Access your favorite content directly from Niagara Launcher

What are shortcuts?

Simply put: timesavers. They help you accessing content like specific websites or chats quicker — directly from Niagara Launcher.

What makes them special in Niagara Launcher: shortcuts behave just like apps. They appear in the app list, you can add them as favorites, change their appearance, all that stuff.

Shortcuts were added in v0.11.0. If this version is not on Google Play (ETA: Dec 29) yet, download it from here:
