    Hello, closing an issue is frustrating and very unhelpful when the problem was not solved because I can no longer reply to it.

    The problem is when an SMS has LINE BREAKS, e.g. more than 1 line, only the 1st line is fed into %evtprm3. url encode CANNOT solve the problem. please fix to copy all lines into %evtprm3

    Android 10: after starting tasker, unable to get past notification screen

    Raphael Valo · 1 · Last reply by Raphael Valo

    Dear Dev Team,

    I bought Tasker, but I am unable to start it. When tasker is being started, then a full screen message opens with "Data Access and Collection in Tasker" and there is no button / option to continue to the app itself. Disabled notifications for Tasker, but no change. Using Android 10 tablet. How to proceed to the app itself?

    PS: is the app even compatible with tag type ISO 14443-3A / NTAG21? The current built-in nfc reader of that particular tablet only read the UID. The idea of having bougth tasker in the first place, is to

    Direct purchase version - how to avoid beta versions?

    JS · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I have the direct purchase version, and the Aurora Store app has 6.3.13 while I have 6.3.12 installed, so Aurora Store lists Tasker in the updates list (which of course it can't do). In the case of Tasker I use Aurora Store to let me know when to direct download a new version of Tasker. I just went to the direct download page, trying to download what I hope is 6.3.13, but instead I got 6.4.0-beta. How can I avoid betas on the direct download link?

    Tasker Settings popup everytime it tries to activate Wi-Fi on Android 14 (ASUS)

    John Cobra · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Heya! I've had Tasker Settings to fix the Wi-Fi Toggle issues for the longest time. Just a few days ago I upgraded to Android 14 on my ASUS Zenfone 9 and Wi-Fi toggling is semi-broken now. It still triggers normally, but everytime it tries to turn Wi-Fi on, I get a confirmation prompt I have to hit "Allow" on. DIsabling Wi-Fi works without this prompt, funnily enough.

    I have uninstalled and ADB installed both versions of Tasker Settings, but the issue persists.

    Bluetooth Disconnect action fails. Bluetooth Connect works fine

    Hunter Pritchett · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm on Android 14 and Tasker 6.3.13.

    >Bluetooth Connection *Action* **Disconnect** *Device* [Device's MAC]

    >Bluetooth Connection *Action* **Disconnect** *Device* [Device's Name]

    This fails. The exact same code but with **Connect** instead of **Disconnect** works fine. And yes, I'm sure the device is connected when I try to run the code.

    Someone had a similar problem [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/1eadas5/my_task_that_turns_off_bluetooth_no_longer_works/) and I can confirm that it does work if you turn off calls before trying the disconnect action. However, as they remarked, that's not really viable for headphones.

    Shake action not working when screen is locked

    Since version 6.3.12 it's not possible to run a task by shake action if the screen is locked. You always have to unlock the screen to make these action work.

    Till the last update it has never been an issue.

    AutoLocation geofence does not work without Google Play services

    schklom · 1 · Last reply by João Dias
    • Problems
    1. AutoLocation Geofences cannot be defined, no map shows up, and the error message is `AutoLocation won't run without Google Play services, which are not supported by your device.`
    2. No location can be searched either. Note that the `Location` profile (in Tasker directly) works despite the map not working, by manually typing GPS coordinates.

    • Technical info

    My phone runs GrapheneOS without MicroG or Google Play Services, and I have installed the Direct Purchase version of Tasker and AutoLocation.

    • Idea of solution

    Support interacting with a map from OpenStreetMap instead of only supporting Google.

    AutoInput accessibility service bug causes manual screen rotate button to glitch

    Matthias · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hello João!

    I have an issue that causes the manual screen rotate button to glitch. This is the button that allows you to rotate the screen orientation when auto-rotate is off and the device is tilted. Normally it appears in the bottom right corner and shows a smooth animation. However with the AutoInput accessibility service enabled, the button flickers erratically and the animation restarts tens of times per second. This bug is purely cosmetic and does not affect the functionality of the button.

    I noticed the issue over a year ago on my old phone but only found out AI

    %app_apk_public_source_dirs() returned by the App Info action contains variable names and duplicates when Package/App Name is provided through a variable

    I have issues · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    App Info output variable %app_apk_public_source_dirs() returns the paths to split APK files belonging to an app. When App Info receives the package name through a variable, for example when in the enter task of a profile triggered by event New Package or Package Updated which passes the package name in %evtprm2, the output contains duplicates and variable names %app_apk_public_source_dirs[numbers up to 10].

    For example, we install Simple Flashlight from the Play Store (so it consists of multiple APKs) and set Package/App Name in App Info to com.simplemobiletools.flashlight. %app_apk_public_source_dirs() returns:

    /data/app/~~B7hw9LsIMvoKBAxtESVvqw==/com.simplemobiletools.flashlight-zfPGc_nUh-lfXyne8IYBXw==/split_config.en.apk,/data/app/~~B7hw9LsIMvoKBAxtESVvqw==/com.simplemobiletools.flashlight-zfPGc_nUh-lfXyne8IYBXw==/split_config.xxhdpi.apk

    Notification event not triggering.

    Glen · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I am attempting to create a profile that notifies me when a package has been delivered.

    The setup should be straightforward:

    If a notification from the shop app contains the phrase "your package is here" in its title, execute the "play sound" task.

    However, this profile is not functioning as expected. I'm using the app automateit to send custom notifications on command to test if the profile is working properly, but the profile fails to recognize the notification.
