One of, if not thee most, useful productivity app that I have installed on my phone. Does exactly like what is says on the tin. I use if to add links to favourite YouTube videos that my kid likes to watch every day, my workout videos, daily hangout meetings, etc. Ad Free and very functional.

Nice and easy, even for sop url. For future updates may be considering to select which application will open particularly shortcut. For now works, app it's selected by the system and sop url is opened by sopcast (soptohttp). Well done.

It works! Simple and useful. You can open links from any browser and can customize the icon, at least with the right launcher. Thanks devs, this is exactly what I was looking for!
