When Horizon Client is installed on an Android device, you can add a shortcut for a remote desktop or published application to the Android home screen and then tap the shortcut to open the remote desktop or published application. When Horizon Client is installed on a Chromebook device, Horizon Client adds the remote desktop or published application shortcut to the Chrome App Launcher.
On Android 5, 6, and 7 devices, Horizon Client adds the remote desktop or published application shortcut to the Android home screen.
On Android 8 devices, remote desktop and published application shortcuts appear as entries above the Horizon app icon when you touch and hold the app icon. You can drag an entry from the app icon to the Android home screen to create a shortcut directly on the Android home screen.
This feature is not available on Amazon devices, on Android devices that Workspace ONE UEM manages, or when you use the Unauthenticated Access feature to connect to the server anonymously.
