Enter / Exit tasks not in sequence.
I've noticed that since the last upgrade(s), there's a problem with the sequence of the enter/exit tasks.
I wondered why some of my profiles didn't work exactly as they used to work and suspected some tasks not to be performed or performed more then once.
To check this i added counters to each enter and exit tasks on the profiles which gave a problem. These counters count one up each time a task is executed.
This confirmed my assumption that sometime the enter tasks where performed but that the exit tasks never where executed when the profile was deactivated and

Enable tasker from menu not working properly
If tasker is disabled and I wanto to enable it I touch "Enable Tasker" from app menu. This doesn't enable the app. To actually enable it, after enabling tasker from the menu, I have to click on any profile and then to confirm the action through the tick that appears on top bar. At this point Tasker enables itself and everything works right

End call action disabled erroneously
I have an Android 5.1 phone where the End Call action works properly. I have another Android 5.1 phone where Tasker shows the End Call action as disabled. However, in the past I was able to import a task that included the End Call action into the disabled phone and the End Call action would still work. Now when I attempt this, the End Call action just brings up a notification saying (paraphrasing) "End Call action is disabled on this device." It would be nice if Tasker attempted to perform the End Call action even if it is deemed disabled

Get voice action brings tasker to foreground.
When a 'get voice ' action is run and Tasker has not been closed (by backing out) and is in the background, the action will bring tasker to the foreground and show the get voice input promt. This will not happen if tasker has been closed by using the back button prior to the action running.

Help pages in German often don't exist
When I tap on the help button in Tasker I often get "page not available". Because I use German system language Tasker help links to German help pages. That's nice, but many pages seem not to be translated.
Please, if there is no German help page but an English one for an item redirect to the English page.
Thank you very much.

Custom Quick Settings tiles don't work via Tasker
I use latest Custom Quick Settings and Tasker versions on Samsung Galaxy S5 Plus (SM-G901F), LineageOS 15.1 (Android 8.1).
Custom Quick Settings tiles like reboot and reboot recovery work from quick settings, but using them in Tasker has no result.

manual backup only creates local backup and restore only restores from cloud
When migrating to a new phone the settings don't get copied over with Samsung Smart Switch. So, I tried creating a manual backup on the old phone, which creates a local file backup but the manual restore option looks for a Google drive backup.
Please sync up manual backup and restore options.

Tasker Crashes
Tasker occasionally crashes. Quite old problem and have not been fixed still. And when it does crash, it also triggers all or most of the tasks to action, apparently all at the same time. This is very old problem since Tasker 4 and have had this with Android 5, 6 and 7.
Might be some bug if too much going on at the same time? Maybe should optimize my stuff and give different priorities to tasks (as I have never done that)? Or maybe need more powerful smartphone to run my stuff without crashing?
I have observed that crash phenomenon

Media volume - Level different via profile
Hi.
When a media volume task is executed from a profile, the level is lower than if you execute the task directly.
Example: I have a profile that executes a task when a spesific bluetooth device is connected. The task is set to open Spotify, wait for 10 seconds and adjust the media volume to max (30). But the volume is always set to lower than max. I have to reach down in my pocket to get the 2 or 3 last clicks up to max. The task works as intended if I press the play button inside the task

AutoNotification can't intercept notification buttons for SMS Organizer and Single Whatsapp notification

trigger doesn´t fire no more
Hi,
tasker runs on a Huawei P10.
after some days of try and error, i got the settings so tasker fires the
trigger for %BATT ervery one% of %BATT changes.
I tried it over 24 hours in power-saving mode and it works reliable.
Some days later, without changes anything in the settings, the %BATT trigger doesn´t
fire after 2hours in power-saving mode and I find no solution to fix it.
This seems to be very unreliable and it would be fine if you have a solution.

Shake sensitivity sometimes becomes too high, rebooting fixes
I have a simple profile set to go off when the phone is shaked 'left-right'.
Sensitivity is very low. Duration is very long. Though I don't know what either of those things means (does 'very low' mean it it takes a very strong shake, or a very small shake to hit the very low threshold? Does 'very long' mean I have to shake it for a very long time, or it tracks motion for a very long time and looks to see if I slowly shook the phone?), it still functions about as I expect: I need a strong, firm,

Plus ins need to be manually edited after tasker data restore on new device
Upon installation of a new device and the tasker restoration of data, tasker plug ins need to be re-edited manually (sometimes just click the edit button and exit is enough) to be able to work as it looks like otherwise it won't generate the variables. Even if each plug in app itself is opened beforehand, it stills need to be edited in tasker.
