Can anybody help I want to use the trigger of when private space is unlocked and locked to run automations

Hello everyone, I’m fairly new to Tasker and would like some help.

I’d like to know if it’s possible to automatically reply to a message whenever the group owner sends one.

If so, how can I set it up?

Also, is it possible to add a delay of 1–2 seconds before the auto-reply?

Thanks!

Hello. I don't know if this is the right place to post, but I need a tool that can make an automated phone call that i can schedule when I want it to happen, or set a timer, that plays a voice message, preferably text-to-speech, or a pre-recorded message whatever it works. Note that i'm not a programmer. I'm just a layman who needs a tool. I've found some other apps that do the job, but they don't have the ability of voice message. So i figure you can help me.

Hey everyone,

I found a promising project on GitHub that allows running a local LLM on Android. It uses models like gemma2.gguf or similar, essentially letting you have a small personal "ChatGPT" on your device.

I had an idea to integrate this with Tasker by creating a plugin. This could enable tasks like:

• Copying an article's content from a browser and automatically generating a summary.
• Understanding any written message within a task and using Tasker to act accordingly on the phone.

Everything would remain local, running directly on the device. The project is available here:
🔗 GitHub - Android-Document-QA

Unfortunately, I lack the skills to create this plugin myself, but I believe that if someone capable of developing it steps in, they could find great synergy with the APK creator of the LLM project.

Would anyone be interested in working on this?

I want to make it so that when I send a message in a specific WhatsApp group, the message will automatically be sent as an SMS to specific contacts. Can anyone help me with this?

Got buzzkill for 1 phone. Works well blocks dumb notificationa os does. But can it block toast notification. Those are far worse cause you cant dismiss them. Best way to block toast notifications?

Hi all.

I didn't found the event in tasker to fire a task when we click the "I'm awake" button into the wake-up check notification from Sleep As Android.

Maybe with AutoNotification, but I can only fire something when the notification is canceled, whatever the button clicked.

Can you guys can hep me ? Thanks a lot.

Sometimes if i have a long script it will just keep going and going. IS there a way I can stop it immediately ?

Is it possible to export an app and make it hidden. So that when installed on another phone, the application won't appear in the launcher's list of applications?

I'm making them in the app but when I leave it goes away

It does the action once then stops. The only thing I can think of is copy and paste the code multiple times.

I'm working on a Tasker setup where a Parent task calls a Child task via the Perform Task action, passing parameters using %par1 (a comma-separated list) and %par2 (a custom separator if needed). The Child task processes these parameters and uses them in an action, such as Variable Query, which has optional fields.

However, I’ve run into a problem: I want to pass a value (stored in %par1(2)) into the Default field of Variable Query (or any optional field), but only if it has a value. If %par1(2) is blank, I want Variable Query to behave as if the Default field was never filled in at all.

The issue is that Tasker doesn’t seem to have a way to make an optional field truly behave as if unset when passing a variable into it. Using a space gets close, but is noticeably different in some cases, and a cleared or unset variable resolves to its name (as expected).

The only solution I can think of is using if-else logic to call the Variable Query either with or without the Default parameter, but that scales poorly when multiple optional parameters are involved. Is there a cleaner way to handle this? Maybe a trick to make Tasker treat an empty variable as truly omitted in an action parameter?

Here's the code for the task I've got:

    Settings: Run Both Together
    
    <par1 Inputs (comma separated):
    Title, Type, Default, Background, Timeout
    
    All are optional. Type defaults to 1 (Normal Text), Timeout defaults to 40, and the rest default to blank.
    
    Valid inputs for Type: numbers 1-8, as well as the exact text of the items in the "type" field of the variable query action (names included for better readability of calling actions).
    
    par2: if set, par1 is interpreted as separated by the contents of par2 instead of a comma.
    
    Output: the user input, or "🥫📱" if the user clicks the X button.>

Crossposting to share a neat project I just threw together. Uses Python on a Raspberry Pi to get a variable that gets sent to my phone. Tasker does the magic of converting the data.

I also have a similar scale project on a water cooler where the scale is under the water jug.

The fish can appear randomly on the screen in a rectangular area and when the fish pop up its a shadow, when you click the shadow a minigame pops up at the bottom with a blue circle that slides at random speed across a small slider. Is this possible to automate?

I made something to get random wallpaper from API and set it, it worked on testing but when I make an app with App Factory it's an error when setting wallpaper.

My objective is a two way bluetooth communication between a device (smart band , smartwatch, etc. ) and Tasker on my non rooted phone using GrapheneOS (i can adb grant some rights if necessary).

So I need to be able

• to send notifications from tasker to the device.
• to receive events on the phone from the device, like pushed buttons, app or widget selected on the device, etc.
• to be able to detect when both the phone and the device are near, far, disconnected, etc.

