Sometimes, actions do not time out properly and a task could literally end up running indefinitely causing device to heat up. Add an option in task settings to force kill the task after x seconds.

Hey, 

I know how to use the search functionality within Tasker to search for the name of a Global Variable or array I have in mind. Supposing however, I have a value in mind and I want the search to retrieve a list of Global variables that currently match that value. I think it would be neat if that were possible. 

Many thanks 

After more than ten years of Tasker usage, I have had the need to search for keywords in labels and found that, strangely enough, they are not considered part of the user data. 

I don't know if that would be really useful to anyone; I haven't tried to use it for ages. However, I would like to suggest this feature. Thank you.

I can't see the difference at native resolution. I have to zoom to maximum zoom to see if an app is selected, and even then, it's hard to see. Native Resolution Maximum Zoom Another idea is to dim the overall tile for unset, and have selected apps at regular brightness. It just needs to be easier to see.

Please extend If ~R conditionals to support named regular expression capture groups (e.g., (?<ssid>.*)), just as the Simple Match/Regex action does. This would bring consistency across matching actions and allow cleaner logic in reusable tasks by eliminating the need for intermediate extraction steps.

Example:

…should create the variable %ssid if matched, just like Simple Match/Regex already does.

Thank you!

The command system is incredibly powerful and simple to use, it can be used as a way to simplify various projects and tasks into a single one that takes the command and does stuff based on the command itself.

It is easier than "Run Task" because the syntax is significantly easier. However, the drawback is that if you have one task that triggers a command and another that gets triggered by it, the first one has no way of knowing if the second one finished without problem, as there's no "return variable" option and no way to logically allow it.

I have two smaller proposals:

1. 

it would be useful to add to Stop task possibility of:

- stopping parent task (both anonymous and named) 

- stopping all parent caller tasks

currently it can be done by parsing %caller() variable but it is difficult and not possible to obtain task name for anonymous tasks

2. 

Possibility to set cooldown times on profiles for both active and inactive states (currently is possible for active state only)

These two things can be useful for situations where for example I need profile with state WiFi connected and need to prevent situations where I'm

I have an idea I suggest the developer add the following feature would be interesting if it were possible to trigger a task through a trigger triggered by a simple clap Either with the snapping of fingers picking up the sound generated through the palms or snapping the fingers through the microphone obviously and with that the task assigned to that respective trigger would be started.

Hii, in some devices (including mine Lenovo) Tasker can't detect logcat (it always shows no log captured) with READ_LOGS permission because device manufacturers modified the device in someway. Not any other app which relies on READ_LOGS permission can do it too but I found an App which reads logs with adb_wifi permission (adb tcpip 5555)

So I'm wondering if Tasker can add it too.

Additionally : could you bring back Android 6 support for logcat detection.

Hi I was trying the 'launch app' option and noticed it doesn't support Parallel Apps (common on phones like oneplus, oppo and family) it'd be amazing if you could add support for them :)
