TL;DR - Can’t update on Google Play, please test the “Network Access” action with these APKs directly if you can:

Tasker

App Factory

Thank you!

Full Story below…

Last week I posted about a Tasker update being rejected because it uses VpnService, which apparently I can’t do now on Google Play.

I spent all week trying to convince Google to allow the update because Tasker doesn’t even use the VPN to access any remote server, only to block apps from accessing the network, but all they say is that I’m not compliant with their policies.

So, like I did before with other numerous actions, I’m moving this to Tasker Settings and hopefully it’ll continue working well from there.

The problem now is that, like with the REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES permission last time, Google needs me to update ALL RELEASE TRACKS with a version of the app that doesn’t use VpnService. This means that I can’t test any more releases in beta on Google Play and will need to update the app in production directly.

This is a pain because I really needed to test this change with more people.

Nevertheless, I hope someone here can test the Network Access action for me with the direct links above.

Thank you very much in advance!

Direct-Purchase Version

The direct-purchase version is unaffected by this and can continue using the Network Access action normally without the need for Tasker Settings

Full Changelog

Made Network Access action be executed by Tasker Settings if not using the direct-purchase version
Fixed Project/Profile/Task variables being set to old values sometimes
