The app is pretty useful on it's own, but it also adds the option to create a shortcut directly to any folder on the homescreen. To do this, simply long click on the homescreen, choose "Shortcuts", then choose "ASTRO" then choose the particular folder you want a shortcut to. At first look I thought it would create a shortcut to the app, not to a specific folder like it does.
Edit: After reading Keith's comment I realized you are probably talking about market downloads. In that case do what Al Everett said. Then you'll see a long expandable list. You need to find here " Downloads ". Click on it to expand it and then choose second entry - ".
DownloadList ". Just open the marketplace and under menu, you'll find Downloads. I made a few folders on my homescreen of apps, for example one is called Games, one is called Utilities. Then I filled them with the apps I use most. With Ice Cream Sandwich, I have a new app in my app drawer called "Downloads" which brings me to a list of recently downloaded files.

Discussion threads can be closed at any time at our discretion. Jason Cipriani , Ed Rhee. April 18, p. Most Android homescreens are made up of app shortcuts, with maybe a couple widgets thrown in for good measure. Sean Riley. But some of these widgets are actually simple shortcuts, and they're worth adding to your homescreen.
Left : Google Maps Driving Mode. Middle : Now Playing History. Right : Google Sound Search. Another extremely handy "widget" that I personally use every day is the Settings shortcut feature. When you try adding it to your homescreen, you're given several different settings sub-menus to pick from. Once added, it lets you jump into a specific section in settings straight from your homescreen.
My personal favorites among these are:. Right : The hidden notification log. A while ago, the Google Home app added the option to create homescreen shortcuts for any of your Assistant routines. To do it, you need to open your routines in the Home app or in Assistant Settings , pick one, then look for the icon in the top right that looks like a phone with a diagonal arrow.
Now you can have a quick shortcut to trigger your morning, bedtime, or other preset or custom routines. Two tricks let you add homescreen shortcuts to features inside almost any app you use. The first one is the ability to split app launcher shortcuts into their own icons , like I explained above with Assistant Settings. You can do this to get a homescreen shortcut for your apps section in the Play Store , your subscriptions in YouTube, an incognito tab in Chrome, a new event or new reminder in Calendar, and so on.
