About Activity Launcher

Reviewed byBernadine WisokyContent Editor

Activity Launcher is an Android utility app that opens internal app screens and creates direct home screen shortcuts.

Activity Launcher helps users who regularly dig through long menus to reach a setting, tool, or screen inside an installed app. It is aimed at people who want quicker access to places that are normally buried in app or system menus. For example, users can set up direct routes for settings they use often instead of repeating the same navigation each time. Before you download Activity Launcher, it is useful to know that available entries can differ between devices and apps.


Activity Launcher features

Browse activities in installed apps

Activity Launcher scans installed apps and displays their available activities in a readable list. An activity is usually a specific screen or function within an app, such as a settings page or tool. This lets you look beyond the main app icon and find screens that are not always shown in normal menus.

Open hard to reach screens

You can select an activity and try opening it directly from the list. This can be useful for reaching deeply nested system panels or app settings without going through several pages first. However, some hidden activities may be restricted by Android or by the app that contains them.

Create home screen shortcuts

Activity Launcher can create a home screen shortcut for a chosen activity. You can use these app shortcuts for settings pages, internal tools, or other screens you need repeatedly. Once placed by your device launcher, the shortcut opens the selected destination with one tap.

Search, favorites, and recent entries

You can search by app name or screen name when the activity list is long. Activity Launcher also lets you pin favorites and review recently opened entries, which helps when you return to the same destinations. As a result, commonly used screens are easier to locate without searching again.

Share shortcut links

You can share shortcut links with other users when several people need access to the same settings page or app screen. This can help a team standardize access to a particular internal destination. The receiving device must still have the relevant app and activity available for the link to work.


Home screen shortcut placement

If a new shortcut icon does not appear, check whether your device allows Activity Launcher to add home screen shortcuts. Some launchers ask for permission before placing an icon, while others place it on another home screen page. You can also check the launcher settings and available home screen space before creating the shortcut again.


Open source project and edition options

Activity Launcher is an open source, community driven project with source code and translations available through its project resources. Users who prefer an edition without ads can also consider the optional Activity Launcher Pro version. These options do not change the fact that activity availability depends on the installed apps and Android software on the phone.


How to use Activity Launcher on Android

After installing the Activity Launcher APK, open the app and allow it to load the activities available on your phone. Start with a screen you already know, then create a shortcut only after confirming that it opens correctly. This approach helps avoid keeping shortcuts that lead to unavailable pages.

  1. Open Activity Launcher and wait for the list of installed apps to appear.

  2. Use the search field or browse an app’s entries to find the screen you want to open.

  3. Tap an activity to test it first, then return if the screen does not load or shows an error.

  4. When the activity works, choose the shortcut option and confirm its placement on the home screen.

  5. Open the new icon from your launcher, then pin the activity as a favorite if you expect to use it again.


Get started with Activity Launcher

Activity Launcher is useful when you need direct access to available internal app screens and repeatable home screen shortcuts. Check Activity Launcher latest version details before installation, then test each selected activity on your own device.
