How to run an App specific Shortcut

Hi There,

I am kinda new here.

I am trying to know if there's any way to run a specific app shortcut in Macrodroid.

Certain Apps create additional Shortcuts in Homescree.

For example, a Cleaner app, If you open the main app it lets you clear everything like Junk, Memory, Recent App etc.
But additionally it created 2 separate shortcuts for cleaning Memory, and Junk separately on user's choice.
So in the home screen if I tap Memory Icon, it cleans only memory, and I don't need to open the main interface/app for that.

In Macrodroid, if I choose Launch Application, it shows only the main app, not those extra 2 shortcuts, that I can launch!
And in Launch Shortcut nothing shows!

How to workout for such scenarios?

Thanks for the response. So basically, Macrodroid doesn't do the job standalone, it requires extra app support for this purpose...

Sort of. MacroDroid has a launch shortcut action of it's own but not all apps have shortcuts. Some apP's may also work as plugins, check the plugins action in MacroDroid. To get deeper access to apps, the shortcut tutorial above gives you the best results.
