Addind the AppIntent
of my app as AppShortcuts
to the Shortcuts Apps was easy. This only required an AppShortcutsProvider
. However, I am confused how the AppShortcuts are shown in the Shortcuts App. It seems that there are different styles as one can see on this picture.
- The
AppShortcuts
of some apps are shown as tiles - While shortcuts from other apps are shown as collection as circle icons
- Some "circle collection" use a default gray background with blue icons
- Others color or even gradient backgrounds with white icons
The only thing I found that might be related to the design is the shortcutTileColor
property in the AppShortcutsProvider
. However using/changing this property has no effect on how my app's shortcus are shown: On the default gray background / blue icon.
Among the different apps on my devices I cannot see any logic which shortcuts are shown as tiles and which as circle icons. Additionally third party apps use colored background (s. Gola for example on the screenshot) or gradients. So there there has to be a way to change this. But how?
