# Add Honeydew to your shortcuts (Android)

Published: 2026-02-06 · Last updated: 2026-02-06

The fastest way to save recipes on Android is to pin Honeydew to the top of your share sheet. Once it's pinned, Honeydew will always appear as one of the first options whenever you tap "Share" in any app -- no scrolling required.

## Pin Honeydew in your share sheet

1

**Open any share sheet**

In any app (a browser, Instagram, YouTube, etc.), tap the share button to bring up the Android share sheet.

2

**Find Honeydew in the app list**

Scroll through the row of app icons until you see Honeydew. If you've just installed the app, it may be near the end of the list.

3

**Long press on Honeydew**

Press and hold the Honeydew icon. A small menu will appear with the option to pin it.

4

**Tap "Pin"**

Select the pin option. Honeydew will now be locked to the front of your share sheet so it's always within easy reach.

The exact wording and appearance of the pin option can vary slightly between Android versions and device manufacturers, but the long-press method works on most devices running Android 12 and above.

## Add a home screen widget

For even faster access, you can add a Honeydew widget to your home screen. The widget gives you a quick shortcut to open the app or start saving a recipe without navigating through your app drawer.

1

**Long press on your home screen**

Press and hold an empty area on your Android home screen until the customization menu appears.

2

**Tap "Widgets"**

Select the Widgets option from the menu.

3

**Find the Honeydew widget**

Scroll through the widget list or use the search bar to locate Honeydew.

4

**Drag it to your home screen**

Press and hold the widget, then drag it to your preferred spot on the home screen.

Pinning Honeydew in the share sheet and adding the widget together means you're never more than one or two taps away from saving a recipe, no matter where you find it.
