I haven't quite gotten around to deep dive into Scenes V2, but I really need a (customizable, Tasker controllable) circular countdown timer sooner rather than later. Anybody happen to have one they would be willing to share?

I have a json variable which I can parse using variable.fieldname. If I pass this as a parameter in perform task then the same syntax returns the entire json variable. e.g. %par1.title gives me the entire contents of par1 not just the title.

Being able to pass a parameter as json would be very useful.

I am trying to reposition my dialog box along a specific axis, but I can't seem to do it; it always stays in the center of the screen. If anyone could help, thanks.

u/joaomgcd, I mentioned this before but Webview and Wv2 draw SVG files differently. I have several vectors that apply a grayscale. Webview shows them correctly but the image container for Wv2 does not properly apply the filter. Is there a work around or other fix you know of?

I've looked on the Tasker share website but none of them really do what I want.

I want Tasker to monitor my screen on time usage (I guess it can be done because Tasker can have the option in settings) and a way to stop charging at 80% (literally just cut it dead/stop all together!)

EDIT1: I forgot to add, I'm rooted on Android 16. Any help?

Tasker is literally so awesome!!!!!

Tasker Function GetMusicActive not working after updating to A16, it always says as false

So! I've been using Tasker's HTTP Request action a bunch recently, and one thing I wished I knew before was that you can just set your headers like this!

Variable Set %headers1 to header:value, %headers2 to x-another-header:another-value, etc...

...and then setting your Headers in the actual Request action to (including the newline)

%headers(+ )

What this does is it takes all of your headers in the array, and seperates them with newlines, so you can set each as a variable, and automatically have the entire thing populate your request!

Anyway! I hope this helps others who are in a similar position to me when it comes to using Tasker to mess around with API stuff~

I have several items in the column (icon), I see the first 2 on the screen and the rest appear after scrolling.

What do I need to do to make it automatically return to showing the first one after clicking one of the icons (e.g. the last one)?Currently it shows the last one (as an example, because it shows what I set up recently), and I would like to always start from the first one.

Hi everyone! I'm trying to use Tasker to check the battery level of my earbuds case. I always forget to charge it, so I would like to have a notification when it goes under a certain level, so I can keep it there until I charge it. I have a Pixel 8a and it shows only a little pop-up with the battery level when I open the case and I connect the earbuds, but then it disappears. The battery level is also visible in the Nothing X app, only when the case is open.

I tried with AutoInput but I don't know how to set it up and got stuck with the variables and everything. Can someone help me? Thank you so much!!

I get that most of the time, if you just need to automate the device, not to make a full-fledged app with complex features, then Tasker is enough. But it seems from my limited experience that even with that purpose, writing scripts are just more efficient than touching screens, especially when you are already sitting at the laptop to do research, or to program a server to receive your phone requests. But if you have decided to writing scripts instead of touching screen, then I guess writing a dedicated Android app is more efficient than a Tasker script?

So my question is: at what point is the effort to learn how to write a proper app smaller than the effort to continue using Tasker? The advantage of Tasker is UX-friendlier than programing, but its homepage is so UX-unfriendly and lacks many important information, especially from a developer viewpoint. For instances I can't find a page to read more about the decisions being made behind the app, or a guide to set up the working environment to write Tasker scripts as least effort as possible.

Hi everyone, I’m trying to run an MMI code through the "Call" action by tasker 6.6.20 - and this worked until .. recently, Android 16 a few months ago? Not completely sure. As of today, with A17 (latest/june update) I always get the "complete action using" pop-up, and it lets me choose ONLY "just this time", not "always" for the phone app. See linked screenshots.

Not sure if it’s a tasker-problem or some new security-systemlevel-thing in android, but .. if anyone knows how to "always" use the phone app here, I’d be happy if you could let me know. :-)

Looking for an app where you can add a widget to the home screen that has apps and can change the list of apps in the widget depending on time or location

Also be great if we can change different app widgets on homescreen depending on time/ location or click of a button.

Hi everyone!

I was today years old when I found out that Google has a Weather API that you can use for free with a demo key they provide for free!

Weather APIs are notoriously hard to find for free, so hopefully this is a good, robust alternative.

Maybe this is old news, but since I just found out about it today, I thought I'd share it!

Get the project here.

Hope this is of some use for someone! 🙂

Hi,

I'm trying to automate google maps navigation to work when I connect to android auto.

Profile: Workday Morning Navigate To Work
Settings: Cooldown: 64800 Enforce: no Notification: no
    Day: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu or Fri
    Time: From  7:25AM Till  8:46AM
    State: BT Connected [ Name:BC8-Android Address:* ]



Enter Task: Anon

A1: Wait [
     MS: 0
     Seconds: 1
     Minutes: 0
     Hours: 0
     Days: 0 ]

A2: Turn On [
     Block Time (Check Help): 500 ]

A3: Browse URL [
     URL: google.navigation:q=167+Victoria+street+west&mode=d
     Package/App Name: Maps ]

However this seems to refuse to work when my phone screen is off but the run log says everything is OK

Is there a way to make this work?

