Did you know that, without rooting your phone or doing any further steps, you can quickly change the look and behaviour of the Quick Settings panel on your Android phone?
There's not much else you can do with an Android phone, despite the fact that you can natively edit the Quick Settings screen and alter the icons. Thankfully, you can do more with the Quick Settings window thanks to tools like Tile Shortcuts.
To rapidly start an app, for example, swipe down from the top of the screen, you can easily add an app shortcut to the Quick Settings panel. This is how:
How to Update the Android Quick Settings Panel to Add App Shortcuts
Using the free Tile Shortcuts software from the Play Store, we'll be able to add app shortcuts to the Android Quick Settings panel. Here's how to configure it so that shortcuts to your most-used apps are created.
On your Android phone, open the Tile Shortcuts app.
In the area for Inactive tiles, click the + button.
Tap App under Tile Type.
Choose a programme from the provided selection. This name can be changed, but pay attention to it. Tile 1 is the title by default.
To further modify your app shortcut, click the Advanced Edit button.
In order to access the Quick Settings panel on your Android phone, swipe down from the top of the screen.
Depending on the manufacturer of your phone, scroll to the right and touch Edit or the pencil icon.
Tap and hold the freshly made tile (like Tile 1, in this case)
Drag it to the top of your screen's active area.
Click Done.
When you press on the new shortcut on your phone's Quick Settings panel the following time, the app will open. You can make as many shortcuts to your favourite apps as you like, giving you rapid access to the ones you use the most. It's perfect for apps like a calculator or a two-factor authentication tool that you frequently need to use fast in the background.
For Samsung Galaxy phones, follow these instructions to personalise the Quick Settings screen.
Create a shortcut for your own app in the Android Quick Settings Panel.
Although the Android Quick Settings panel is frequently disregarded, there are more things you can do with it than you may realise. You can add programme shortcuts as well as change the Quick Settings panel's icons to suit your preferences.
You may use the Quick Settings panel to quickly access your preferred apps from any screen, whether it be Asana, YouTube, or Gmail. This will cut down on navigation time. Simply swipe down to complete the action.
