Wifi and Bluetooth names end in a space
For some reason, wifi and Bluetooth names on my phone (Xiaomi 9T) end with a space, making them not match, since I remove the space. It took me a while to realize what was happening, even though I was using the scanning feature. The scanner was adding the space but I was removing it, thinking the addition was accidental, and then was wondering why the network name never matched.
I guess the extra space should be fixed, or maybe ignored? This happens for all networks, and I know they definitely don't all end in a space.

"Allow Phone Access" in WebView will not stay checked
This problem is posted on Reddit by u/IVIichaelGScott a while back but he did not get around to posting it here. I am therefore posting it here since I am having the same problem.
https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/9hl84r/allow_phone_access_in_webview_will_not_stay/
https://i.imgur.com/6HEHOda.jpg Whenever I check "Allow Phone Access" and then back out of the screen, it un-checks itself. I have a stock T-Mobile Galaxy Note 9 on Android 8.1. Any ideas?
This problem only happens if URI mode is selected in the webview options.
I have a mi9 running AOSP ROM and android 9.

The zip action doesn't keep timestamps intact
So, right now, when you zip a folder with Tasker, all the files get their "last modified" date changed to when they were zipped. Could we get an option to keep the timestamps of the files intact instead?

%LIGHT returns %LIGHT (the string)
Hello !
I wanted to create a task on an HP Touchpad running Android 4.4.4 (CM by jcsullins) to deactivate the daydream screensaver if the light is very low. The setting can be modified with secure settings plugin, that's great but I've got some issue trying to get the light sensor current value. When I try to display %LIGHT (in a flash for instance), it just displays %LIGHT. I tried several other variables, the flash shows their value properly. Is there something special to do to access %LIGHT ? I tried Automate just to check : It seems that the

Number picker: old_val not set correctly
When using a number picker in a scene, the %old_val is not set correctly, if you roll the number picker and then roll again before it has stopped, the %old_val becomes unset and defaults to - 2147483648 (-2^31).

%caller reports incorrect context when the same named task is called by two profiles at the same time
I've discovered that %caller reports the wrong context when two different contexts with the same priority call the same named task at the same time.
You can reproduce this by creating a named task (I called mine Collision Test), with collision handling set to "Run Both Together" with the following action:
- Array Push: %Collision, Position: 1, Value: %caller()
Then call the task "Collision Test" in both the entry and exit tasks of two different contexts that have the same priority:
- Collision Test 1: State -> Variable Value: %Collision_Test ~ true
- Collision Test 2: State -> Variable Value: %Collision_Test !~ true

AutoWeb: Gmail API get message body data decoding needed
Body data is somehow encoded and payload body data won't come through.
Needing some way for Autoweb to decode body data.
I found this, https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-ruby-client/issues/145 . Could I decode somehow with AutoTools?
I don't know, if payload body data is needed, then it doesn't seem to go throuhg. Only body parts data comes through. I get something like this from here as below: https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/users/messages/get?
"body": { "size": 0 }, "parts": [ { "partId": "0", "mimeType": "text/plain", "filename": "", "headers": [ { "name": "Content-Type", "value": "text/plain; charset=UTF-8" }, { "name": "Content-Transfer-Encoding", "value": "7bit" } ], "body": { "size": 925,

Support for Android TV running Oreo (e.g. Sony TVs)
Similar to this previous post: https://tasker.helprace.com/i214-tasker-on-android-tv
I don't mind sideloading etc, but the main issue is being able to access the full layout of Tasker. Currently the search button and 3-vertical-dots menu at top right corner do not show up on my TV (Sony running android 8). I tested latest released 5.7.2 and 5.8.0 beta 5.
Is Tasker somehow compatible with some Android 8 TVs and not others?

Gestures and shake actions broken
Across multiple phones and Tasker versions, I have never found shake and gestures usable - either the false positive or false negative rate is much too high or it simply triggers the action when I'm positive it couldn't possibly have been performed.
One consistent bug I have noticed is that shake actions trigger when I pick the phone up off my desk after it's been motionless for a while. Sometimes when performing a gesture, the action starts triggering over and over again as if an infinite loop, as if some flag that should tell Tasker that the action was

An important note about the problem of exported apps doesn’t work without Tasker
The important note: Some exported apps works successfully without Tasker if the screen of the phone is on (surely if it can work when screen is on in Tasker before exporting).
Explanation1: Recently I have created a project. The aim of it is to open the flashlight without need to unlock the phone. Just by gestures. The project works successfully in Tasker. But after I'd exported it as an app and disabling Tasker. The app doesn't work.
Explanation2: My flashlight project is designed to run when screen is off. But to check my note I've edited my project to run

Tasker in hung state...
Hello,
I am reporting a situation where takser looks to be in a hung state.
First my setup and environment:
- Kindle fire HD 8 7th Gen Tablet, with google play installed.
- Latest tasker version.
Though this issue is not profile related(because the profile works on the same device 99% of the times and other devices too, and been using it since 2 years) but relates to takser/tasker service in general. I have an app profile , which i use to control how much my kid spends time on her lovely apps(games and youtube).
Since about some time ago,

AutoInput accessibility caused droping frames during each swipe
If I open AutoInput accessibility, the system would become unresponsive, more specifically, it drop frames when I swipe. (I'm nor sure if I used the proper words)
I did some research, found something on an article https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/55585722
The article mentioned that the existence of AccessibilityInputFilter blocked the InputDIspatcher thread being awake. So the input event was put into next Vsync, which means the InputDispatcher won't follow the pace of InputReader, but the pace of Vsync.
There is a super snappy app called FooView, and some people says the Advanced function in accessibility would cause dropping frames. So normally people only open the Basic function in

XMLHttpRequest() and fetch() in Javascript(let) returns nothing sometimes
I would first like to acknowledge that I might be getting something absolutely wrong here.
The code below will have the following results in chrome (accounted for CORS):
- results[0-8].fetch = "..." // contains something
- results[0-8].xhttp = "..."
but will have the following results in Tasker:
- results[0-4].fetch = "" // undefined
- results[0-4].xhttp = ""
- results[5-8].fetch = "..."
- results[5-8].xhttp = "..."
Few things to note:
- An observation will be that something is only returned if the URL doesn't end with "html" or a sever directory.
- The results here are the same with a POST request too.
- I currently have no workaround other
