How to Do Math Problems from Your Quick Settings

In this video, I'll be showing you how a cool new app called "Quick Settings Calculator" that adds a calculator to Android Nougat's pull-down menu.
This is a lot like the calculator button in the iOS "Control Center," only better. It uses Nougat's new Quick Settings API to create the tile, then uses the new Quick Reply API to let you interact with it. In the end, it puts a calculator in your Quick Settings panel, and you can solve math equations directly from a notification.
For more custom Quick Settings tiles that use Android Nougat's new API, make sure to check out the full tutorial on Gadget Hacks.

Theres even some theming options, so you can choose the indicator icon yourself.
