Home screens cluttered with icons and widgets?

Create your own symbols for your favorite apps, contacts, and websites, and start them up with a gesture onscreen instead of searching through dozens of icons.

Gesture Shortcuts provides one shortcut to replace them all.

We've had a lot of comments about adding a widget where you can draw gestures directly, without having to open the Gesture Shortcuts app. We agree, that would be great! Unfortunately, Android does not currently support this (see the Widget Limitations at http://developer.android.com/design/patterns/widgets.html for why).

If and when the Android OS is updated to support a gesture widget, look for an update from us!
