Wait what? My browser doesn’t seem to have a shortcut to bookmarks. I mean i am sure i can use activity launcher to find a shortcut to get to the homepage probably but i am not quite sure which activity it is and if there is a customizable one. Maxthon browser btw. Just want to be able to click an icon and have it pop up to a certain site.

I worked around it by using tasker and setting up a task to open a URL. You can typically use tasker to open an app then pass the url as the data field.

It is a pity that you need Tasker to start a Bookmark shortcut.

I only use MacroDroid atm. I’m not well versed enough to use tasker yet. I have downloaded some tutorials for it, however.

In Chrome, while on the page you want, you can open the browser menu and there is a selection: Add To Desktop.
It does indeed place an icon to that page on your desktop. Maybe your browser has something similar?

i found an app in the playstore called url shortcut. its pretty simple but i think with macrodroid i can turn the shortcut into a widget and put it on appsii sidebar. little more complicated than id like but hey whatever works

If your cool with running scripts give this one a try.
LL.bindClass(“android.content.Intent”);
LL.bindClass(“android.content.ActivityNotFoundException”);
// replace this url with yours
var url = “https://www.google.co.uk/“;
var package = “com.mx.browser”;
var mctx = LL.getContext();
var intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse(url)); intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); intent.setPackage(package);
try{
mctx.startActivity(intent);
}catch(exception){
alert(exception);
}

Here’s a quick how to since you never used them before.
Copy my code to clipboard then In your app drawer open script editor paste my code slide out the navigation drawer and give the script a name, exit the script editor then long press desktop press + button press shorcut choose lightning action choose run a script pick the script i wrote^ and it should work I think expert mode needs to be enabled to run scripts and you need to allow scripts to be run.
