Ratings and 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.

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 perfect! I use it for "sticky notes" on my home screen. Being able to put a visual link to a url, file, whatever & give it both the name & icon I select puts "must do" items right in front of me every time I pick up my phone or tablet. Then I just remove the shortcut after. No separate app to open, nothing at all on the screen unless I need it to be.
