QuickShortcutMaker Android App

Create shortcuts and access your apps in a snap

QuickShortcutMaker is an app that does exactly what its name suggests: makes shortcuts on your Android smartphone's screen. The main draw is that you can create shortcuts to apps, system processes, and activities within the apps themselves. This means that not only can you create a shortcut to, for example, the Gallery app, but you can also create one to the video editor within your Gallery app.
When you open QuickShortcutMaker, the first thing you'll see is the list of activities. Basically, this list contains all the apps you have installed, as well as a series of activities related to system processes. If you tap on any of the installed apps, you'll see a list of activities for that app. It's important to keep in mind that, while some apps have many activities (such as YouTube, for example), others may only have one.
One of the strengths of QuickShortcutMaker is that it lets you customize your shortcuts as you wish. You can choose both the icon and its name, so you can 'mask' them very easily. For example, you can change the icon of your Gallery app to make it look like a video game. You can also make an instant messaging app look like the official YouTube app. The possibilities are basically endless.
QuickShortcutMaker is an app that offers much more than meets the eye. It is incredibly useful for quickly accessing app menus and settings options, or to hide apps you don't want others to find on your Android. Or you can simply use it to add nicer icons.
