How about Signing In?
Shortcuts in Ziik send your Users direct to your other applications. Each application is responsible for the Signing In and Authentication of your Users. However modern applications have a built in feature that memorise users sign-in credentials, which means that users are automatically signed in to their commonly used applications.
