    AutoNotification - Please add a Check-All checkbox above the list of APPs in the Ignore APPs list

    Argyrios Derlopas · 0 · Posted

    Hi, As per my understanding, Ignore APPs list is there to help us minimize resource consumption of AutoNotification, making it possible to only check notifications coming from the APP that we are building some logic and ignore the rest. That would mean that usually we would need to check all the APPS except the ones that we will be building logic for. That's a hell of a data entry (if you have 150 APPS installed like me for instance), so I believe AutoNotification would benefit from adding one check-all checkbox above the list of APPs, to automatically check all APPs

    Font and list size of profiles and tasks.

    Von · 0 · Posted

    There is currently a profile font size preference but the vertical size if the profile list items does not get any smaller. For example when setting profile font size to 12, the profile names become just small words within a still quite large row.

    Be able to shrink the list of tasks in the same way.

    Dual SIM phones - cell ID search

    Pedro Matos Rito · 1 · Last reply by Varun Pilankar

    When searching for cells near using a dual SIM phone, tasker gets all cell IDs from both simcard connected networks.

    There should be a way to select the simcard for which to collect the cell IDs.

    For example for certain times/days to monitorize cells near (for SIM 1) and out of working hours cells near (of only SIM 2). Or to ignore a certain simcard when searching for cells (for example if the SIM we want to ignore is on roaming)

    Distribute Tasker Protocol Extensions file as gradle dependency

    c5532327 · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Gradle dependencies make it easier to receive updates and keep the repository clean.

    Can you distribute https://tasker.joaoapps.com/code/TaskerPlugin.java as dependency?

    This should be easy with https://jitpack.io/

    add an option "Motion Dedetion (on/off)" to Action "Set Tasker Pref".

    Tasker plugin to show variables in Androids screensaver feature.

    Charles Deens · 0 · Posted

    I use Androids screensaver in combination with the Chronus screensaver plugin to display the time and local weather while my phone is wirelessly charging on a cradle.

    It would be great if a Tasker plugin could be implemented that can show any stored variable on Androids screensaver. You could then have almost limitless options to show any information while Android displays its screensaver.

    If this is feasible, it would also be beneficial to customize the font type, color, size and position.

    Just a suggestion.

    Event context for orientation change

    Ravi Warrier · 0 · Posted

    We have orientation based states, but nothing to allow us to trigger actions based on change in orientation without concerning about what orientation the phone was and currently in.

    This will allow us to react faster to phone being picked up, being flipped, is held, etc.

    Add an action for an extra-long Power Button

    Rebeccah · 2 · Last reply by Bob Thomson

    Tasker has actions for pressing physical buttons and for Long-pressing the Power button , and apparently (but not on my phone with Tasker 5.7.2)) double-tapping the power button and long-pressing the volume control buttons.  What about extra-long pressing the Power button?  On my phone (Droid Turbo 2, Android 7.0), tapping the power button blackens the screen/locks the phone, long-pressing the power button brings up the Power Off screen with only one option, and if you press the power button even longer, the Power Off screen disappears and the phone reboots.  Can this be done without rooting the phone?

    Have a widget that can toggle tasker on or off and tell you if tasker is disabled

    Tyler T · 0 · Posted

    Sometimes I disable tasker for short times in order to hide scenes or do other things to keep tasker from changing certain profiles. I unintentionally then forget that tasker is disabled and wonder why nothing is updating or working only to remember that I disabled tasker. Would be great if tasker had a built in widget that would allow you to toggle tasker on and off and that told you the current status of tasker at any given moment.

    Use regular expressions to define profiles

    Bruno Davi · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    When I define a profile I can use matches (eg * + ! /) But I find that very limited.

    Example:

    Profile> State> Net> WiFi Near:

    SSID: Famil+ [...] (But I would like to use it like this) SSID: Famil(y|iar)

    So I can filter much better than using matches. And you can change this search/filter pattern in the profile itself or in preferences.

    There was an app that showed internet traffic by the notification icon and it would also be nice to make animated notifications with the images using image by image.

    add tutorial for most obvious wifi@home task

    schalou · 2 · Last reply by schalou

    There is a very good project at https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/6re2v3/the_last_wifi_automation_profile_youll_ever_need/ and I recommend adding this as an entry tutorial for beginners.

    I think turning wifi on at home is the one task which has the most benefit for most users.

    And a tutorial like this will serve as an example to get users into tasker much easier than explaining things from a programmer's perspective.

    Stumbled upon a task to create table like format in text. Doing the same in ms word or google docs will be a PITA.

    Thanks a ton in advance. Hopefully someone intelligent will be able to do the same as done in the link above.
