    AutoLocation should not require Storage permission

    Ondřej Novy · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    AutoLocation plugin requires Storage permission during first start. After removing that permission manually, everything works fine. Only error message toast "Permission denied" is shown during AutoLocation app startup.

    Thanks.

    IPv6 DNS cache bug

    Ondřej Novy · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    It looks like there is problem in HTP request action in combination with IPv6. It can be tested with URL https://fallback-v6.ipv6-test.com/json/proto.php which works over IPv4, but not IPv6 and contains both A and AAAA DNS records. Test task attached. There are two bugs.

    Use cases:

    Connected to network which doesn't support IPv6:

    • Tasker gets A record
    • HTTP request works - CORRECT

    Connected to network which supports IPv6:

    • Tasker gets AAAA record
    • HTTP request fails - BUG
    • there should be fallback from (not working) IPv6 to IPv4. That URL in browser loads fine (after small IPv6->IPv4 fallback timeout)

    Connected to network

    SystemUI not in list of apps to kill

    Fabian Röling · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm not sure if more system apps are affected, but at least SystemUI does not appear in the list of apps in the "kill app" action. I also can't input a package name to work around the bug.

    "Trial over" with degoogled phone, but I already bought it

    Ryan Delaney · 3 · Last reply by helprace.ald5o

    I've been using Tasker on this device for a couple years. I purchased it many years ago and installed it via Aurora Store. Now, this device is EOL and I'm trying to migrate my Tasker profiles to a new phone. However, suddenly tasker won't run because my "trial" has expired. This is aggravating because I just want to export my profiles.

    In this thread Joao said:

    Tasker's Google Play version works by quering the Google Play store if it's licensed. If Google Play is not present then that will happen. You can always switch to the direct-purchase version that you

    After resizing an Scene Element, the element's border is distorted. Original size: https://ibb.co/JmKPhbs Resized: https://ibb.co/wzYdmFx Expected: https://ibb.co/vq755df It would be better if the border didn't change its size. There is an Element Border action for that.

    android 12 wifi control not working with tasker settings 1.3 or 1.4

    schalou · 4 · Last reply by João Dias

    I used to use tasker together with tasker settings 1.3 to control Wi-Fi on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 with android 11.

    This worked until last weekend, when my phone got an update to android 12 by xiaomi.

    I then updated  to tasker settings 1.4 from github, which seems to be the latest revision but still Wi-Fi control doesn't work anymore.

    Is there something I am missing here?

    "Error - accessibility not running"

    Fenix · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I use Tasker with the AutoInput and AutoApps plugins across several devices to run tasks. Lately, I've been having actions randomly fail with the error "Accessibility service not running" despite it running quite happily for months prior. Using an AutoInput Action to click certain coordinates, doesn't not present an error, but the click does not happen. The permissions are set as they always have been and I have done nothing to change them. It is as if the service just forgets it has been set up. The only way I have found to fix this has been to clear the

    Set wallpaper not working on Google pixel 4 xl

    Eduardo · 2 · Last reply by Cressy

    The set wallpaper task used to work fine until an android update some time back.

    For a few weeks now this hasn't been working. Instead of setting the wallpaper to the selected image, it sets it to an image I don't recognize (the one in the attachment).

    I am also attaching a screenshot of the task

    new v6 Airplane Mode toggle not working, Android 7

    Malcolm · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    This would be great for me (thanks!), but unfortunately it doesn't work on my phone: Android 7, Moto E4 Plus. I have Tasker set as Assistant and the android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS is enabled (I checked this using the Tasker app). When I run Airplane Mode toggle I get "Error 1, no way to toggle airplane mode, check notifications"

    App Factory (kid apps) crash/killed on Android 12

    Tasker user 434 · 2 · Last reply by Tasker user 434

    On Android 11, works fine.  On Android 12, works fine until a day or so later, when the notification is gone and the profile won't trigger.

    Using tasker and app factory 5.12.0, target Android version 26, basic permission set like LOCATION, NETWORK, WAKE LOCK, EXTERNAL STORAGE, etc. When installed it asks for location and storage permissions, and Display over Other Apps, which I grant.  I also disabled battery optimization.

    The Profile conditions only check for Display On, GPS On, and WiFi connected. 

    I know Android 12 has issues with killing phantom processes described here, but I've tried the fix using
