Every year since I can remember Google has hit my apps with some kind of policy issue right around the time I’m about to go away for a bit in the Summer. This year is no exception.

Some users have started receiving this warning when trying to use Google Drive features with Tasker:

Google suddenly needs me to justify why Tasker needs full Google Drive access. However, they didn’t warn me or anything; they simply cut off access without any previous notice. Now, I need to go through the process of justifying Tasker’s access to the Google Drive API: make a video, have them respond to my justification with (undoubtedly) a reason why it’s not sufficient, then add more to the justification and go round and round until eventually they accept it. This process sucks because I shouldn’t be working right now :P

Oh well, at least Tasker seems to be relatively stable, so hopefully there won’t be too much trouble while I’m gone.

Hope you all have a great time! Love you! ❤️

Cheers!
