Commands Launcher is a small application that lets you define commands (more precisely shortcuts) that can be used in a widget (homescreen or/and lockscreen).

The purpose of this application is to speed up the actions that you perform most often whyle using your smartphone (like calling a phone number, go to a website etc).

You can already put shortcuts in the homescreen thanks to launcher apps, but with this app you can manage them better and also saving them, allowing you to restoring them easily (if you change launcher app for example).

WIDGETS:

-Homescreen widget with a list of the commands defined (better than folders, it has an unlimited capacity and helps in saving space)

-Lockscreen widget [only from Android 4.2] that allows you to run commands directly from the lockscreen, without unlocking the device (note that this obviously won't work if you have a pin /password security for the lockscreen)

APP FEATURES:

-homescreen and lockscreen widgets

-three different text sizes for widgets (small, medium, big)

-side scrolling menù for helping app's navigation

-view of commands defined in a list

-backup and restore your commands in and from sd card

-three themes: light, dark, black (black is useful for amoled users, it will displays better and will save battery)

-four different transitions types between app's page 

NEXT UPDATES:

-Italian translation (I'm italian but I first made this app in English. I'll add italian translation when I'll have some free time)

-Possibility to launch any app (not only shortcuts)

NOTE:

 This is my first real app (I done only CyanogenMod themes before) and I developed it mostly for learning something about Android programming. I'm not expert and this app is very simple. Keep in mind that I'm an university student and I won't have much time for updating this app. I also have to mantain my CyanogenMod themes. By the way feel free to contact me for anything.

PERMISSIONS:

-call phone: needed for adding commands like calling a number

-write and read external storage: needed for creating the file for the backup of the commands list

-internet and access network state: needed for the little advertising banner at the bottom of the app
