Create rom shortcut and pin the rom on the launcher

Open shabbirmahmud opened this issue 3 years ago • 10 comments

1-It will be great if I can open the rom directly from the phone launcher.

2-It will also be good if I can pin my favorite games on the top of the emulator launcher.

  1. This is already implemented 😅 You just need to long press on your home screen, select Widgets, search for melonDS and the ROM Shortcut option should be available.
  2. You can already sort by recently played. It's the same as favourites but it might me close enough. I will consider this anyway.

No. Leave it open. Some of the other issues you opened were also already in my TODO list but this gives visibility to other users

Regarding point 2, what are your suggestions? Adding a star to mark ROMs as favourites and a sorting order to put favourite ROMs at the top? Or display favourite ROMs in a separate list? Neither of these options seem perfect to me so you can also suggest other alternatives.

I was saying that if i pin any rom it will never move even i use other roms.Like this-

I will recommend the last used rom will come top and it will be bottom of the pin rom if i pin any rom.I think don't need to create a seperate favorite list.Star mark or ❣️ mark will do.

You can also add rom sort like this-

You can use 'Recent and All' tabs rather than using last rom will come top like this-
