Comments on Smart Shortcuts for Android

★★★★★ Love it! My home screen was such a mess...now everything is put into groups-each with one icon. Eight messy home pages became two pages of icons that I made. It's easier and faster to locate the specific app or bookmarked web page that I want to open.

★★★★★ Almost perfect I use this to create custom folders to keep my most used apps easily accessible so my HTC One M8 stays uncluttered and clean. I'm able to use my custom folder icons too. There are two drawbacks. One is that the shortcuts can't be adjusted in a custom order. They're either in alphabetical order or 'starred first' order. The second is that the shortcuts can't be renamed. I would gladly pay for those added features.

★★★★★ Excellent App This is the best app organizer I've found. I use it, not only to place shortcuts on my home screens and dock, but I also place shortcuts in Swamps. Great work, devs, please keep it updated!!

★★★★★ Fantastic Wanted to have a folder of my family contacts on the home page. Does this and much more.

★★☆☆☆ 2.5 stars. It's so-so. It has limited icons for home screen shortcut folders & the icons do not stay. They revert to the app icon, (photos on top of the gear), every time you reboot, or battery runs out, etc. This gets to be VERY aggravating especially when you have several shortcut folders on your home screen. Please fix this.

★★☆☆☆ Crash, crash, crash, crash, did I mention it crashes? Open, select "application shortcuts", wait while "initializing for first use", runs through installed apps, wait, wait, wait, (it has been completed all/X apps during all the noted 'wait' periods, then CRASHES. Repeat infinitely because it does it every time.
