I create a pinned shortcut for my app using:

mShortcutManager.requestPinShortcut(mShortcutInfo, null);

as mentioned here.

My problem is that I have a '1x1' label in the system dialog box displayed by Android as shown below:

enter image description here

My question is : how to remove this '1x1' label ? (I have also no idea what it means...)

Thanks.

  • Not sure if you can remove it. I believe 1 x 1 is simply the space it will take. Like your home screen is a grid, for example 4 x 6. Icons take up 1 x 1 but some widgets take a larger space. – Ivo Oct 14 '22 at 08:49
  • To be clear, this label is *not* part of the shortcut that will show up in the launcher. – 0x5453 Oct 14 '22 at 12:44

What is that "1 X 1"

"1 x 1" is just like the ratio of space it will take. All the app icons take up a space of 1x1. It can also be taken as the ratio or height and width. 1x1 = 1:1(here). This will mean that height is equal to width and thus, the space taken will be in the shape of a square.

How can we remove it?

This label can NOT be removed as it is a part of the OS which helps the user know how much space it will take. There is NO way it can be removed.

Hope you were answered
