What's new in v30.1.3

**I will continue to provide maintenance to launchers quick tile but understand the logic behind it has been deprecated in sdk 33 and above. I also have no plans to fix it. While some of you have moved on and some of you continue to use this tile, I recommend checking out my newest app, Launchers on-tap which is basically the sequel to this experience. Thankyou for your service.** -General Maintenance

Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Notice: As of Android 13, the api that was used to create this experience was deprecated and will no longer do what you expect it to do. As a result, we halted support at that sdk level. From a Cadence, Launchers Quick Tile 2 was recently updated to provide a similar experience but built from the ground up to support the latest android sdk giving you a modern experience. I want to thank the userbase who uses this tile and have made videos along the way. Extracted from Launcher Ops as a solo feature and a huge request by the android community, here is a quick tile that does what it says! The quick tile will be inactive if there are no other launchers installed on your device. The Quick Tile will also update a count of launchers once it refreshes on click or by the system. The tile will launch the android launcher dialog, allowing you to conveniently switch fast anywhere and anytime. Once installed, this app will not appear in your app drawer of your launcher, it will install as a hidden app and can be managed by the android system app settings or by long clicking on the quick tile.
