The most useful profile I use Tasker for is controlling ringer volume at specific times. I always run it on vibrate at home and away from work (I have a watch for important notifications). So if I’m at work and in the office I set the ringer to lowest level 1 so I hear it but it doesn’t go off super loud in a meeting or whatever. If I’m at work and out of the office (in the plant or outside on site) the ringer is at full volume. Automatically goes back to vibrate when I leave the property. Next step to this is when I’m on call. I need to hear my phone ring when I’m on call so when my Google calendar event called weekend duty is occuring I have a profile that keeps my phone on vibrate but when a call is incoming it
sayssets it to the loudest setting before it starts ringing. This prevents me wife and I from hearing notification dings and beeps from daily use.This is my favorite use for Tasker but I have others that are almost as good. Maybe this sparked a little inspiration for you.
I get it, that sounds useful. But in my case I leave my phone silences 24/7 and only put on my watch when I want to get notifications. This has been by far my favortite way to manage notifications. Thanks for the reply. I keep trying to think of something to use it for.
