I used Tasker a lot more back when android wasn’t as mature as it is now. Nowadays I use it sparringly, but it’s an invaluable tool to have access to. When you run into something you cannot do directly through Android, odds are Tasker can fix it for you.

This is one of my simple tasks. We have a shared laundry room. You can only register one person per apparment and therefore only one phone number. When the machines are done washing, only I receive a text message. With Tasker, I forward this message automatically to my SO, so that we’re both notified.

On the more superfluous side: I have an old Stadia controller - Rip Stadia :'(. Now when I connect the controller to my phone, it automatically launches XBOX game pass, which is nice, but by no means essential.

Once I made a complicated Tasker task that ran on a secondary phone. By saying certain prompts through Google Home using autovoice, I could switch the country on my VPN on my router. All voice prompts, connections to the router and commands were setup and handled within Tasker.

So in short. If you identify repetitive tasks that you’re always doing manually, then odds are you can spend some time in Tasker to create automations for them. Then again, sometimes you get to spend way longer time tinkering than you’d ever do doing the manual task :-D
