AutoShortcut
(WARNING: YOU MUST HAVE TASKER OR LOCALE INSTALLED FOR THIS APP TO BE OF ANY USE: AutoShortcut will not show up on your homescreen or app drawer. It is only usable as a plugin in Tasker or Locale.)
AutoShortcut is a plugin for Tasker or Locale that allows you to run any of your installed apps' shortcuts.
Usage examples:
- Play Winamp playlist automatically when you connect your headphones at home
- Open specific Google Play book when you go to bed at night
- Create a new note in Evernote when you're in a team meeting
- By exporting a standalone app in Tasker which contains an AutoShortcut task, you can use your own shortcuts in apps or lockscreens that don't support them, like the stock lockscreen in the Galaxy S3 for example. See a tutorial here: http://goo.gl/9Ug6R
Note: only shortcuts that have been developed using standard Android shortcut creating protocol will show up and/or work. If a shortcut doesn't work, contact that app's vendor.
- Permission to call phone is needed, so you can add a "Call person directly" shortcut in Tasker or Locale
- Permission for Internet is needed ONLY for splashscreen showing my other apps. Get the Pro version if you want this to go away and to support the developer.

Good app. Does what it should. Would like to see it updated for new Google Assistant routine shortcuts.
I had intenttask & autoshortcut. I choose to keep intenttask. This is rational choice & not biased. Figured out why i choose to keep intenttask.
Mimics what you can do with Secure Settings. But both missing YT music shortcuts
Couldn't seem to find any of the app shortcuts I use on a regular basis
Why removed from store the pro version already purchased.
useful to here
I am a heavy user of Tasker, and these plug-in helps me very much. I can do almost anything that I ever imagined on my phone, thanks to these plug-ins. My money was well spent. Kudos!
every update breaks my tasker script.
Would like to launch any Autoinput action using only 1-2 touches from any screen. Navigation bar AutoInput shortcut?. Also, Eye Tribe eye-tracking integration for "select-what-I'm-looking-at" navigation bar button to activate AutoInput action (also useful for external keyboard + vertical touchscreen). Thanks.
...and do very deserving the purchase!
Does exactly what it proposes to do
Unfortunately, doesn't work with all the app shortcuts I want (ex. OneNote), but I understand that's because those developers didn't use standard Android shortcut creating protocol. But nevertheless an *indispensable* Plugin.
Had multiple apps I wanted to automate with this but none of their shortcuts seem compatible. I select their shortcuts from the drop down but then I am taken to the ads and pressing 'ok' takes me back to the Tasker screen without anything having been accomplished.
Does just what it says, I use it with Jet Audio to automatically play a playlist at night while going to sleep.
Awesome useful plugin for apps that don't natively provide the ability to access shortcuts to thier functions.

Autocontinuous disables the system volume until I force stop it, and doesn't work in Android 4.1.2. Other than that, handy!
And can be used to give Tasker even more potential.
Fantastic, just what I was looking for.
It just keeps on duplicating the Clean Master's "1tapboost" Please fix.
Just what my Tasker needed
Cant get any better than this
Small and helpful app
Does what it says
Took me a while to figure out what was going on. Like the doc says it only works with apps that implement the Android standard shortcut protocol. Which turns out to be about 10% of my apps. So it isn't really very useful. But I can't blame the developer for that
Doesn't work for some apps like unified remote, but I understand that's that apps fault, not this one.
Two stars for taking autoshortcut pro off the store. Which makes me have to pay you again in order to unlock this app. Although it's only $.99, I still feel cheated because I need to pay it again.
