Tasker - Total Automation for Android
- Tasker unable to toggle Wi-Fi (workarounds?)
First, I know it's an API thing and not a Tasker issue. However, this sucks balls. I don't use Tasker often because I have battery life issues but I'll be damned if I go to use it and find that Google fucked it up.
Can I get this function back if I root my phone or run an alternate OS like Graphene? I'm edging ever closer to have a fully customized and controlled device for personal use and a standard, locked-down device for work.
- Bluetooth Disconnect Google Pixel Buds
I have a task to disconnect from all my Bluetooth devices at night, but it won't work for my Pixel Buds. From what I can tell, the problem is that the case, the right, and left earbuds all share one MAC Address. Any ideas on how I can differentiate the three and manually disconnect from all of them?
- Fingerprint unlock for Pixel in-screen readers
Not sure if this is a log that Android 14 exposed but when I first got my 7a I could not get fingerprint actions working. Anyway it works now.
When setting a Logcat Entry event under Profiles, search for a "Biometrics/AuthenticationClient" Component in the log. Then try filtering for something like "onAuthenticated(true), ID:123456789", the individual finger ID. Tasks can then be fired off on unlock.

Important Note: This version will not be available on Google Play until I come back because I don't want to risk breaking something with an "official" release and then not be here to fix it. Instead, I'll be directing people to this thread so they can get their fixes (check the changelog below) if needed.
Sign up for the beta here.
If you don't want to wait for the Google Play update, get it right away here.
You can also get the updated app factory here.
If you want you can also check any previous releases here.
Set Sensitive Clipboard Data
Demo: https://youtube.com/shorts/boWHz5dShQo
If you're on Android 13 and above, there's a new option in the Set Clipboard action that allows you to mark the clipboard data you're setting as sensitive.
That will make the little system clipboard bubble not actually show what you set on your clipboard.
It's not much, but might be cool in certain situations :)
