2026-09-06	Ro*****	I paid JUST to detect whether I'm connected to the wifi, and which AP, and run automations based on that. Ridiculous that an app like this can't even do that properly with HyperOS. Wifiman does flawlessly, but can't start automations. And I made sure to give all permissions, including the hidden ones like WiFi control.

2026-08-25	Bi*****	My experience with the TASKER app is Very very BAD. I purchased the app on 22.08.26 but I'm finding it too complex to operate and some activites require downloading other add-ons which mess up the UI and asked for a refund on same day but was denied. I'm really shocked as this is the first time for me. The app and its developer is NOT AT ALL USER FRIENDLY. Please give the refund immediately. On contacting the developer through email for refund, he said NO saying "I'm not here". Unbelievable.

2026-08-21	Gá*****	I purchased this especially to automate Bluetooth state. The option is there but when I finally setup everything it turned out the app cannot control Bluetooth. After some tinkering I even ran out of the trial period so I cannot refund it. There is a solution to install another app on the top of this to get it working but this is not what someone expects when purchasing it.

2026-08-21	Sh*****	I purchased Tasker and AutoInput specifically to automatically answer WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business calls when my Xiaomi earbuds are connected, including while the phone is locked. I spent many hours configuring profiles, permissions and automation, but AutoInput repeatedly timed out and could not interact with the WhatsApp Answer control on my Xiaomi 17 Pro Max (HyperOS 3/Android 16). The experience was extremely frustrating and I ultimately could not achieve my intended automation.
