You have to create condition when those tasks will be run.Ĭlick + at bottom of screen, and select State, then select Net, and WiFi Connected.

You can also use copy/paste to copy the “Send Intent” item to save some typing.Īgain you can test the task to check if X-plore’s WiFi sharing will be disabled. If you use both contexts in the same profile, Tasker will only enable Wifi to check for Wifi Near IF youre already in the radius specified by the Location context. Now go back to Tasks, and repeat steps above to create task for disabling WiFi sharing, except for Action you will write “off” instead of “on”.

Toggling cannot take place when the Wifi Tether (Hotspot) is enabled on the device. On Android 6+ this is rarely needed, unless you disabled the Scanning Always Available option in Android settings. Toggle Wifi: if Wifi on the device is disabled, enable it for the period of the scan, probably around 15 seconds. Min Activate Signal Level: the minimum signal strength to activate the context. If any of the parameters are specified, the AP must match that parameter, otherwise any AP will match. On recent Android versions wifi scanning is only available for apps with the location permission, so that's why Tasker asks for it. The device is near a Wifi Access Point (AP).
