iOS 8 Widget Customisations using Launcher

[Traverse]

I use Launcher to to activate specific workflows from the the Workflow app.

----------

Well, got my Workflow stuff in it. I had to make a Workflow to crop the icons to put them in Launcher.

This is what made Launcher worth it to me. I got so excited when I saw that I could launch specific workflows via NC! It really simplifies the process.

For example, there's a specific message that I send all the time. I set up a workflow that automatically generates the text message to the contact specific with the text specific so that all I have to do is tap "Send." Saves hassle.

How did you get the icons? Did you save your workflows to the home screen with customer icons and launch those apps with Launcher? I've been launching specific workflows that are jus within the Workflow app itself.

I took screenshots of the icon setup page where you select the color and glyphs, and then ran them through the crop workflow I made.

Works decent enough for me.

Oh, sorry! You put that in your OP. Don't know how I missed that. Aw well. Everyone has those moments.

Thanks for posting that. I need to adjust it for iPhone 6, but it works. These apps are really starting to make iOS powerful!

It's just making it harder to decide between another iPad or the new MB.

You know, you can also get he icon by opening the link in Safari as if you were going to save it to your homepage and then press and hold on the icon and choose save image.

Like in my screenshot.

Oh, really?! Just tried it now, and that's a lot better. Thanks!

Does anyone know a link that I could put into Launcher that would take me straight to Safari's saved passwords page in the Settings App? I see that I can link to Safari preferences, which is a big help as it is, but that would be the bee's knees if it would take me that one more step!

Any shortcut for disabling 3G?

How do you have a workflow that sends text with specific wordings?

Hi iamPro, this thread is probably best.

These are images to help explain how to get it into NC. Select "Run Workflow" and type in the Workflow name exactly as you had it in the Workflow app.

Since my message workflow uses predefined text that I manually put in the workflow app I do NOT use the "Run a Workflow with Clipboard input" option."

Scanbot: scanbot://camera
Day One: dayone://post
1Password: onepassword://search/apple
Clear: clearapp://list/create?listName=Shopping
Radium: radium://stationlink Copy station link, open it in Safari, then hold "Open in Radium", then copy that.

If you have Launch Center Pro, it's a good way to find the schemes of everything you have on your device. x-callback isn't supported here, and neither is anything that has a {{ blah }} or spaces in it. So you have to find a way around it.

Jessica are you saying that Launch Center Pro identifies all of the URL schemes of apps you have installed? So I could use Launch Center Pro to get the URL scheme of an app that isn't included in Launcher, and then create a custom launcher?

It doesn't identify them, but it has a repo of most of them, and it's regularly updated with new releases. Launcher might catch up, but i don't know.

But yeah, you can basically do that. It'll give you the URL after you fill the info out.

Cool, thanks. I guess there's no way to access that repository without paying $5?

And how have you identified the actions within the app? For example, such as the "post" in:

dayone://post

Is that in Launch Center Pro also?

No. But some apps will have it listed in their support pages on their websites.

I didn't identify it, that's just how that app has it setup. Here's all of Day One's URLs: https://dayone.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/200145805-Day-One-URL-scheme

But yeah, Launch Center Pro will basically give you fields to setup, and then do the dirty work. The new version of Launcher is doing this too for the apps it supports. It's not something that can be automated though.

Hi, please help me
Write a URL to access the section Cellular -> Voice & Data (2G / 3G / LTE)

For example, the URL to access the section Cellular -> Personal Hotspot
prefs:root=MOBILE_DATA_SETTINGS_ID&path=INTERNET_TETHERING

And what URL to use for the section Voice & Data?

Sorry bad english

 

[gaanee]

For Data Settings:
prefs:root=MOBILE_DATA_SETTINGS_ID

Isn't that basically in control center?

Yep, but I don't have Control center active when my iPhone is locked, so I want it in Launcher

----------

No because probably he doesn't have control center in lock screen like me... if you use it in lock screen a thief can easily deactivate 3g by putting in airplane mode... if you use touch id ( especially with more then 4 digit number code) and then control center is much more safer... Apple should definitely allow customization in control center... Correct me if I'm wrong



So flashlight URL please and Hotspot on or off please ( I already have hotspot URL in use)
Thank you

10 points for you

I suppose that using a torch app on lock screen would probably not be possible ( I think you have to unlock the device)
A workaround is a torchlight widget...

Is there a way to create a custom launch to the "usage" page under settings? If so could someone please post the URL? Thanks in advance.

 

[gaanee]

For Data Settings:
prefs:root=MOBILE_DATA_SETTINGS_ID

These URL schemes for accessing Settings app content (Wifi, Cellular data...) work from the widget in notification center but not from the Launcher app where you create it... anyone knows why?

 

[Beefburga]

Is there a way to create a custom launch to the "usage" page under settings? If so could someone please post the URL? Thanks in advance.

Use this:

prefs:root=General&path=USAGE/BATTERY_USAGE

I just downloaded the Launcher widget and immidiately bought the in-app purchase to get Pro. It's so great and works fantastic.

mobilenotes://add works great on my iPad mini2 running iOS 8.2 with Quick-tap but doesn't seem to work with Launcher for some reason unfortunately. It only opens the Notes app.

I am looking for Nike Fuelband URL. I could not find it in the links. Does anyone know how to get it?

 

[Fynd]

Anyone know if myfitnesspal has a scheme setup, and if you can access the bar code scanner from it? That would be a huge time saver.
