Contextium

Configurable Android context menu helper
New in version 1.5.0

  • Implement %s as a placeholder.

  • Removes the need for a parameter name.

Contextium extends Android's native text-selection context menu with configurable actions for web searches.

Select text in an app, choose Contextium, and open the selected text with one of your configured search URLs.

Features

  • Add unlimited context-menu items.

  • Configure a name, label, target URL, and URL parameter for each item.

  • Reorder entries with drag and drop.

  • Enable or disable entries individually.

  • Export and import your configuration as a backup.



How it works

  • Add a menu entry.

  • Configure its name, URL, and parameter.

  • Select text and choose Contextium.

  • Choose an action to start the web search.



The target website must support search terms passed as a URL parameter.

For example, use https://www.google.com/search with the parameter q. Contextium then creates a URL such as https://www.google.com/search?q=foobar.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