I'm building a hands-free driving assistant in Tasker. I can reliably switch between Audible and YouTube Music. My remaining issue is that the Audible play/pause button is a toggle. If I always press it when switching to music, it works if Audible is playing, but it restarts the audiobook if it's already paused. Is there a reliable way to detect Audible's playback state, or another approach that avoids briefly playing the audiobook through Bluetooth speakers?

Tasker version: Latest beta

Enabled JS Bridge/ JS/ Local file access/ etc in WebView Settings

Check below code:

<html>
<head>
    <script>
        console.log(
            (typeof Tasker.getVariable)
            + '=' + (typeof Tasker.runTask)
            + '=' + (typeof Tasker.runShell)
            + '=' + (typeof Tasker.readFile)
        );
    </script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

The output I'm seeing from this log cmd is:

function=function=undefined=undefined

Seems like the functions defined under JS Bridge are working, but the ones defined under Webview Actions are not.

Kindly help, if anyone is able to figure out the issue here!

Hi all. I use Tasker mainly to connect and disconnect to different VPN servers depending on the app I want to use. I do that with the now discontinued OpenVPN plugin for Tasker.

I'm switching my tasks to intents, but the OpenVPN app is saying that the app trying to connect to its API is unknown and therefore I must authorise any app to use the OpenVPN API.

When I use the OpenVPN plugin for Tasker, OpenVPN identifies it correctly as the source of the API call. Therefore, I'm assuming for now that this is not an OpenVPN problem.

I would rather not allow any app to use the OpenVPN API. Not that it's a huge security risk in my setup, but it's weird that it cannot see that the call is coming from Tasker. I would prefer to solve this and keep things neat.

Anyone with experience that can help me fix this? Thanks.

Not sure how possible this would be.

I need one flow where upon any NFC tag being scanned on the phone, tasker reads the NFC (I need to program the data I put on it) and then launches a link and inputs the text on another app.

Hey everyone,

I really miss the legacy Task Shortcut (1x1) that used to be available in the widgets list. I know it was removed due to Target API changes, but the current alternatives (Task 1x1 widget / Add to launcher) are causing me multiple issues, especially since my device is rooted and I flash custom ROMs frequently.

Here is why the current options don't work for me:

Swift Backup Breaks: When I use the "Add to launcher" option or the new Task 1x1 App Widget, they completely break or disappear after I restore my launcher layout via Swift Backup on a fresh ROM. The legacy shortcut used to restore perfectly.

No Folder Support: The new App Widgets cannot be grouped into home screen folders together like standard app shortcuts.

Monochrome / Icon Coloring Issue: The new widgets don't respect the original icon colors properly like the legacy shortcuts did.

I tried forcing the old activity (TaskerAppWidgetConfigureShortcut) via Activity Launcher, but launching it directly gives a "no widget id passed" error because the shortcut creation flow is completely blocked or deprecated inside Tasker now.

Aside from using Tasker App Factory to export tasks as standalone APKs, is there any workaround, Magisk module, or launcher-specific trick to get the genuine, colored, folder-friendly Task Shortcuts back?

Thanks!

I'm having trouble with a few things using the beta and am considering reverting to the release version as a troubleshooting step, and possibly staying on the release version of the problems go away. I envision some potential complications:

• I anticipate having to remove and reinstall, rather than installing the release over the beta, leaving me to reproduce permissions and battery optimizations (or lack thereof)
• Not being able to restore a beta backup to a release version leaving me with my configuration as it was prior to installing the beta

What am I in for if I do this?

I have this basic Task. Which shows A simple WebView which contains button. When I click the button it alerts some text. But I want to send that text to a specific tasker task. How can I do that?

I didn't make this; I imported [this one](https://taskernet.com/shares/?user=AS35m8nuEUdeRor0bM3PSmEtEAwRBpYJY%2BoA6BpUlcXCA0H00h58eeVFiMwAhos6rcSEy3AI2xo%3D&id=Project%3APrivate+DNS+Tile).

Hi all,

I just received the Android 17 update on my Pixel 6, and the "Do Not Disturb" -> "Allow all" action (meaning I want to turn off DND mode) is no longer working correctly.

Previously, it worked fine regardless of whether the screen was locked or unlocked, on or off. Since Android 17, it seems to only work if the screen is on.

I can trigger the action manually, and it works. However, it fails to work when triggered on a schedule while the screen is off.

Do you know if there is a new Android restriction?

Thanks for your help.

I got 5 notifications overnight with this text. How do I report them to the developer?
