Description
Taskkill is a taskkiller plugin for Locale/Tasker that allows you automate killing a specific app. TaskKill does not operate on its own, and requires either Tasker, or Locale
Taskkill does not specifically require root, but it is recommended.
**IMPORTANT: Make sure you have tasker (or Llama) enabled in the Accessibilty settings of Android.
The following options are
* Simple: (Does not need root) Asks the target app to quit. Does not force the matter at all.
* Advanced: (Requires Root) Kills the PID of the target app. Apps with background processes may startup again.
* Extreme: (Requires Root And ICS+) Recommended method. This kills the target app using the same method as going to the app under settings and clicking "Force Close"
* Hardcore: (Requires Root) Only use as a last resort. This kills the target app by disabling its package and re-enabling it. **WARNING Hardcore may remove shortcuts from the homescreen.

Comments on TaskKill Tasker Plugin [Root] for Android
★★★★★
Does exactly what I need I tried lots of methods to kill my satnav app within a Tasker profile but just couldn't get anything to work. This is the best app that works for my requirements and being a Tasker-compatible plug-in makes its use so much easier.
★★★★★
Essential Tasker plugin Spent an inordinate amount of time trying to get Tasker to kill certain apps but to no avail, and just when I was about to give up I stumbled upon this plugin. Kills all apps, no surrender!
★★★★★
Essential plug-in for Llama Installed this as part of my ES Startup Manager / xPrivacy permission monitoring / Llama task killing. Rooted Llama was unable to force-close many of my problem apps and TaskKill is the answer! I know Android does a fine job managing memory but several cached apps were still polling phone/net info so this setup automatically force closes these problem apps after being idle a few minutes. Thanks for a great tool!
★★☆☆☆
DROID X - fail Only allows 'simple' method on my DROIDX. Running Locale. Doesn't kill apps at all.
★★☆☆☆
I can't find it in Tasker Probably doing something wrong, but I can't find it in Tasker!
★★☆☆☆
WHERE IS IT???? I have installed this app but nowhere to be found in tasker plugin options nor it does kill anything..

Used to work great, now it just stops on load This app used to work perfectly, but now it stops after attempting to load. The bug fix did not help.
