Persistent Shortcuts APK Download for Android

Description

Persistent Shortcuts creates homescreen shortcuts that persist across app uninstalls and installs. Constantly switching between different builds of the same app on your device? Put one persistent shortcut to a single app on your homescreen and never worry again. If you click on a shortcut for an app that was uninstalled, you'll be redirected to the Play Store to re-download the app.

To use, simply go to your launcher's Widgets section and look for the "New shortcut" widget to place on your homescreen.

Additionally, on devices running Android 7.0+ with freeform mode enabled, Persistent Shortcuts can optionally launch apps into freeform windows using your existing launcher.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

5 ★Thank you for the free apps! Are you still maintaining this app? I'm a fan of the freeform feature. I'm using it on squarehome launcher (win 8 start screen like). The problem though when the launcher restart, the shortcut no longer open in window mode, it starts on fullscreen, I tried on lawnchair launcher with the same result. Will be happy if you have the time to look at it. Thanks!

1 ★cant seem to figure it out. no instructions at all.

5 ★Greetings, Mr Farmer. Great unique and very practical creation. Thanks. Two questions. I see a picture of some sort of interface where you can pick more than 1 app to work with but I don't get that on my phone. Even here in the appstore I don't get the option to Open it. Only Uninstall is available and on my phone it only exists as a widget. I have a Samsung S6 edge with an Android 7 installed. Help so I don't have to go through each app separately if I don't have to. What happens if your app gets temporarily uninstalled. Does all your persistent shortcuts disappear with it? I have more than 200 apps of which at least half would be eligible to be shortcuted the peristent way :) Thanks and really great idea!

5 ★Two requests: (1)Can you rename the widget so it shows up higher on the list? Maybe put an "A" or "1" as the 1st letter in the name. (1New shortcut) or (A New shortcut). (2)can you make the shortcuts backup to Google drive to keep from losing anything during phone swaps/upgrades...? ********************************************** It's simple and it works. I like it.

5 ★The best all around app. This app is so great not only because there are no ads , but because you can create any shortcut just like many other apps however this app allows you to set full screen, half screen or the position when opening. From one developer to another, great job.

5 ★🔂 Works perfectly on CM13
