    Tasker Unable to Reply to a Whatsapp message

    Mike Tan · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi 

    I had purchased Tasker, AutoNotification and AutoTools. Also, I had downloaded AutoInput.

    I tried to set it up on android phone S20+, Android version 13.

    I need to use Tasker to auto reply to certain whatsapp message in a whatsapp group. I used the  autonotification reply, use the %anreplyaction but at most, it can only reply by means of sending a new standalone message. I need Tasker to tag and reply to the message, sort of quoting that message and reply to it. Seems it's unable to do so. Is there any method that I should use to make

    Disabling Do Not Disturb (DND) also disables Tasker mode

    FrederickZh · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm using Tasker to achieve two things right now:

    1. Enable Always On Display only when my phone's charging
    2. Enable DND when I turn off Bluetooth, and disable it when I turn on Bluetooth

    I noticed that when I turned on Bluetooth, both DND and Tasker mode that controlled AOD would be disabled together, and as a result AOD would be enabled even if my phone was not charging.

    To reproduce this issue:

    1. Create task Disable AOD: Set Device Effects -> Disable Always On Display
    2. Create task Enable DND: Do Not Disturb -> Mode Priority
    3. Create task Disable DND: Do Not

    Can't set POWER_SAVE_MODE_OPEN

    louis · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi, I'm trying to control the power saving on my xiaomi redmi on hyperos / android 15.

    after some tweaking I determined with adb that setting POWER_SAVE_MODE_OPEN works (the find setting feature can also find it).

    However, setting it with a custom setting gives an error and tells me I should contact the developer. Btw, clicking the notification doesn't work. I also tried to install Tasker Settings and Shizuku but it didn't change anything.  Also, if I add Tasker as device admin app it doesn't complain anymore with a notification but still doesn't work. Would greatly appreciate your help!

    Sophos Intercept X blocking tasker

    We are required by work IT to run Sophos Intercept X on androids. About a week ago it started blocking tasker with the notification attached. IT will not put in an exception. How can we get tasker delisted?

    Thank you...tasker is a great program and didn't realize how much we depend on it until living a week without it!

    Autoinput loses Accessibility

    Dan Muller · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    I have a Samsung S24 running Android 15, everything is up-to-date, Tasker and Autoinput are set for unrestricted background use and Tasker is set to keep Accessibility running for itself and Autoinput. Once a day or so, I get the Accessibility notification that Autoinput service is running, so all seems to be OK.

     

    But every few days, Accessibility stops for Autoinput and I have to turn it off and back on. I've also noticed that, when it does work, the Autoinput action takes much longer than it did previously. This all went south about the time that my phone

    Profile "new Window" (neues Fenster in German) does not fire on current beta (6.5.5)

    Juergen · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    This profile has stopped working on my devices (Samsung) with the current beta update 6.5.5. On other Device without automatic update (on 6.4.10-beta) this profile is still working. I tested the last official version (6.4.15) on the Samsung device by leaving beta and ... it is working again. So there might be a problem with this profile in the newest beta version (6.5.5) 

    edit: I can confirm even on non-Samsung devices there is this issue with 6.5.5-beta and not with official 6.4.16.

    Filter Received Share Event List

    Moritz Böhme · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    When setting up multiple received share events with filters and share triggers, all share triggers are displayed even if the filters don't match. I would like to propose to filter the share triggers before displaying the list.

    This would allow using many received share events together with filters without having to scroll through a giant list of share triggers.

    Right now the filters are a bit unintuitive and restricted if combined with a share trigger.

    I guess this could only be done for the tasker share and not the automatically created share options for each trigger,  because the necessary info

    Remote action execution

    Productivity · 1 · Last reply by Productivity

    Hi Joao,

    I have downloaded the latest version of Tasker and am excited about the Remote Action Execution functionality. I currently have two devices, a Samsung S24+ and a Samsung Note9. I followed the steps you indicated in your tutorial and am stuck at step 3, almost at the end. The problem is that on my Samsung Note9, when I try to select the file, either the Google Cloud Service Account or the Google Cloud Firebase, it seems that it doesn't recognize them; it simply doesn't show them as selectable files. Do you know what might be causing this situation?

    I have already confirmed it and the information from Google Play is correct. I tested it on two different devices.
