    Hello,
    i'm searching for a task that kills current foreground app.
    I tried following this guide
    https://plus.google.com/+JoãoDias/posts/SmkfnwexbV6
    Maybe that post is outdated? Also there is no link to the xml file.
    Can someone give me suggestions how to get it working with tasker and maybe autoinput?

    Thank you!
    That worked... Except one thing that occurs.
    I managed to import the task and exported it as an app then linked the app with a swipe gesture to execute. The task is working and the foreground app closes but it keeps repeatedly closing till i open another app.
    I'm on Android 9.0.

    So fixed it by loading my home app (Nova Launcher) at the end of the task.

    Hm when i try to exit chrome it goes back till the last website in tab is closed and then finally chrome closes itself.
    Any possibility to kill app instead of going back?
