QuickClick Customizes Volume Button Actions, No Root Required

Published on: 6:45 PM

Android: With touch screen smartphones, volume buttons are among the few physical keys you can press. QuickClick makes it easy to put them to use for more than volume control.

For example, say you want to take a photo with your camera quickly. You can set it so that if you hit the Volume Up button thrice, it'll automatically take a photo (with a preset choice to use autofocus or not) and save it to a predetermined location.

QuickClick offers flashlight, photo, video, dictaphone, call shortcut, message shortcut, sound, configuration, app shortcut, and the ability to set a Tasker action for more automation. Each of these options has more choices, after which you need to select a sequence of clicking the volume buttons, such as Up, Up, Down, Down. And that's it. You can review or delete any of the actions at any time. And yes, it can be activated even if your screen is locked.

AppChooser Cleans and Customizes Android's "Share" Menu

Published on: 11:03 AM

Android's universal share menu is awesome, but it can get really cluttered really quickly. AppChooser lets you customize and clean up the share menu to your heart's desire.

After installing AppChooser, the next time you click that Share button, you'll get the option to use AppChooser or the Android System. Choose AppChooser. You'll get a very similar-looking share list, only you can reorder the items by frequency, history, or reverse alphabetical. You can also long-press on any app to hide it for good. You can even share to multiple apps by pressing the arrow in the top-right corner.

Note that some apps have their own Share menu separate from Android's, so AppChooser can't replace those—however, it'll show up as an option in those lists (often at the top), so on those occasions you can usually tap it for quick access to your shorter, custom list.

Overall, AppChooser is extremely simple to use, and a great replacement for the default Share menu when it gets out of control. It's very similar to the older and slightly less powerful Andmade Share, which we've featured before. Hit the link below to give it a try.
