Adding configurable buttons to the toolbar

I had an interesting experience today and that got me thinking.. why not do more with the toolbar. As you may know, the toolbar in the launcher currently has The "clear input", "previous command", "next command", "paste" and the app drawer icon.

With the next release, you can configure 2 more buttons to live in the toolbar. completely your choice.

The buttons will allow you to store 2 of your most used commands or aliases or shortcuts so you dont have to type them out each time.

The buttons will use the same pipeline as the input box, just another surface for you to host your most common commands.

the choice for 2 buttons is deliberate and is not something I am willing to change. its a nice compromise between function and the overall ethos of the launcher

Re:TUI Now supports work profile apps

New Re:T-UI GitHub test build is live. The same build will be pushed to Playstore later

This build fixes work profile app discovery. Work profile apps should now appear in app suggestions and the app drawer, with a "(Work)" suffix when there is a matching personal app.

Important for current GitHub/test users: app identity now includes the Android profile. After updating, please recreate any hidden apps, app groups, or default app suggestion slots. This reset is intentional while the app is still in testing so we do not carry old compatibility code into the public release.

Please test:

  1. Work profile apps appear in suggestions when typing an app name.

  2. Work profile apps appear in the app drawer.

  3. Tapping a "(Work)" app launches the work-profile copy.

Re:T-UI Webpage is live with free Github download!

As I had mentioned before! The soul of the original project was an open sourced CLI based launcher that used to love and adore. The Launcher had given me some good memories and it is now my turn to give it back.

>The website has 2 download path, Playstore and Github.

If you just want to try the app for free and be part of the discussion please feel free to use the Github apk and Github Issues to report any bugs.

The playstore release is for those who love the app and what I have done with it and want to support me.

why two APKs, maintenance and long term plan for the projects. The backup and restore feature will allow you to transition from github version to playstore version without loosing anything at all!

The webpage is to serve as the main hub for the application. Give you answers to common issues as well as tips and tricks to use with the application.

Eventually sharable presets and preset showcase are planned for future so you can share your favourite presets with the world.

>AI Disclaimer:

This is a passion project I started because I was learning to code and AI agents now make it a breeze to review and fix codes. Is this vibe coded? Not entirely but I will admit as a beginner a lot of the code snippets are reviewed by AI agents but I manually type and compile them and review errors myself and try to fix them myself as best as I can. Is this the best way to learn to code no but I still learnt :)
