Autoinput tasker task won’t work in the morning (Ring alarm disable)

[Ricky Spanish]

I have a task that disables my ring alarm in the morning:

Context:

Between 7am – 10am

If notification *Ring alarm*entry delay*landing*

If Wifi connected *mywifi*

Variable set %AUTOALARMDISABLE to %Time %Date

Autoinput Turnon

Autoinput unlock screen

Launch app – Ring

Wait 2 seconds

Media volume 10

Say "Attempting to disable alarm."

Wait 4 seconds

Autoinput action *click disarm*

Wait 4 seconds

Autoinput action *click disarm*

Wait 4 seconds

Autoinput action *click disarm*

Autoinput homescreen

When I try the task, it works fine. However, in the morning it never works. I have accurate alarms enabled in tasker and battery optimization turned off for both tasker and autoinput.

Can anyone offer any help why it doesn’t work when required? Is something being put to sleep? I sometimes get a message like "autoinput cannot unlock screen in current state", but am not sure if that relates to this. Maybe the alarm triggered notification isn't coming through. What a pain.

On another note can anyone offer any better way to do this?

screen has to be on with auto input. it's emulating bgg screen touches. so add a screen on command before using auto input.

there are many ways to turn in screen depending on if it is locked or not. Google it for those ways. many good posts on how to wake up phone.

I do have a screen on command. I think the issue is by the time morning comes my pattern lock has engaged due to inactivity on the phone. Is there a way round this?

Maybe you could wake your device like every half hour with AutoInput so it never times out? Not sure if that'll work...
