User Reviews
Great app, but has a major flaw, and support is totally unresponsive. I created collections for all apps on my home screen, w/ hidden labels, but every time my phone restarts, every icon displays a label saying "Shortcut Maker." To make it worse, there doesn't appear to be a way to simply edit an existing icon to rehide the label...you have to completely recreate a new shortcut for the collection, with the label hidden. Would've given just one star, but it's a free app.
BEWARE!!! This just charged me $25.99 for the pro version which I did NOT authorize or initiate. This app used to be the best app for creating custom shortcuts. Sadly, it stopped working with Android 16 . I was hoping the dev would read the reviews & fix it that's why I left it installed. I haven't used it in months and today I see the charge on my debit card for $25.99 and I am PISSED. I've used it for years for free and now this. I would NEVER pay that much for an app.
Amazing! For some reason, you cannot use the native Files app in Android! Get it together Motorola & Google! Thankfully, this little gem of an app allows me to create a shortcut to my "Recent" files. The native Files app is the easiest and best to use. It's a shame I need multiple apps to access my files in Android. We used to be better than Apple!
Absolutely amazing, I love how capable this app is. There's only one thing that's REALLY testing my patience and makes it tempting to give 3 stars; if you go to hide an app so you can replace it with it's shortcut, EVERY shortcut you have will disappear so you have to put every-single-one-back. I've been trying to customize my phone for maybe 3 hours total, it gets a little hair pulling.
