Quick actions plugin allows us to manage and interact with the application’s home screen. Android and IOS both have their specific ways to implement these shortcuts. In Android, the term used is App Shortcut whereas IOS calls it Home Screen Quick Actions. To achieve this feature, flutter provides the quick_actions plugin.
This refers to the eponymous concept on iOS and to the App Shortcuts APIs on Android (introduced in Android 7.1 / API level 25).
