Android 8.0 Oreo Shortcuts

Post by natewin » Tue Oct 24, 2017 11:27 am

I can't seem to create shortcuts for OpenVPN after upgrading to Android 8 Oreo.
Is there some other way to create shortcuts?

This should be working with the latest build. Please, let us know if this is not the case.

Could you please open another thread about this and post some more information about what you see? (i.e. Do you get an error or a crash)
Thanks
