Reply to comment by navjot94 in It feels like a wasted opportunity to not be able to access app settings from the home screen by long pressing an app by SantiFRV_
Deciding what elements show in that long press menu is up to the app’s developers themselves

Most are not gonna do that and i don’t think devs can invoke the system settings from those shortcuts. They likely only allow you to trigger intents for your own app- but I could be wrong.
This would be useful for example, bc you could quickly toggle permissions for apps or turn notifications on/off for those apps. This is also in line with iOS behavior in other situations. For example if you swipe to “options” from a notification, all the menus that pop up there include a “view settings” option. Should work the same way on the Home Screen, that just takes you to that app’s system settings page.