I did some research and this is what I found:

• there is some logcat thing that can detect an event on a bluetooth device and then the bluetooth signature can be recognized by tasker. Is this correct ? Is it that easy ?
• hybrid smartwatches like Casio or Fossil seem to work but only from the watch to the phone.
• smart bands seem to be a good option. Specially Xiaomi smartbands have apps that can allow 2-way communication. And maybe amazon bands too.
• wearos watches can work and then I can make a simple menu on the watch that sends different events. 

Am I correct ? What am I missing ?

The two options I consider are 

1. A watch IF I can indeed make a menu on it and choose and run differrnt events and have a feedback. 
2. A cheap smartband but they dont have physical buttons so I dont see how I can run things from the watch. 

Any advice is welcome !

Thanks

Edit: I also have AsteroidOS watches. But I sadly haven't found anything on that front.

So I just got Tasker and have zero experience or clue how it works or how I should get it working, help pls, this K2HD_EFFECT 1 setting currently I can't get working on SetEdit app and reverts to "0" value alltime. Help pls!

Could someone help me with the JSON Read feature please?

I tried for a few hours last night but am not too familiar with JSON and am stuck

I've used a URL tracer, where I put in a shortened URL from Amazon, and it returns something like this:

{ "timestamp": 123456, "apiVersion": "1.0", "apiStatus": "success", "apiCode": 200, "meta": {...}, "data": [ { "url": "https://amzn.eu/d/a1b2c3", "status": 301, "headers": [ { "name": "server", "value": "Server" }, { "name": "location", "value": "https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/ABC12345?..." } ] } ] }

There are a lot more name / value entries, but hopefully this is a decent simple example

I can get everything under headers, each name and value, but I'm trying to get the value = ? where name = location

What do I need to do please? Again I'm not too familiar with it and have read all the guides and examples I can find, but just can't do it

Thank you

I only need the app to open if it's the first 5 days of the month. Basically it's a finance app and i want to check if interest got credited.

I am using intents in Tasker to trigger macros in macrodroid but I can't figure out how to pass Tasker variables/data to macrodroid variables using the intent

I haven't bothered trying to make new tasks for awhile as the essentials that I've been using for years work fine maybe with just a modification for new phones or android versions... On to the point. I remember being able to create a custom Tasker notifications that I could use to perform simple little tasks like killing persistent media apps or display information or whatever and it used to be quite customizable but now this feature seems to be nerfed. Is this android restrictions or am I missing something?

To check for more details about my project i recommend to go here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/1i9nqqm/updating_my_notesreminder_widget_v2_project/

What's new

• Checked and Unchecked are now split. If you check a note it will go down the list below the unchecked notes. Thanks for u/Rich_D_sr for the help to get this one working.
• Renamed project and global variable so it won't be a casual name that will make a problem with your already existing names. Again thanks for u/Rich_D_sr for the tip.
• Longer timeout for input dialog.

Remember to backup your notes list before importing!

I work at a job where I have to take lots of photos to help me remember information, and I'm tired of manually deleting them everyday.

I want to create a profile when I unlock my phone and when both wifi and mobile data are off, I want to show connectivity panel.

I am able to set unlock option and show connectivity panel. The condition that when both wifi and mobile data are off is messing me up. I tried going to if in task function and set %WIFI0 AND %MOBILE0

But it is showing connectivity panel every time I unlock the phone.

P. S I am just a beginner in tasker

1. Tasker Function

Function No Net
If %WIFI ~ off & %MOBILE ~ off
2. Settings Panel
Type Connectivity

Alguém poderia me informar se é possível montar um redirecionamento de aplicativo com o tasker, por exemplo, do whatsapp para o anki, sendo que aquele só será liberado após uma quantidade de minutos específica?

Hey guys, so I am new to tasker. Basically I am learning tasker by creating simple tasks and importing preexisting tasks.

So what I want is when I open an app (I hope profile trigger is Application-launch app) I need the device to show my media volume panel.

Any help would be appreciated

How to do to do this? Thanks on advance

Currently we have two type of variable. Global and local. But one thing I think could be useful are a form of "class" variables, that are only accessible within the task that created them, but persistent between runs of the task

A lot of my global vars hold the last successful run time of a task, to be used earlier in the task as a throttle/debounce for some particular conditional part of the task, and it would be nice to have a way to organize them

Answer: The .match(regex) method was working, but its output is an array object and I mistakenly assumed js would convert it to a string (doh!). If I really wanted a string, adding the .ToString() method to .match() (text.match(regex).ToString()) would do that, but creating an array in Tasker before calling the scriptlet and assigning .match(regex)'s output to it was what I ultimately did. Many thanks to u/Cascading_Neurons for setting me straight.

According to W3schools.com, string.match(/ai/gi) is supposed to return an array of every match in "string", but I've tried lots of variations of the following statement and nothing's worked update: (with and without the g and i qualifiers). Do I need to specify a different js library or something? All help appreciated.

matchvar = string.match(/regular expression/)
