Abyone knows if theres a way to open an app in pop up view directly without using ui interactions on samsung devices? (S23Ultra to specify)

How about creating a LAUNCH SET in Popup Factory 2, turning on LAUNCHER MODE, and using Shortcut Maker to find the Popup Factory 2 activity and send intent?

Yeah, that works. I can also use launch app action since in launcher mode on it will open chosen app in pop up view.
I downloaded shortcut maker as well and had a look in there but I don't think I can use the info I found there to launch chosen launch set, can I? (I might be too stupid 😃) I see only one activity that opens app.
I mean - to open for exemple two different apps in pop up view.
I'd appreciate it if you corrected me if I am wrong.
Thanks in advance!

I do not think you can specify a launcher set.
I think it is possible to open in popup view at the same time because a launcher set can register multiple applications.

Yeah, you are right - few apps can be added to one set. Thanks
Thats more than enough honestly 🙂
Being able to choose the position of opened app is sweet, I wonder if it would be hard to implement in macrodroid directly. I tend to limit the amount of apps I have on my main phone

Another solution I found that might be useful too is using one hand operation app. Its samsung app that I can't imagine living without.
I created another handle in left top part of the screen, set it up to open app in pop up view based on my needs and macro performs ui interaction - gesture to open app. The handle is always there no matter what app is opened so it will always work
Advantage of pop up factory is that it can open multiple apps instantly and at chosen position so I am guessing I'll be using both ways
