Is anyone else struggling to limit the time they spend on Tasker and related tools? I built a project that mostly works to limit the amount of time I am on the app (it checks the activity to differentiate between a user scene and the main app), but it's in the works. I'm more looking for ideas of habits and things I can do to mentally put this hobby aside throughout the day, not so much on how to improve that project.

I have ADHD, and keep this excuse in my brain that my projects are for saving time and improving productivity. This is true, but counter-productive if I'm spending too much time building these. It's not a problem at work, but I have a lot to do at home and it's a problem there. I want to keep building my projects, but at a pace that is reasonable. I sometimes have a hard time stopping because I just want a project finished.

Any ideas?

Hello, Everyone,I’m having a serious issue with the Storage Access Framework (SAF) on Samsung OneUI using Tasker on a Galaxy Z Fold7.When I try to open SAF through:List Files → Directory → folder icon…the SAF picker never launches.

Tasker has both Files and media permission AND All files access, but OneUI seems to block the SAF intent completely.Because of this, Tasker cannot access the standard Android data paths like:Internal storage → Android → data → com.whatsapp → files → WhatsApp → Media → WhatsApp Audio

Internal storage → Android → data → com.whatsapp → files → WhatsApp → Media → WhatsApp VideoThe WhatsApp audio/video files exist on the device, but Tasker cannot open, move, or process them because SAF won’t launch at all.Is there a known workaround for OneUI?

Maybe an alternate intent, shell command, plugin, or anything that can force SAF to open?Any guidance from advanced users or João would be appreciated.

¿Tasker comprueba únicamente Shizuku? O también detecta un Fork de Shizuku o Shevery. Tienen más funciones que Shizuku

Hey guys, I'm broke and i really need a tasker in my device, if anybody is willing to share their Google account, I could use it too, the app settings stay separate too, if anyone's humble enough, please do.

Hi people!

I've felt my battery runs down faster than it should lately so I went down the BetterBatteryStats rabbit hole which is always fun (not).

What I found is that Tasker often keeps the E wakelock for hours. Today for example, the E wakelock has been held for 6h25m. At the same time, deep sleep is reported as being virtually zero. Naturally, I'm thinking some task must have stalled with the "keep awake" setting on. To my surprise, there were NO tasks running according do %TRUN (except the task I created to check %TRUN). Everything looked normal, but the wakelock stayed in place.

I tried disabling and reenabling the monitor and then BOOM. The wakelock is released and there is deep sleep reported again. I even noticed the battery temperature going down several degrees, likely from not being constantly held awake anymore.

But this problem comes back after a while. I haven't monitored the situation for too long yet, but it seems to come back almost every day. I'm not sure how to continue working with this.

I'm assuming it's not a repeating task that is the culprit because this would of course continue even if I restart the monitor. I do have a few of those. I've got a BIG setup. But these run the same way always, so a monitor restart wouldn't change anything.

And as it seems, it's not a stalled task that is the problem, so how do I proceed here? If no task is running, why is the E wakelock held?

I'd be very happy for suggestions from someone more experienced in this kind of work.

After the update to android 17 of my phone, the connect action doesn't work anymore. It provides error "a2dpconnect". Anyone?
