Hi,

I have a profile that has to trigger an alarm when I'm in the radius of 1km of a certain location. That works fine as long as my phone (Samsung S8+) is unlocked. But when it's locked, nothing happens. Any ideas, please.

P.S. The Power mode of my phone is set to High performance.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there.
To make sure Tasker and the AutoApps run in the foreground please check here: https://tasker.joaoapps.com/userguide/en/faqs/faq-problem.html#00

Pay special attention to the location part. If Tasker doesn't have permission to get location in the background it might not work correctly, so disable and re-enable the location permission and make sure that you allow Tasker to always access it.

Make sure to check here too: https://dontkillmyapp.com/?app=Tasker

Hope this helps!
