[Q] Shortcut to Recent Call Log

[syu78]

I'm trying to create a shortcut to open up the Recent Call Log versus opening up the dialer. I'm using Apex Launcher and searched through activities, but can't seem to find the one that leads to the Recent Call Log. Any suggestions?

I am using Nova Launcher, but it should be the same:

Thanks. That activity brings up the recent call log selection screen (where I can check recent calls to delete or edit). I'm looking for the recent call log screen where I can simply swipe to right to dial or left to message.

I can use your activity and simply press bback button after it is launched, but am hoping for a more direct method.

Oh OK.

Open Activities > Contacts (same place as before) and scroll all the way down to 5 green phone icons in a row. Find Phone > RecentCallsListActivity (3rd phone icon from the top), that should do it.

Hmm... Make sure to look under Activities > Contacts > Phone and not under Activities > Phone.

Carrier shouldn't matter, but a launcher might. You may want to try Nova Launcher just to see if this option is available.

Also, there is always an app for everything: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.erikofsweden.erikutil

I don't see the Phone submenu under Activities>Contancts. Tried looking for it with Xshortcuts too.

I've tried that app out, but there's a significant lag opening Recent Calls.

Thanks for you help and info.
