Bar Shortcut for Android
Great app. On major flaw in my eyes: shortcuts take up WAY too much room. Instead if square icons (like the other buttons in the notification bar) each shortcut takes up a full row and has an off putting grey background you can't change.
The best thing bout' this app is that it Uses very less memory, works even on the slowest android machine without crash/hangup or memory loss. Design and usability is very old skool, but has got almost every shortcut feature, except for widget integration.
Excellent. The only one of its kind STABLE app in the mrkt 'that gets UPDATED REGULARLY to REQUESTS'..very imp that the developer responds to us..
Would be better if they were horizontal all in one row. Hopefully you can add that option soon. Great work though.
This really helps me with my phone. My hardware home button recently stopped working and this has an excellent replacement.
A suggestion... it needs to close the current menu after a shortcut is clicked. I will go back into the bar, click on a folder for a new menu but the previous list of shortcuts will popup. I have to close it, then go into the new folder to click on a new shortcut. Other than that I love it.
Can't get it to work. Assign the shortcuts and save, but doesn't appear in my menu.
Easy way to add app shortcuts to the task bar, and even allows folders full of shortcuts. Very useful as an overall improvement to any android.
Love this app on my Droid but new Note 4 can't read black lettering on dark background ---- This app needs to let you change color of fonts.
Its working good. Need changes. Some upgrades. List folders must it one line not one by one. Its accupate more notification area. Otherwise good one.
So simple, perfect =] Edit : one suggestion would be an option to reorder shortcuts WITHIN a folder, or even create subfolders. Still great, though.
Pls decrease the size of icon of shortcuts in the notification bar. Big icons looking ugly.
5 star on Note 3 / 4.4.2. Please keep updating this app. Let's me keep settings and apps handy from drop down notifications screen. This will be app number 1 installed on a new phone. I would pay to keep the dev in coffee / food so he/she can continue.
I'm missing notifications because for every shortcut I put in the menu, I lose one spot on status bar. It's just black, EMPTY space. I'll keep 5 stars for now, to give dev a few days to fix (or at least reply) and go from there. If you don't need or care about this then it's perfect.
It does what it says it does. For free. At first the status bar icon that looks like and arrow w a plus in it will show up because it thinks there are too many notifications, but mine went away. It would be great if we could add more widgets, specifically the auto-rotate one. Other than that, this app is great.
Been looking for something like this from day 1, since some widgets look ugly. This is a gem in the market. Surprised its not that well known.
App works fine. I'm going to uninstall it because it leaves as blank space in my notification bar whenever anything else is up there. I'm too Type A for that...
works great.. and stable.. wish-1: if you one more item into "all settings" shortcut menu. for android 2.3.4 , battery & data manager - data delivery.. (because 4g setting shortcut doesnt work on 2.3.4).. wish-2: horizontal alignment on the bar.. then it will be perfect.. thanks.. :)
There's a blank space being added at the status bar (upper left corner) pls. add an option to hide the blank space icon.
After my last android update, icons no longer show up in the drop down list.

Amazing....Thanks bro....keep it up....God bless you....You are great....
Excellent way to get to shortcuts from in other apps (rotation lock), easier to call when not able to scroll through contacts, and makes the location consistent when you don't have time to look.
This app repaces barcontrol for me but it has problem with keeping the shortcuts on the notification bar. Sometimes it would randomly remove a shortcut.
Simple. Does what I need it to do without taking up too much space. I was missing the ability to quick compose a text withouth leaving whatever screen I was on. This plus contacts+ app solved that problem for me. Cheers!
I love this app. Every smart phone user should have this app. Option to show shortcut in white doesn't seem to work on my phone, but it's a small detail, no worries be happy.
Just what I needed, now I can make calls whilst using navigation etc
Best thing since sliced bread! Many thanks!
Direct dial icons show up in notification bar but no action when clicked on SG4
The shortcuts disappeared sometimes , please fix!
5 stars if d font size cud b edited nd it wud b better if there r different tabs.( like in htc phones)
This app works perfectly with 4.1 on my Galaxy Nexus and allows me to customize my pull-down choices on the notification bar just how I like them. I use Tasker to create what I want to happen, then have Bar Shortcut fire-off the shortcut. I pick whatever icon I want it to be with tasker, and have a ton of control. WISHES: --Change background color (or remove color and just have an icon with text) --More than one per row --Separator bars
They are added top to bottom instead of small icons left to right. Takes up to much room on drop down. "Launch From" is better
excellent, just what I was looking for! quick access from the bar instead of going to home, which can be very laggy sometimes. thanks dev!
Great time saver. Developer clearly is a beast. Apps easy to peep.
The only improvement I can think of would be the ability to customise the icons and text. Running sense 3.5 on the HTC Desire
Wonderful! Thank you very much! Hope that your app is better in the future. Thanks.
It occupies empty places in top bar.

I used this app with the Samsung Discover and worked great. Unfortunately with the new Samsung Grand Prime I cannot make groups for Direct call and Direct message. Could you try to fix. Thanks. The rest still works great.
