Input Dialogs has replaced some of my custom Scenes. However, I find it annoying that tapping accidentally outside of the dialog cancels it and defaults to a negative value. In my opinion, it would be better to make it persistent and set a timeout instead like Popup Task Buttons. Thank you.

For example, whenever I use Beep, I always want it at 25% amplitude and 100ms.   This should probably go in the overflow menu, and have a confirmation dialog with the following options: Set current values as defaults Cancel Revert to original (Tasker's) default values.

Please allow to set a variable to an empty string, even with a warning if required.

There are several cases when this is useful, for example when combining multiple variables when you want one of them to concat without any value. Or when formatting with JSON a string like:

and you want the var to be a string which could be empty. Yes, you can apply the quotes inside the var, but it is not as intuitive; or you can use Variable Convert with a null URL code, but this requires 2 actions.

Having the possibility to set the value to

Request to have also a "double tap" option (in addition to tap, long press, and stroke) in scene elements to trigger different tasks.

With Java Code actions, the possibilities in Tasker are endless. I’ve been thinking about the reusability of some of my Tasker projects that rely on this action, and it would be great if we could create custom Tasker actions (similar to Flash or Notify) using the Java Code action. It would work much like what we can already do with AutoTools WebScreens.

This would also be a great way to share complex tasks while providing an easy configuration method for non-advanced users.

It would be great to be able to specify that certain edit text elements in scenes are single lines so that on the keyboard there's a next key instead of an enter key, similar to what you have when you set a maximum characters limit. Would greatly improve UX for a lot of scenes I've built

It would be useful to perform a search and replace to a variable then place the result into another variable. Also doable, but more complicated in both implementation and use, is to allow lookahead regexes.

some times we may need to protect some new files automaticlly, and zip with code is a easy and dependable way to do that, hope the developer could consider it.

Use cases:

I create a sound toggle task that turns sound on and off. Before running the task I always check a sound variable to check if the sound is on or off before running the appropriate task. The icon should show a 🔊 when the sound variable is true and should show a mute icon when the variable is false. 

Music: play icon when music is paused, pause icon when music is playing

Etc

Add another built-in variable for the current action number, %action, which could be used in user constructed error messages.

I would like to be able to trigger certain tasks only if I'm near the location of the calendar event during the event.

I would find it helpful if the right hand data condition field on IF actions were larger, maybe on a new line, or expandable? It's fine for a variable or constant, but I've been using some ~160 character regex conditions and they're awkward to edit. Yes, I know about regex101.com and copy&paste but to change one or two characters could be easier.

Thanks for all your excellent work in any case.

Root use only, but apply a firewall for intents. This can implicitly block, allow and log all intents sent and received on Android and apps.

Thank you.

After a while of using Tasker and accumulating many Profiles - most folks end up with a mix of user-named Profiles along with Tasker-named (which are un-named) Profiles.

Those un-named Profiles don't show up in %PENABLED or %PACTIVE and cause a bunch of other issues.

There should be an option to indicate un-named Profiles when viewing the list in the Profiles Tab.

After discussing in a thread on reddit the most popular (and simple) option idea was to put Tasker-named Profiles in italics in the Profiles List.

Doing so could of course be an option in Preferences.

Anytime there's a local variable name present anywhere in an If/The/Else statement - the red/green indicator will never EVER light up correctly.

Including and even when using the step-Play icon to go through the Task step-by-step.

Therefore the red/green indicator should never show up whenever a local variable name is present in the comparison. It just creates clutter and confuses people newer to Tasker.

For those people who have used Tasker for a while - although we've become accustomed to just ignoring it, with a solution so simple, that shouldn't have to be the case.

I guess the ultimate suggestion

Yea, like that.

Like the title says, a way to see all the currently active profiles without browsing every single project 

doesn't really have to be a tab, anything that lists them

I have a task that reads a file and uses regex to to get some data, but the file is located in root directory. 

Adding option to access root files to read will help, right now i have to copy the file to sdcard and read it.

Plz add this functionality.

Simple idea. Most people may not know of this site to goce feedback for tasker or add in their ideas. Be nice if there was a button somewhere in tasker that would bring you to this site. 

It would be helpful to pass app names or packages as variable to do task on them.
