The following simple Application Profile operates correctly from Tasker but never selects either Task when packaged as an APK by App Factory.  Is there an obvious correction?


Profile: Sample
Application: Camera
Enter: SampleEnter
A1: Flash [ Text:Sample Enter Long:Off ]
Exit: SampleExit
A1: Flash [ Text:Sample Exit Long:Off ]


This is on a Droid Turbo 2 running 6.0.1

did you enable your app in the android acessability settings?

When you create the profile with the Application context make sure the App button at the bottom of the screen is selected.

When you build the app in App Factory a dialog appears.
In Min Android Version set it to at least 16.
Build the app and install it.
In System Settings/Accessibility go to your listed app and set it On.

The profiles in the app that monitor Applications will now work.

Make sure the min APK version in the kid config is higher. 20 should
do it. The exact needed is described in App Creation in the userguide
I believe.

(It would be great if the user guide could mention this.)

Thanks.
