No permission to check license
Hi,
I had Tasker installed on a new Samsung S21 running Android 11 - this was installed as part of migration from old to new phone. On the new phone I've never run Tasker, or set it up at all.
I've kept getting toast type messages randomly appear on my phone saying there was no permission to check for a license. I had no idea which app was causing this, but after pulling the logs I can now see it was Tasker. ADB logcat snippet below:
I've since run Tasker and accepted terms and conditions etc so hopefully it will

Power button double-tap action isn't triggering on S10
I'm trying to remap the power double-tap action on my Samsung Galaxy S10 using Tasker.
I've seen the video on doing this with the Bixby key but am not having luck reproducing it with the power key.
- I've turned off the "Quick launch" toggle in the stock S10 camera - Got the popup asking if I wanted to set tasker as the power double-tap action (and restarted the phone as requested) - I've tried the adding the custom setting to make sure this persists at startup as per here
All to no avail.

Split Screen on Tesla Style Head Unit
I have used Tasker to load 2 apps split screen on a horizontal android head unit, but my current tesla style vertical head unit (Linkswell Gen 4) seems to ignore the split screen command in Tasker. The 2 apps are thus loaded sequentially full screen.

Structure output does not recognize my csv
I have a messy csv file that i make multiple splits to be able to extract the datapart i need. When i finaly have the data i want i make a new variable (%csvA) with "variable set" and have the "structure output" checked.
When i then try to list all data from index 2 with %csvA[2]() i get nothing. If i list index 1 i get all the data from the variable.
To be able to only get the index 2 data i can use %csvA[2]() but only if i first go to the "Vars" tab, click the variable %csvA and

KEYBOARD action causes screen keyboard to disappear then reappear.
Thanks for such an amazing tool!
I just used a 9 button scene and KEYBOARD action to create a DPAD and give myself the &^%$#@!!! arrow keys (and, eventually, the Delete key) missing from most keyboards.
Good news: It works!
Bad news:
The keyboard disappears, then reappears after a beat.
It's kind of jarring to use, as-is.
Setting the "don't restore keyboard" flag is an ok workaround, but if it's possible to choose not to hide the keyboard that would be useful.

Bluetooth Connected profiles don't fire when a Name variable is used
Tasker is not firing a Bluetooth Connected event (Profile) if I put a string in the Name variable in the event.
This is a Profile that I've used for years, and it recently stopped working - after Tasker and my Phone both updated, so I'm not sure which one may have caused the bug.
The profile triggers an action to set a sound/volume profile in another app, whenever my truck's bluetooth connects to my phone. But for testing, I created an even simpler profile and gave it one action: to produce a popup message "BT Connected".
I tested this profile

Deactivation - Call Redirection Problem
I installed and used TASKER first yesterday. Therefore i created a profile (if telephone rings) that a task call redirection (german: Rufumleitung) will start.
That worked perfectly. But then after testing i wanted to manually disable therefore i moved the toggle to grey on profile (if telephone rings) but recognized that android holds the message that all calls will be redirected.
I testet it and it is true, also with deactivation the option still stays and all calls are redirected. I never made other setting on android therefore therefore i must come from tasker...
Now is this a bug or

Wrong call with function screen call and send sms
Hi,
I have 2 function in my tasker. First is "Screening call" beacuase i have android 10+ (end call function no works). Another function is send sms after call is "busy". But SMS sends on a wrong number in list numbers maybe 3-4 times after call. When i call another number send sms to correct number 3-4times this is repeated.
I always need to send an sms to the last number that was rejected.
Don't know what it can be?

Tasker blocked by Instacart Shopper App!
I've been working on a utility for the Instacart Shopper App (the one that the individuals who do the shopping for the customers use). To be clear, this is not a "bot" designed to grab batches. It is meant to download the user's info such as earnings.
This week Instacart made a change to the app that is deliberately preventing Tasker from functioning! It's seems to impact the Autoinput Action to "click" on items in the menu (all Actions and Field Types aren't working). Tasker can still click on other screen areas, but nothing associated with the menu (see attachments).

API POST to Home Assistant returns "Invalid JSON specified"
Hi,
I am trying to save a state to Home Assistant using the API. The POST request is working fine in postman, but not i Tasker.
When i add the header "Authorization: Bearer <token>" (replacing "<token>" with the correct token. 183 characters consisting of letters and a period. So no special characters if that is relevant). The response is "Invalid JSON specified".
If i change "Authorization" to something else it says "Unauthorized" instead.

Notification Blocking backup cannot be restored
I just found that a backup created of the list of blocked notifications in AutoNotification cannot be restored. The backup works fine and creates a BlockFilterForDB database (SQLite), which contains all the definitions and looks correct. But restoring only lets me choose the backup file and when accepted nothing more happens. I'm running Android 11 One UI 3.0 with Tasker 5.11.14 and AN v4.2.0 beta.
Thanks for looking in to this.
