    Hello,
    I can set up AutoVoice to work fine, but after a while (<12 hours), it stops working. When I open AutoVocie it says that Google Now integration isn't enabled. However, when I open accessibility settings it says that both Tasker and AutoVoice Google Now integration are enabled.

    After some fiddling with the accessibility settings it starts working again. An example of what I just did to fix it a moment ago:
    1. Disable and enable AutoVoice Google Now Integration in accessibility settings. AutoVoice still doesn't work.
    2. Disable and enable Tasker in accessibility settings. AutoVoice still doesn't work.
    3. Disable both Tasker and AutoVoice Google Now Integration in accessibility settings.
    4 Enable first Tasker and then AutoVoice Google Now integration. Now it works again.

    Technical information:
    Phone: Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge
    OS: Android 5.1.1
    Auto voice version: 2.0.46
    Tasker version: 4.8m

    Any help appreciated. Thank you!

    UPDATE: It just happened again. I did steps 3 and for above, and it works again.

    Hi. Did you try enabling the foreground option in AutoVoice? The Galaxy S6 is known for killing services when it shouldn't :)

    Maybe you need to configure AutoVoice in the Smart Manager app? Does the S6 have that?

    Do you have any other app that might be killing AutoVoice in the background?

    Don't know what that could be. I don't think AutoVoice being killed in the background is the problem though, since the problem persists even when I open the AutoVoice app manually.

    Yes, but the service isn't automatically re-started when you open the app. It only restarts if you manually do so in the accessibility settings..

    Sorry, don't really know. :( This isn't happening to everyone else, so it's most probably device specific...

    hi,
    similiarly, i also faced this issue, on my device "Huawei Ascend Mate 7" which do not have the many reported issues on Samsung devices.

    I enabled tasker and AutoVoice in my accessibility, turn off optimized brightness, no LUX or what app managers in Samsung devices.
    After 5mins ~ 10mins or so, both will be switched off.. unable to figure out anything.

    Was able to test out everything smoothly last night continuously till i installed Open Mic+ to change Ok GOogle to something else.

    Normal apps can't turn off accessibility services so there must be some system app on your phone that's doing it is my guess..

    Sorry, as said it must be some other app or system setting on your system that's doing that...
