With Pie in mind.. I have re-themed the default sidebar style.

I have also rectified the issue with the floating calculator not disabling as expected, increased the amount of clicks before the premium reminder to 60, added HTC Glove Mode tile & done a little bug squashing.

Just upgraded to a new phone. I need to apply the adb commands to get the secure settings permission. But, the instructions now lead me to a "404" web page. Can I find the info anywhere else?

Nevermind..... I found the command string I needed. The app still sends you to a non existent web page though.....

How did you add a custom tile to the widget if we can't edit then?

Upon further investigation, it seems shortcutter allows for only a limited number of custom tiles that can be added to a widget, in my case I have reached it and my widget had only 9 custom tiles, while I would like to add a 10th tile shortcutter does not allow me to do it. What is the point of this limitation, annoying. All the while I could add a dozen more "system" tiles to the same widget. The imposed limit seems quite thoughtless and arbitrary.

Hi,

It's neither thoughtless or arbitrary, each widget addition requires a new class to be created to support that item, there are 9 custom classes at present.

In the past QS custom tiles were less, as were sidebar custom tiles & users have simply asked me to add more which I have done... It's never been requested for widgets and I only tend to use 2 from the widget... So rather than having a dig and being rude a simple ask would have been a much better approach.

To edit a custom tile in the widget (the RemoteView widget class can be a little restrictive & doesn't allow for long press actions) you need to edit the widget, remove the tile and re add it.

Hey brother, your app rocks big time! I purchase the premium version. I now have Full Screen Immersive by individual app on my lowly LG Stylo 3 just like what is built into my LG Pro 2 and G4! Way stinking SWEEEEEET!

Back in the old Android 4 days KK used to allow rotation of the Home Screen. Any way to enable that in your app? There's a couple apps out there that will do just that but then the Home Screen Icons don't show properly.

Using s10+... is there any way for the screenshot toggle to activate the inbuilt screenshot? The reason I am asking is because the native screenshot has the ability to edit on the notification right there but not the screenshots taken by shortcutter...

I will be adding the option to trigger screen shot using an accessibility service in the next release.

The only way to currently do it is to enable the root method which obviously requires a rooted device.

Would love some feedback on the app guys, I can't seem to break the 20k users barrier and attrition is still too high for my liking.

Lots of good feedback from active users and plenty of installs, but it's almost impossible to get insight into those users that are uninstalling the app.

    A little more progress!

    As far as Instagram & SnapChat story's go, I haven't found a workaround as yet, it appears all apps that intercept the volume keys using accessibility have the same issue.

    v7.1.3:
    * Fix SystemUI Tuner Tile.
    * Fix Settings Secure hyperlink.
    * Begin mapping long press actions to pull-down tiles.
    * Add Cast Volume to Volume Panel (when active).
    * Improve Volume Panel enter/exit transition.
    * Stop Volume Panel closing dialogs.
    * Only show shortcut status toast when state has changed.
    * Translation Updates.
    * Bug Fixes.

    You can export the apps settings in the app settings tab, then copy the file to your new device and restore it ;)

    I haven't stopped offering support as such it's just very limited.

    Dude to play store requiring higher target APIs for app updates I'm unable to update the app in its current form as it will break almost all functionality... I'm planning on building a new iteration of the app and allowing existing users to migrate without losing their premium keys ;)
