    I saw on a video that you can get the next alarm with or without count down on your lock screen
    how can i set the next alarm on lock screen?
    also is it possible to get tasker widgets on lock screen with lollipop or just notification?

    Have you tried with AutoAlarm? :)
    You can only get notifications on the lock screen

    Yes i tried autoalarm $hour variable and i can see the time of the alarm
    but on one of your videos i think i can see like a count down bar until the alarm goes
    also if i set permanent notifications will it drain the battery in a way cause the task is running all day?

    Hmm, what video are you referring to exactly? I don't recall making such a video.
    A permanent notification won't drain your battery :) It will not cause any task to continuously run, don't worry.

    Oh, I see :) that's actually a simple counter that increases every hour. No alarms are involved in that example.
    AutoAlarm has the %minutes variable which gives you the minutes to the next alarm for example. If you create a notification with a progress bar where max is 1440 (number of minutes in a day) and the current value is %minutes it should work :)

    I tried what you did
    just for testing i set max to 100
    then i set the alarm to go in 30 minutes
    so in action i set autoalarm first
    then %minutes gives me 30
    so the progress bar should be half
    in the current i set it to %minutes andd when i play it the progress is empty
    but if instead of %minutes is set it to 30 it works
    why the variable isnt working?

    I figured it out why it didt worked
    because the numbers i get from %minutes are not round
    correct?

    You could also use the split action to get rid of the decimal part :) But whatever works for you!
