Hi there,
does anyone know a way how to hide apps from the drawer?
Google says i could use a different drawer (i don't want that) or i could disable them with tools like Titanium Backup (which needs root).
So any ideas? And why are there even TWO apps for Facebook and TWO Apps for Twitter?
I don't think you can hide drawer icons in Sense. You need to use a launcher like AWDLauncher.EX or Launcher Pro to be able to do that.
HTC has its own Facebook and Twitter apps/widgets, and the others are the official apps from the Android Market.
Hi,
The Halo multiwindow feature from ParanoidAndroid allows the System to open up any app in a floating window. However there are few alternative ways to launch an app in the multiwindow except for the original Halo bubble.
For people using tools like sidebars or similar applications, there's no option to do that.
That's why I developed the app HaloShortcut. My app allows you to create a shortcut that opens every app in the floating window provided by the Halo feature.
There's an app with similar functions called HaloShortcuts, which you should definitely try out. It comes with an additional search feature and most importantly, it's open source,
HaloShortcuts:
Provides a shortcut for every app/activity that will then start in a multiwindow
The Blacklist feature allows you to control whether an app starts in multi window depending on the currently used app
Doesn't appear in your home launcher nor does it run in the background at any moment
NEW Feature:
(Also works with the XHaloFloatingWindow XPosed extension)
Further information about the Halo project:

Changelog;
Version 3.2: Fixed Blacklist
Version 3.0: Complete new UI and added Blacklist Feature
Version 2.1: Shortcut labels now show correct name
Version 2.0: Shortcut support
Version 1.0: First release

Very cool, very handy. Thank you.

Is it possible to update this app to create shortcuts that point to "Shortcuts" in Android as well instead of just app shortcuts?
You know, the screen when u long press on the launcher and you get this page to create direct shortcuts to contacts, bookmarks, gmail labels etc.
Because it would be handy to create shortcuts that link to specific functions inside apps instead of having to launch the apps in windows mode and then navigating to the required functions i.e. shortcut to a specific whatsapp contact, specific settings screen.
Do consider it, or if anyone has a solution do let me know, thanks!

Hey, I implemented the requested feature, thanks for the support :good:
Hi , this app somehow is not working on my Xperia Z, running android 4.3
i cant see the app icon ANYWHERE in the phone, so cannot create a halo shortcut.
i tried the other halo shortcut you suggested at #1, that one only creates a shortcut on the home screen, so that's not too useful (i want to create a halo shortcut on notification bar)
Thanks
Works great! Thank you!
I like it! Great app

Hey, this app won't show up in any launcher, because that wouldn't make sense at all. But you should be able to access it from a popup dialog whenever you want to add a shortcut to something.
So in your app that makes the notification bar shortcuts, you have to select shortcuts and than select "HaloShortcut".
If you still have problems, tell me the name of the app that you are using and i'll see how to get it done

Hi,I've finally found the option, it is under "Bookmark" (not "App") when creating the halo shortcuts.
It is working if i create a desktop shortcut to open app with halo, but currently it doesn't work with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.nicolai.buch.andersen.ns&hl=en
which i try to add the halo shortcut to the notification bar, the app opens as normal.
Thanks
sorry

Hey, I tried the app and for me it worked flawlessly, so I can't tell you what the problem is
(I use the xposed halo module)
great work:good::good::good::good:
Works good for me so far with xHalo. All the possibilities are great. Thanks for the app.
Thanks fot your app.
But it doesnt work with XHFW3. (Xhalofloating window 3.16)
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.zst.xposed.halo.floatingwindow3
XHFW3 works with Android6.
Could you make it suitable with XHFW3?
Thank you.
Hey guys,
I saw that "Lockdown Pro" has an option to hide the app icon from the launcher, so if you want to launch it you need to press some code on your dialer like *##123##* or anything else of your choice.
I liked it
Is there an app to this to another apps?
For example, lets say I want to hide my "Flappy bird" app icon from the launcher (or any other app) and launch it with some code in the dialer.
Thanks,
Casteel
hmmm...
No such thing...?
the issues with Instagram and the Motot App Launcher only appeared after Android 10 update, these being, i can't set Instagram to default app ( i keep choosing as default app (either from settings or when tapping on a link) always the next time i try to open a link it asks me again how to open Instagram links), and it only happens with Instagram, i reinstalled and it didn't help, the other issue with the App Launcher is that the date on the Calendar icon (whether on home screen or in app drawer) doesn't change unless i force close the App Launcher from settings or restart the phone.
example of the instagram bug notice how before i tap on advanced, it says open by default, and i after i tap on it, it changes to no defaults set
Hello,
I've rooted my OP 7 Pro and I'va changed the default emojis for the Facebook 4.0 emojis, with a magisk module
It is working perfectly well
However in the Facebook and Facebook Messenger app, the emojis in the emojis Keyboard (Gboard) are the basic android emojis...
I've tried to install ios emojis, it is also working well in all apps, but the problem is still there in the Messenger app, when i want to insert emojis, i go in the emoji section in my keyboard and the old emoji are there...strange
(I dont talk about the way the messenger emojis look when you send a message in Messenger, but the way the emojis look in my keyboard wich is strange because they are great when i open other apps)
(I've just checked, if i use another keyboard such as SwiftKey, the problem disapear, so it seems to be a problem of the Gboard)
Does someone has the solution ?
