Changing depth of video element restarts all videos
Using the Element Depth action on a video element causes all videos in the scene go black and restart. This is annoying because videos take several seconds to restart.
Happens no matter what combination of element or scene settings there is.

%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
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

AutoLocation Backup/Restore
Sent to support email, but trying here as well... I know from this closed post:
https://tasker.helprace.com/i1649-autolocation-can-t-backup-and-restore
That there is an update to AutoLocation to allow backup/restore on newer devices. However, that update isn't available yet on the Play Store (I am in the Autolocation beta). I cannot sideload apps on my device due to Work profile policy.
Can a fixed version be made available on the Play Store?

Autoweb and Auto calendar error. help with profile.
Dear Joao, many months ago I started using tasker. So far I have created everything I could mostly using autoinput since it was easier and a few tasker functions specifically for the profile part (time, event and state). The main reason I have started using tasker however is that i wanted to automate stuff I do on a daily basis. Along the way I have added the goal to integrate my devices via tasker and join and I'm still busy with that and so far it is going well. However there is one profile that i can't create since

Can't enter tasker if it is left on a locked project
I have several projects at the bottom. A few of them are locked. If I am in one of the locked projects, and then leave or close the app, then when I next open the app, I am naturally prompted for the lock code. However, if I don't have the lock code, then it forces me to leave the app. I can't find any way to switch to another project. I think it should allow for the option to switch to another project that isn't locked, given that "lock on startup" is not enabled.

Call Forward not working after android 14 upgrade
Call forwarding always worked for me until the Android 14 upgrade. I have a Samsung S22+.
Now, Tasker launches the phone app, but it doesn't actually dial the number. It just sits there and I have to press dial. To forward, I'm dialing the Verizon *72 sequence. I verified that I have the auto dial box checked.
Oddly, call Forward End *73 still works.

%anextras variable in autonotification does not populate any longer
It appears that %anextras variable isn't populating after a text message is received and notification is intercepted by Autonotification. I noticed this after running ADB permissions app a couple of months ago but I'm not sure ADB program had anything to do with this issue. Help is needed to get it working again.

HTML link to download Direct Purchase version
After buying the direct purchase version (for degoogled phone without Play Store), the link to download the app redirects to a Google Drive.
Would it be possible to host the APK file on a normal HTML page ?
Because a lot of people without Play Store use some sort on updating app like Obtainium to check and dowload for an update, but this is not compatible with Google Drive wich require a user action with Javascript.
Thanks !

Accessitibility settings indicate Tasker is "malfunctioning"
Sometimes when I exit Tasker, I get a popup about missing Accessibility Access permissions.
When I go to the Accessibility settings (clicking OK twice on the popup, or Android Settings => Accessibility), it says "Not Working. Tap for info." below Tasker.
When I tap that, "Use Tasker" is enabled but it says "This service is malfunctioning." at the bottom.
Disabling and re-enabling "Use Tasker" seems to fix it for a while, but this has happened multiple times now and it would be nice not to have to keep doing that :).

error:failed when trying to export as apk, array task broken now.
I updated Tasker and App Factory to the latest beta version (6.3.0-beta) and one of my array tasks no longer worked, it came up empty. So I uninstalled Tasker and App Factory and installed an earlier version where the task worked before (6.2.6-beta). I then imported my latest backup. But I am unable to export to an apk now, I keep getting errors. Please see attached files. At first they were about doodles, so I removed all my doodles from the project scenes. Still getting errors. I've no idea what to do and I am so frustrated when updating tasker

Unable to open tasker if it is left on a locked project
I thought I posted this a little while ago but I'm not sure if it was actually posted/visible so I'm trying again.
I do NOT have "lock on startup" enabled.
I have several projects. A few of them are locked with the lock code, whole others (including home) are not.
If I am in one of the locked projects, and then leave or close the app, then when I next open the app, it starts up in that project, not home - which is fine. But because it is a locked project, I am naturally prompted for the lock code.

Continuous prompt when turning wifi on/off in HyperOS(Xiaomi)
Hello, since i updated to Xiaomi HyperOS 1.0.1.0 (from Miui) a few days ago I am having issues with a prompt that appears every time tasker tries to toggle wifi. It keeps prompting me to allow/restrict the app to turn wifi on/off. I tried to install tasker settings 1.7.1 for Xiaomi (as described in instructions) several times (including using adb method) but it does not work. I cannot see what I am doing wrong. Before the update I did exactly the same and it worked (that was on Miui). Is there any tips, workarounds or updates? Thank you!

Can't run Network Access with Tasker Settings error message
Hello,
Whenever I disable Tasker either using the quick tile "toggle" or in the Tasker app itself, I get an error message from Android Permission Manager that says, "Can't run Network Access with Tasker Settings. Otherwise, it works as intended and it does disable Tasker. Is there a work around for this? For now, I'm just dismissing the notification.

'Variable Convert' write access to 'Name' when 'Store Result In' is used
The Variable Convert action will check if it can write to the variable used in Name even if Store Result In is used. If Store Result In is used, there should never be written to the original variable and therefore there is no need to check if it has write access to this variable.
Currently this will give the "Can't write values to variable structure" error if it can't write to the original variable, even if it will actually never attempt to.
Minimal working example:
Maybe this isn't limited to the Variable Convert action, but it is where I encountered
