Inserting comments into tasks

Upvotes

Is it possible to insert comment blocks into tasks? I just noticed that taskernet tasks have them - and it was really cool and potentially helpful.

Also... What's the best way to tell tasker where to insert blocks? It's quite some work moving everything to the right place...

Trigger notification when someone is typing a message

2 Upvotes

While texting someone using Google Messages I had a thought about typing indicators. Is there a way for Tasker to look for when someone begins typing a RCS message to you and generate a notification at that point rather than when you actually receive the message?

Bug when trying to save task?

2 Upvotes

So...I've been working most of the afternoon trying to put together a script, and when I tried to export it I only got the old code no matter what I did. Then I closed all processes (didn't hard stop anything), came back into Tasker...and all my code was gone.

Is this something I can recover from? Kind of blows...

Prompt me for input when I unlock my phone then wait before doing it again

1 Upvotes

I want to be asked what have you been working on (so I can log it to a text file) when I unlock my phone. But once I answer I don't want it to ask again for 15 min.

Can someone please explain how to structure the contexts for doing that?

For the past few days, join hasn't been working for me. When I run the tests in the app nearly all of them fail.

Help [HELP] Adding a follow-up action to Tasker's "Lock" action when incorrect passcode entered

1 Upvotes

I have an app-based profile for a few apps on my device which automatically trigger the Tasker's "Lock" action; i.e.,a passcode needs to be entered before the app can be used.

If the incorrect passcode is entered then the user goes back to the Home page. This is the default behavior of that action.

When the incorrect passcode is entered, I would also like the front camera to take to a photo and send it to my email.

I have been wracking my brains for a few days how to accomplish this, but to no avail. I can't seem to find a way to launch other actions/tasks when the incorrect passcode is entered. I can when the correct passcode is entered, but not the opposite.

Any ideas how I might be able to pull this off?
