Nice idea. One small dev definitely should consider is make app NOT TO RELOAD/SCAN FOR ACTIVITIES each time we open app. It's so annoying to launch an activity after such long scan. You can include an Update icon, once a new app is found installed...

Nexus 5X. When I hit my home button, my custom shortcuts disappear and can't access my widgets. I have to open the Google Now Launcher from the Activity Launcher to see my custom shortcuts. Also a tutorial would be nice in how to use some of these "hidden settings" and what they do. Obviously I won't mess with settings that could mess up my phone. Work out the bugs and I'll give 5 stars!

I dont understand. it launches what kind of activities? when I click each of the two items in the list, it starts something but it doesn't say what its doing. Please let me know so I can determine whether its something to keep or uninstall. thx.

Very simple. This app tells ordinary users the name of package and class of how to launch certain service (like if you want to make a shortcut on your application tray that opens display settings). But this app creates ugly icon. Use with application named More Shortcuts to work with beautiful icon packs (Under "Advanced" option where you need to specify the package and class)

Excellent!! I got my double tap back after the lastest LG update killed it. Works exactly as advertised. Ditch the black on black menu as it's hard to read.

by S####:

Could you please integrate this app into the native "shortcuts" menu. For example, when long-pressing the home screen of most 3rd party launchers and choosing to add a shortcut, all system activities would then be accessible. Something that should be a stock Android ability. Nova Launcher has this feature built in. Then, finally there will be a modern/acceptable replacement for anycut/bettercut.

I needed this to turn off that garbage knock-on "feature" on my LG. Worked perfectly, you just need to know what you're doing.

Find some app with error while launching.. what does that mean? What should i do? Pls give rply..

S70%
by S####:

Exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to make my own shortcut to get to a setting that normally required 4 steps to get to. Now I have a shortcut on my home screen that opens directly to it. Plus the process of making the shortcut was simple. No ads. And the scope of the shortcuts you could make was way beyond what I was expecting. Nice job!

My phone used to turn on in my pocket and now i can disable it with this also i can check files if they have viruses in them so thanks!

Let's you launch or trigger individual methods or modules of all your apps. Some of those triggers or options being unaccessible otherwise.

It does what is says and allows me to access some activities LG left in their ROM (on my LG Tribute) but didn't put settings shortcuts for, like navbar properties. Does what is says and works well!

All you jerkoff's that complain that the app doesn't do this or doesn't do that.. tell you what. UNINSTALL IT ! You bunch of ungrateful bitches...You go write the app and give it away for free. Ya bunch of pansie no good complainers...F YOU !

Hi!! Is there any chance to obtain more hidden activities like the Display Timeout panel or Network Mode!? I'd really apreciate your answer...first, Im not sure if these are activities too...more like panels with options :) Thanks in advance!!!

It crashes when i try to make a shortcut of certain things ;u;

On my Amazon Fire HD 8 this allowed me to access 'Apps With Usage Access', enable more sounds, access 'Cast Screen' aka 'Wireless Display' and allows me to stop ALL accounts from auto-syncing. I'd give this app 10 stars if I could.

Excellent. I was able to open up hidden setting type applications with this app. Coolpad Catalyst. Unfortunately tho I cant seem to root..But I wont give up the effort

Is as good as it could get to unveil functions producers don't want to make them visible for any stopped reason. Great tool. Thanks amigo!

You saved my life. I recently bought the Huawei Mate 8 L29 and for the hell of it, Huawei has decided that users do not need dual billing cycles for dual SIM phones. Thanks to your app via a post in XDA, I was able to access and set the data limit via the stock Android Marshmallow data usage UI. I use Apus launcher. Can't seem to add a shortcut.

by N####:

Very useful appp to access apps that are still in development, are not accessable in your country or just to learn about your phone. Warning! This app could be a security flaw on some phones, because you can access surten settings without needing to enter code/gesture/pin. (Right now on LG V10)

I tried to change "Recent activities" to "All activities". But after reading 17% of the applications installed on my phone, it keeps showing me this. "Unfortunately, Activity Launch has stopped." I'm wondering if you can fix this problem.. thanks! :)

The cache size for the application is very small. Loading more than 400 activities causes the app to crash before the entire app activity list is generated. Has not been updated in over a year. Uninstalled.

After the last update the screen got so sensitive that wake my phone with easy on pocket every time... And to make things worse.. (Android 6.0) LG decides to remove the the wake up knock control from settings...

C70%
by C####:

Doesn't have the ability to pass parameters to activities. Can't set custom activity actions - would be good to have presets for common actions such as android.intent.action.VIEW. Without this the usefulness of the app is reduced. Starting activities is also possible with many custom launchers such as Nova Launcher but they don't provide the option to set parameters either.

O70%

On my Nexus 9, menu is shown using black font on almost black background, and I've never played with dark theme or stuff like that... So it took me some time to figure out how to access activities, since I got only recent ones visible and a small black empty menu! 5 stars when menu color issue is fixedl

Finally got that stupid knock on feature turned off! Tried everything, supposed hidden menus, circle case etc. Nothing worked to keep my stupid phone from turning on in my pocket. You app worked amazingly! Thank you so much!!!

Enables access to the settings that certain manufacturers leave out of their stock settings, like data usage on the huawei p8

Finally able to launch sub-applications packaged within an app, like ES Media Player that comes with ES File Explorer. I love that shortcuts can be created & customized, including icon, for the home screen. I also love that it is open source (available in the F-Droid repository).
