Accessibility services

Hi all,

I have had an issue with my Accessibility services, particularly my password manager (Roboform) and Tasker, being "deactivated" after rebooting. They show that they are On, but I have to manually turn them off then on again to have them work properly. Has this issue been experienced by anyone else?

I am using Tasker and cannot confirm such a behaviour.

Same here. I use BitDefender Total Security and Weberdo (CopyText & Screenshot) which both uses accessibility services. If I restart the devices they get turned off.

Note: they both are enabled in auto-manager and battery optimisation.

I am using many other apps which I use almost constantly which are dependent on accessibility services and cannot confirm such a behaviour after restart at all. Why is our experience so different?

So just because you don't don't have this problem doesn't mean there's no probkem. He has this problem.....so do I. I'm here to acknowledge his problem.

@_jis_ , do you have the AutoInput plugin by Tasker? After a few tests, it seems to be an issue for me with that rather than the main Tasker app. I will reach out to my password manager developers to see if the issue has occurred on their end. Maybe its an Android issue in general. I have no idea.

I just noted that I use not one or two, but many applications which are dependent on accessibility services without your problem. Then you need to ask yourself what is the primary cause of the problem. I wanted to push you to this thought.

By no means did I want to provoke an offended attitude.
