Website Shortcuts

In latest Android versions, system only provides details of default browser. That is why the app don’t know that other browsers exist to launch that particular shortcut. I am planning to explicitly provide list of popular browsers to select. Feel free to contact for any browser addition to the list. Meanwhile, you can create shortcut to different browser by following this guide.
