Shortcut creation activity #257

Description

@bb1a2

There are at least two ways to add a shortcut in Android:

  1. Through the app: like what ActivityLauncher does currently. But it adds the shortcut to the default launcher/home screen only.

  2. Through the launcher: the same as a widget. You long press on the home screen and choose add shortcut. Then you are presented with the different shortcut creating dialogues/activities declared by the apps in the manifest.

    • This is the only way to add a shortcut to a non-default launcher (like these: 1, 2, 3, 4).

In the second case, I would go to my launcher, tap "Add a shortcut", get a list of shortcuts of available apps, tap on ActivityLauncher which will open an activity to choose the desired activity.

Like this screenshot from an app launcher:

This should be simple enough.

Thanks
