted

    I have been trying to muck about with this myself for fun and had some success using Java tutorials online. However, it would really awesome if Tasker has Steganography features under the Image action feature, both encode and decode. Not only could images be embedded with data, but scanned for potential hidden text.

    Hotspot related contexts

    Hotspot related contexts like notify if someone connects to my hotspot, block someone(disconnect as soon as someone connects), these are some great additions for a hotspot context in tasker.

    Data->Restore->User Local Backup should always be available as an option

    Brett · 0 · Posted

    A common use case for this request: 0) Freshly wiped device  1) Install and Launch Tasker  2) Try to restore recently downloaded local .xml backup file by navigating to Data->Restore Current implementation of the restore/backup feature is poorly designed as it is blocking this likely common use case. At least one other report of this "Feature" request was found: https://tasker.helprace.com/i356-manual-backup-only-creates-local-backup-and-restore-only-restores-from-cloud Original "Bug" Documentation: https://tasker.helprace.com/i462-tasker-bug-data-restore-user-local-backup-didn-t-appear-until-i-navigated-to-data-backup

    Nested state contexts

    4pda.ru · 0 · Posted

    Tasker supports grouping of states in profiles from the beginning. The enter task starts when all states become active, the exit task starts when one of the states become inactive.

    The notion of nested contexts proposed here changes the behaviour of the exit task only. Namely, contexts in a profile are ordered, there are broad contexts and narrow contexts, the exit task starts if a narrow context becomes inactive while all broad contexts are still active.

    For example let's consider simple profile

    profile HomeAtNight

    broad state Time from 22:00 to 6:00

        narrow state WIFI Connected HomeAP

            enter task

    Support "wind down" mode in pie

    Scharkieh · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    In general I prefer to have the wind down mode (monochrome display) enabled. While driving I would like to be able to disable this mode temporarily (similar to night light).

    Terminal Emulator In Tasker

    Bruno Davi · 0 · Posted

    Serious optimum if the task had this letter on the sleeve with this clearly the taste of liberty of many limitations when performing more complex actions, I know that has the Run Shell action, but if the task had an emulator similar to the Termless without using any plugin and still to create the APK guard everything and the one. Despite that I know that and a very difficult idea to take this here this idea.

    Audio recording in Wav format (or uncompressed format).

    lux81 · 0 · Posted

    I need to record audio in Wav format (or another uncompressed format) without using external apps which can interface with Tasker.

    I know we're talking about smartphones and not professional equipment, but for the same device, by recording Wav files with external app plugin, I get a much higher quality sound than Tasker. On the other hand, Tasker offers better control over recordings, file management, and does not require tricks with time delays to make sure the recording is saved.

    Add a way to highlight new actions in the Select Action display

    Jim Becker · 0 · Posted

    It's great to have the red badges show the new actions after an update. But they go away after you open them to look at the capabilities. 

    It would be great to have an option to highlight the new actions based on a user selected version number. It would be most helpful if the user could make that selection as an option in the display.

    Ability to launch an app in pop up view

    Tyler T · 1 · Last reply by Tyler T

    Would be great if tasker had the ability to launch apps in pop up view. Not sure if it would be possible but I do know that there is a "multi window" edge pannel for Samsung that can do this. Would be an extremely helpful feature for certain situations.

    Possibility to interact with scenes on the lockscreen

    josephlegrand · 3 · Last reply by josephlegrand

    By now, we can't interact with scenes placed on the lockscreen, because they are in overlay mode. But other applications, like Floatify for example, are able to display informations on the lockscreen, and allow the user to interact with it without unlocking the smartphone (like answer to a sms). Why is that feature not available in Tasker if it is possible in other apps?
