## What it is
A free, open-source Android app for creating home screen shortcuts and widgets that trigger arbitrary HTTP requests when tapped, with response display options and JavaScript scripting. It also supports non-HTTP actions and integrates with automation apps like Tasker and MacroDroid.

## Use cases
- trigger smart home devices from my android home screen
- create one-tap buttons that send http requests
- run api calls from my phone without opening a terminal
- integrate http triggers with tasker automations
- import curl commands as phone shortcuts
- control home automation endpoints from a widget

## When to choose
- you want one-tap HTTP request buttons on Android
- you need home automation triggers from your phone
- you want scripting, variables, and response handling for requests
- you prefer a free, ad-free, open-source tool

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose REST API client with full response inspection
- you are not on Android
- you need scheduled/background-only requests rather than user-triggered actions
