Hey, so I got Lightning Launcher about a week ago and I have told every person I know how incredible it is and how in love with it I am, seriously, amazing job on this. Have had a couple issues though, one being anytime I have Tasker to set a variable it kicks me out of any app I have open and I’m forced back to the home screen. Tried to set something up where a play/pause button changed if a song was playing or not and instead I ended up just having Spotify close on me every time I picked a song. Anyone got a fix for this?

  1. In the Tasker action, instead of selecting Lightning Variable, use Lightning Script. In that case you will have the option to run the script in the background. The content of the script could be:

    LL.setVariableString(‘your_variable_name’, LL.getEvent().getData());

    Wow, that works a lot better, thank you. Assuming it’s not impolite to stack questions, I was also wondering, every time I unlock my phone it goes strait to the home screen rather than what ever app was open like the default launcher. Is there a way to change that?
