Android team shows how beautiful Tasker could be with modernized UI [VIDEO]

Googlers Nick Butcher, Roman Nurik and Adam Koch get together and re-imagine Tasker as an app that looks like it was designed in 2012 instead of 2008. It makes use of better fonts, image resources, the best Android design practices as outlined in Google’s official style guideline and more to make Tasker look like a the mobile app equivalent of Shakira instead of Whoopi Goldberg.

What do you think the odds are for a Tasker UI update?

I wish Tasker would get an update, it needs one so badly, i think it is lacking in so much, the Android team definitely made it look a lot better.

Odds are close to 100%. The developer is already working on the new UI:

The 3 most pressing major issues currently are:

- scenes are not good enough to be used for app creation
- Tasker UI is dated
- many parts of Tasker are using deprecated APIs which will be
removed by Google at some point

I've decided that the most important issues are the last two....
