    Element of array does not work in text property of V2 scene elements.

    Steve Waring · 0 · Posted

    A value such as %myarray(%myindex) does not work when used as the text property of a Scene v2 element. This happens with text elements and Segmented button row elements, and probably others as well.

    Second show scene v2 after wait for scene fails.

    Steve Waring · 0 · Posted

    If you show a v2 scene, wait for it with wait for scene result, and then show the original scene again, it either shows very briefly and then self dismisses, or it does not show at all.

    A work around is to put a screen-id in the second show scene. Because of this simple work around, I think this is low priority.

    Scene v2 vertical columns within horizontal row.

    Steve Waring · 1 · Last reply by Steve Waring

    If you have a horizontal row containing two vertical columns, only the first shows in the graphical part of the layout editor, and only the first shows when the scene is displayed. Please see attached screen shot.

    Using Dismiss Scene v2 causes Wait For Scene v2 to fail (and thus can't validate scene data)

    Steve Waring · 3 · Last reply by Steve Waring

    This applies to Tasker 35.apk and 35-1.apk. I've requested beta access but an update has not arrived yet.

    I love v2 Scenes - many many thanks.

    So a task (Show) displays a V2 scene with various elements. There is a button with a Dismiss Scene event. After the Show Scene v2 statement, there is a Wait For Scene v2. All works fine, the values of the scene's elements can be access after the dismiss button is pressed, via variables.

    I want to validate the scene's input before dismissing it, so change the Dismiss Scene event to a Run Task event.

    Profile doesn't work after restart

    Nikola Rakewo · 3 · Last reply by Nikola Rakewo

    I have a profile that doesn't work after a restart. The only way to get it working again is to disable the profile and then re-enable it. Since I'm using Tasker on my car's Android stereo, I essentially have to do this every time I start my car up again.

    What the profile does is that when I have music playing, a flash notification pops up that identifies the title, artist, and album art of the track.

    I have given Tasker all possible permissions and it doesn't help. There is no battery optimizations on my device for Tasker.

    Quick Settings Tile icon appears lower resolution

    dusan236 · 0 · Posted

    I’ve noticed an inconsistency in icon rendering quality when using a Task as a Quick Settings (QS) tile.

    When I set a custom icon for the entire Task and then assign that Task as a QS tile, the icon appears sharp and high resolution in the Quick Settings panel.

    However, when I set the icon using the “Set Up Quick Setting Tile” action inside the Task, the same icon appears noticeably lower resolution (blurred/less sharp).

    I am using 96x96 PNGs in both cases.

    Tasker doesnt randomly select image

    freedomplayer95 · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I set up tasker so every 4 minuted it chooses a random folder from a specific director and then randomly chooses an image from that folder and sends it to klwp to set it up as wallpaper. But i noticed that some images get selected waaaaay to often. This should be random but from a folder that contains 1000 images i got 1 image twice already in the last hours. Yesterday i even got an image twice in 8 minutes from a folder that has almost 1500 images in it.

    I start to think that tasker doesnt look at all

    Issue with Javascriptlet when processing JSON Data

    Productivity · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    At te moment, the javascriptlet is failing when it is used to process or filter data from a JSON. While it works correctly for other use cases, it does not behave as expected when handling JSON data, resulting in no output. This indicates that the issue is related specifically to how the javascriptlet processes JSON, rather than to the data itself

    Autoinput Actions not saving (Android)

    Alex · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi All, 

    Have a Samsung Fold 4, Android. 

    I'm trying to modify the existing 'text' element of an auto input (v1) click action in tasker but after I manually change the text and click back, the text field doesn't change.

    Easy input also does not work. On the Autoinput screen, I get this error message on the bottom 'Please touch tasker on this list'. 

    But there is no list. 

    When create a new autoinput action, the fields remain blank. 

    Tried Autoinput v2, but nothing saves there too.

    I've tried disabling and re-enabling accessibility and clearing data and cache.

    Autoinput actions not working on gemini settings/overview screen

    Nico · 0 · Posted

    Hi there,

    I have a task using autoinput to go into the settings of gemini and switch between hotword detection being on and off. For some reason this stopped working. It still opens the overview screen, but it does not execute any clicks or swipes to go to settings. Same problem with V1 and 2 of autoinput. And the same actions work in several other apps I have tried. And when I manually click on settings, the clicks on the next screen work again. Any ideas?

    Cheers. Nico

    App blocked with Google tasks

    Sara · 0 · Posted

    Hi,

    I'm trying to get stuff set up with Google tasks, but I'm getting an error when I try to add the web service in autoweb, "This app is blocked. This app tried to access sensitive info in your Google Account. To keep your account safe, Google blocked this access"

    I've seen some people having the same problem with other Google stuff, but haven't found a fix for Tasks. Is there anything I can do?

    Fix scan media issues

    Alex Feldman · 1 · Last reply by bkevin Tillman

    There are two issues with the "Scan Media" task

    1. Scanning a Directory doesn't discover new media files in the directory
    2. Scanning a file takes too long (about 1 second per file).  This is a problem when looping over many files.

    Suggested fix options:

    1. Option to scan files asynchronously.  We don't need any output from the scan action to proceed
    2. Speed up synchronous file scan
    3. Fixing the directory scan to pick up new files inside as new media (e.g. by Google Photos)

    Airplane mode while screen is locked

    jack benimble · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Motorola Stylus G 2022 - Android 13

    I have pretty much followed the FAQ and Dontkillmyapp suggestions. Tasker works fine while the screen is on. But as soon as it locks I have a problem. I set up a simple task of turning off Airplane Mode, waiting 10 seconds, then turning Airplane Mode back on and exiting. It does this every 2 minutes. With the screen off (and locked) it will turn off Airplane Mode but doesn't turn it back on. So when I turn on my screen I see my cell connection is on. So with the screen off,

    Hello,

    On grapheneos (degoogled phone), installed the direct apk and purshased / activated license from paetreon, whenever i try to 'download' a task (dev task) i get a notification that the service wont run without google play services, when i try to import a task from a browser i get notification 'unknown google error', and when i have google play services temporarily enabled (sandboxed) i get asked to login to a gmail account, which is not something i want to do and defeats the purpose of getting a standalone version.

    Here to say that Sophos InterceptX has restarted its blocking of all AppFactory installed apps and AppFactory itself. Nothing new per se, just returning to behaviour we thought was solved.

    HomeAssistant

    Tim · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I've been using Tasker and the Hotword plugin mainly to launch HomeAssistant's assist.AssistActivity to use voice control. It has been working great for months. Since the last 2 weeks it simply stopped working. I installed an older version of the HA companion app because I thought a recent update caused the issue, but that wasn't it. I used other apps to see if it's a general issue, but it only seems to happen when using Home Assistant. When using the Android Home button, the Assistant launches just fine.

    The log is below. Any ideas where the issue lies and how
