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.

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?

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?feature=share

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 :)

Full Changelog

Added ability for Set Clipboard action to mark data as sensitive so it doesn't show up in Android's share bubble on Android 13+

Fixed Authentication Dialog working incorrectly in some situations

Fixed app crashing when checking the help for Tasker > Settings > Collision Handling

Fixed exporting apps with App Factory for some users

Fixed Wifi permission message for kid apps (it was showing Tasker instead of the app's name)

Fixed being able to use App Shortcuts in kid apps

Fixed some tasks being stuck running when Tasker is disabled in some situations

Fixed license checking being too strict in some situations
