Stopping Tasker? - Tasker Tips & Tricks

Is it possible to stop Tasker all togheter without uninstalling it?
The Force Stop option on my phone is greyed out so i can't use that.
AutoMagic does offer a stop service option, does Tasker has this option too?

Just hold down on the Tasker logo in the app
There is a Tasker stop action, Tasker > disable

[Q] Scheduled Profiles

There are several apps out that does this kind of thing:
Timerriffic
Locale
Tasker
Setting Profiles
Profile Valet
I'm after something Free that I can do the following:
Turn on/off AutoSync
Turn on/off notification/ring volume
Turn on/off orientation
Turn on/off airplane mode
on a scheduled time or location based.
Does anyone have any recommendations or experience?
I hear lots of people like Tasker but it seems a bit complex!
Tasker does that and a LOT more, but there is an app that'll probably do what you want. Haven't tried it myself yet, since I own and love Tasker. Look for Modus on the market, also has a thread on this forum.
Thanks
I've just tried modus and it doesn't have a autosync plugin

Question About Making a Profile Shortcut

Hello.
I made a profile which basically whenever you set it on, you select some applications and when you try to open them they'll automatically close and make a short beep sound.
However, it's hard to go to Tasker and manually disable and enable the profile.
I was wondering if I could, let's say, hit the "back" button three times and the profile would either enable or disable, I would know this as a flash text would pop up on the screen saying either "Profile activated" or "Profile deactivated", any idea how to do this?
I don't think you can make tasker react to button presses that way, but in some UIs you can. Just make the tripple-press activate an action that toggles the profile. You could also make a shortcut to that task on your desktop. Another way would be to make a notification action button (preferences - monitor), to make the profile toggleable from the notifications.
If you're rooted and have the Xposed Framework installed, you can install Xposed Additions and remap whatever keys you want, some to even launch Tasker tasks.

Use Tasker to only get arlo camera notifications at certain times

Is this possible to do through Tasker? If so, how do you code it?
I want my cameras to record but I don't want to get notifications except for after sunset and just after sunrise everyday. So like 6pm to 8am.
Otherwise I want it to record but not notify me.
I posted this on reddit/r/tasker but no one has responded yet.
The time profile is easy. The trigger context is the window of time you want to block notifications.
The task would do the heavy lifting of actually blocking the unwanted notification. You probably could handle that using Notifications Off (Root), assuming of course that you're rooted. Else, AutoNotification can do that for you. Both are tasker integrated.

Unfortunately neither of those are working. I have a pixel that is rooted and an s8+ that is not. So I tried both and I'm still getting notifications. Any ideas?

I didn't specifically state, but should have, that when using the AutoNotification method, an additional profile trigger needs to be an AutoNotification intercept event.
You could post a export (description) of the profile you've built.

Stuff (4)
A1: AutoNotification Block [ Configuration:Apps: com.netgear.android
Toggle: Enable Timeout (Seconds):60 ]
I pressed on export and that's what it gave me.
I also took screenshots. Here you go: https://imgur.com/gallery/bAhRY
Lmk if there is anything else you need.
Your profile is currently triggered by the arlo app. So anytime that app opens, your "stuff" task runs. Not what you were shooting for ?
On the left side of that screen, on top of the part that shows an icon and "arlo", do a long press. That will allow you to add a context.
Choose: state -> plugin -> AutoNotification -> Intercept.
Then leave "Event Behaviour" checked.
Tap on "Action type" and select created.
Tapp on "Apps" and check the box next to the Arlo app.
At the top of the screen tap the check mark to accept the configuration. Then on the next screen, the left arrow at the top left to lock in the context.
You will now have two contexts for that one profile.
Long press the original one for the arlo app and select delete.
Again, long press on the context that is remaining (AutoNotification Intercept) and tap add.
Now tap "time" and configure for the window you want this profile to be active.

[Huawei Mate 20 + Android 9] Tasker does not execute tasks

Hello guys,
I try to set tasker to my new Mate 20 phone. I installed it with all authorizations, and I disabled the automatic save power control.
I set a first task – turn Bluetooth ON at 9AM. The task is running but at 9AM the Bluetooth is steel OFF and on the screen I have a popup “Allow Tasker to enable Bluetooth ?”.
A second task – Put the phone in Vibration mode at 10AM. At 10AM the phone switch to Vibration, but on the screen I have another popup “The vibration mode is activated”.
Why these popups, what I missed ?
Thanks for your help
Sounds like those popups came from another app. Maybe some security app or a preinstalled app from Huawei, which monitors who enables / disables system services. Do you see those popus also when you enable / disable bluetooth in the phone settings?
Try to identify the app / service owner of the popup by pressing long onto the popup. When you see a context menue choose app info.
