Title: [Feature Request] Support for App Shortcuts and Manual Activity Launch (Intent Configuration)
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, QuickBall acts as a standard app launcher (opening the main activity). It lacks the ability to:
- Access standard App Shortcuts (the menu appearing on long-press in stock launchers).
- Launch specific Activities or system functions directly, which is useful for accessing hidden settings or specific app states without navigating through the UI.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like QuickBall to support advanced shortcut customization, similar to the app "Activity Launcher" (de.szalkowski.activitylauncher).
Key Features Requested:
-
Standard Shortcuts Support:
When adding an app to QuickBall, allow selecting from its static/dynamic shortcuts (e.g., "New Chat" for WhatsApp, "Navigate Home" for Maps). -
Advanced/Manual Activity Configuration:
Add an option to manually configure a shortcut by specifying the intent details.- Target Package: (e.g.,
com.delphicoder.flud) - Target Class: (e.g.,
com.delphicoder.flud.TorrentSearchActivity) - Custom Name & Icon
- Target Package: (e.g.,
Example Use Case:
- Power User Scenario: I want to create a QuickBall button that launches a specific system setting or a hidden activity in an app (like the "Torrent Search" screen in Flud) without opening the main app first.
- Reference: The UI could offer a "Pick Activity" list or "Edit Shortcut" screen similar to Activity Launcher, where we can see and edit the Package and Class names.
Additional Context
This would transform QuickBall from a simple navigation tool into a powerful system automation floater.
