Does not work on Poco for the specific shortcut I wanted. An error message pops up when U click the shortcut icon saying its a security issue. I dont know if this happens with all shorts or just some. Would have potential if it worked. Ive just done some experimenting, It seems that only the actual apps work as shortcuts, the others don't work at all. What's the point of that? I already have all my apps in my app drawer ready to use, don't need this app for that.

So useful. After an 'update' where Google removed the driving dashboard, I was stuck with my phone launching a web page about how to use the driving assistant every time it connected to my car's bluetooth. And because the menu was gone (or rather, hidden) the only thing I could do was forget it and start again. However, this tool shows that the settings are still there and can be changed. This is saying nothing about the different shortcuts the app allows you to create to streamline things. A+

It was never a perfect app but useful at certain times. This was privacy friendly, but the latest update has new permissions with advertising and full internet access. Now, it collects data as well as per the data safety category. Seems like the whole new update was to include advertising. Not sure if this version is still open source like it used to be -- Edit to ur response: You said analytics. But the data safety page says that you are collecting location and activity for ads and marketing.

Hi, we just added google analytics to help us analyse crashes and optimize most frequent use cases. You will always be able to get a free open-source version from GitHub and F-Droid. There will also be a paid version on Google Play without analytics, if you prefer that.
