Not App

One icon, many shortcuts — a customizable command center for your home screen.
New in version 0.6.8
* Not App Droid: no "Rate app" and no rating card (open stores have no ratings), nothing points to Google Play
* The floating button stays off once it is switched off or dropped on the ✕
Not App turns your home screen icon into a customizable command center instead
of cluttering it with dozens of separate app shortcuts. Configure it once,
tap it endlessly.

Choose your interaction style:

LIST mode (default): tapping the icon opens your full shortcut list in a
bottom sheet. Long-press for direct OS shortcuts to individual items.

DIRECT mode: tapping the icon launches your primary shortcut instantly, no
UI, no delay. Long-press for shortcuts to your backups and alternatives,
managed by the OS.

MIX mode: tapping the icon launches your primary shortcut instantly, same as
DIRECT — but your full shortcut list also opens on top of it, so the rest of
your items stay one tap away. Long-press still works too. Swipe the list
away and it collapses into a small floating button instead of closing, so
you can bring it back with one tap — drag it onto the on-screen trash target
to remove it for good.

Features:
* Unlimited shortcuts: app launches, URLs, and custom intents
* Three interaction modes: LIST for exploration, DIRECT for speed, MIX for
both at once
* Drag-to-reorder your shortcuts
* Customizable icons: emoji badges, colored labels, or the original app
icons
* An optional floating peek button that keeps your list one tap away in
LIST/MIX mode
* An optional row of recently-used apps at the top of the list
* 8 launcher icon styles to choose from in Settings
* Pin any single shortcut as its own standalone home-screen icon
* Smart sharing: share text directly to your shortcuts, with {{word}}
placeholders in URLs to insert the shared content
* Import/export your entire configuration as JSON
* Syncs with Android App Shortcuts for long-press menu support

Not App has no analytics, no crash reporting, no ad SDKs, and no telemetry
of any kind. It collects, transmits, and shares nothing — everything you
configure stays on your device.
