[Samsung Galaxy Gear] cvondra:
I am in no way attempting to take credit for this program or any profiles created unless my name is annotated next to a published link. Support these guys buy buying their app(s) as this is a tremendous backend for amazing automation for today and the future.

In an effort to help everyone new to Tasker (and its associated apps like AutoRemote) and its capabilities, I'm starting this thread to list profiles that people are actively using on their gear.

What is Tasker?

Tasker is an application for Android which performs tasks (sets of actions) based on contexts (application, time, date, location, event, gesture) in user-defined profiles or in clickable or timer home screen widgets.

What are some of the things I can use these apps for?

While the number of uses for Tasker is limitless and only supressed by your imagination, here is a list of published tasker profiles that people have created for common yet out of the box thinking type usage: Tasker Profiles

Here are only some of the things you could do with Tasker, it's real power is the flexibility to combine contexts and tasks however you wish.

passcode-lock sensitive applications (e.g. for child safety)

change phone settings by

*application: long screen timeout in a book reader

*time: screen brightness lower in the evening

*location: ringer volume high at the office, turn off ke yguard at home

wake up with a random song from your music collection

Text-to-speech; read out loud: incoming SMS/ phone number, WiFi/Bluetooth status, when it's time for an appointment, when the battery is low etc etc (Android OS 1.6+ only)

launch a music application when your music SD card is inserted, otherwise a file browser

start the day with a particular application showing

change all your home icons and wallpaper every day, or in particular locations

turn the phone upside down to return to the home screen, tilt 90 degrees to the left and back to toggle speakerphone during a call

create a Home widget to

*toggle bluetooth/wifi on/off

*launch wireless settings dialog

*show a menu of tasks to choose

*send an emergency SMS with your GPS location

remap camera etc buttons to other applications, or show a menu of applications and/or actions

zip/unzip application data on the fly when an application is launched/exits

pause music playback while in a particular application, restart on exit

change the Home icon for any application

take a time-lapse photo series (possibly 'secretly')

make a regular backup of a file on the SD card

extend the use of the media button on your headset: take a picture from a distance or go to the previous media track with a long press

record call times and destinations to the SD card

show a popup when an SMS arrives from a particular phone number

setup a birthday SMS to be sent months before it happens so you don't forget

record battery levels over time to a file on SD card

make automatic recordings of what you say during phone calls to SD card

during the night, turn on airplane mode to conserve battery/reduce radiation, but turn it off every 15 minutes to check for SMS/voicemail.
