About Launch Center Pro - Icon Maker

Speed up everyday tasks with simple shortcuts. It’s like speed dial for apps.

Launch Center Pro saves you time by launching complex actions in a single tap.

Message a loved one, search Yelp for the nearest coffee shop, jump straight to the camera in Instagram, all with just a flick of your thumb. Create shortcuts for email, Safari, Twitter, Facebook, phone or FaceTime calls, Google searches, and more. If you do it on your iPhone constantly, Launch Center Pro will make it easier and faster.

“Launch Center Pro is an app of verbs. Search. Shoot. Call. Text. Add... With a simple tap-and-slide, you can launch apps, perform actions and more... It's so simple and fast that before long your muscle memory takes over and you don't even have to look. ” —Dave Caolo - TUAW

“Perhaps the highest praise I can give Launch Center Pro is that it finally kicked Safari out of my dock...” —Lex Friedman - Macworld

Sample shortcuts:

- Call a loved one
- Message a GIF to a friend
- Take a photo and message it to a group
- Email your boss a report from Dropbox
- Quickly search Wikipedia
- Scan a barcode and search on Amazon
- Jump right to your favorite website
- Create a new item in OmniFocus
- Search Twitter using Tweetbot
- And so much more...

Launch Center Pro now works with over 100k apps!

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Launch Center Pro is run in the background for just a few seconds when entering or leaving an iBeacon region or geofence. If you use iBeacons or geofences and are concerned about battery life, keep an eye on the new Battery Usage section of the Settings app.

3.0.3

Feb 25, 2019

Features:
- Schedule actions via URL schemes (examples below)
- Add to Siri is now available to all users for free
- Redesigned subscription page to make purchase options more clear
- iPhone 7, 8, and X can now scan NFC tags using launch://nfc

Bug fixes:
- Location Triggers view now scrolls properly on iPhone X when setting the time for "Suppress duplicates"
- Reduced (hopefully eliminated) the number of times the App Store login is displayed
- Tapping the Notification Sounds row on iPad now opens the correct view (instead of opening the NFC Triggers view, which should not be available on iPad)
- Actions imported from Shortcuts now function as expected (some imported actions couldn't be triggered from the widget in 3.0.2)
- Messaging actions now remove extra commas to prevent "Buddy Name" from being displayed as a recipient
- Widget settings are now backed up
- Fixed several crashing bugs

Scheduling Examples:
launch://schedule?action=179&in=1h&repeat=specificdays&days=m,tu,w,th,f (Schedules an action notification in 1 hour, tapping the notification triggers action 179, then repeats this schedule on weekdays)

launch://schedule?action=104&in=[prompt-num:Minutes Until Notification]m (Prompts for the number of minutes, then schedules an action notification in 10 minutes, tapping the notification triggers action 104)

launch://schedule?url=https://apple.com&in=10min (Schedules an action notification in 10 minutes, tapping the notification opens apple.com)

Parameters:
action = Action Id
url = Any valid URL
at = Absolute ISO8601 date (plus it should detect a bunch of common formats)
in = Relative date in seconds, minutes, or hours from now (60s, 60m, 1h, or even 1h30m30s)
repeat = hourly or weekly or monthly or specificdays (aliases 'specific-days', 'days')
days = (only used for repeat=specificdays) accepts the actual days to repeat the schedule, pretty flexible, "su,m,tuesday-wed,th,f,sat" works as expected.

And of course, you can use Shortcuts to build these URLs based on time calculated from a Shortcut. On help.contrast.co we have several example Shortcuts, including one that gets the next event on your calendar, estimates your ETA, then schedules an action to trigger when you're estimated to arrive (you could also schedule it a few minutes early so that the notification is ready and waiting when you arrive), and finally displays directions to that event in Maps.

Visit help.contrast.co for more examples and detailed docs.

3.0.2

Dec 20, 2018

***So sorry for the hassle, this version fixes the bug causing purchases to not properly unlock features, as well as a couple of other minor bugs.***

Launch Center Pro 3.0 is a huge update and lays the foundation for the future of the app. In addition to the features listed below, we’ve made significant performance improvements (kind of important for a launcher app!) and modernized much of the code to provide a solid foundation for all the cool stuff we have in the works.

New in 3.0:
• NFC Triggers: iPhone XR, XS, and XS Max can now trigger actions via custom NFC stickers! iPhone 7 and newer can use in-app NFC scanning.
• Themes: We created a brand new “True Black” theme that looks gorgeous on OLED iPhones (and also looks nice on LCD iPhones)
• Advanced scheduling: You can now assign multiple schedules to a single action
• Add to Siri: Turn actions into Siri Shortcuts and trigger them with your voice
• Alternate App Icons: choose from several color variations and all past Launch Center Pro app icons
• Icon import from the Shortcuts app
• Support for iPhone XR, XS, and XS Max screen sizes
• Launch Center Pro for iPad has been retired, the iPhone version now supports both iPhone and iPad
• Bug fixes and additional enhancements

With 3.0 we’re also making Launch Center Pro free to use, with a subscription or one-time purchase to unlock all features. If you’ve paid for Launch Center Pro in the past, you get to keep using all the features you paid for without a subscription. You also get several new features and all the bug fixes, speed improvements, and other enhancements we’ve been working on for months. You only need to pay if you want to access the new features added in 3.0. That said, we have lots planned for the app, and would certainly appreciate your support to achieve those goals. We went out of our way to make this transition as fair as possible for users who have previously paid.
