That would be nice

What do I tell Siri to create a shortcut to unmute my Apple Watch and iPhone after I leave the location where it was set. This is what I have the shortcut set as and the request to enter an address when I want that address to be noted where I trigger the mute

Hi everyone. I'm the developer of Shortcutify. Version 2.0 went live on the App Store today. It's a rewrite of the app after a long pause.

What it does

Shortcutify turns third-party services into actions for the Shortcuts app. You pick a service, pick what you want it to do, fill in the details, and test it against your own account inside the app. That becomes a saved action. In Shortcuts there's one Shortcutify block, Execute Action, where you choose which saved action to run. It has ten inputs, Param 1 to Param 10, for values your shortcut passes in.

Services in 2.0

• Notion. You pick a page and a table, and the app builds a form with one control per column. It can add rows, find them, change them, and add content to a page.
• Airtable. You pick a base and a table and get the same kind of form. It can add, find, read, change and delete records.
• GitHub. Repositories, issues, pull requests and gists, including comments.
• Spotify. Search, playback controls, the queue, playlists and saved tracks.
• Dropbox. Upload files, create folders, move, copy, search, and make shared links.
• Philips Hue. Lights and scenes through your Hue Bridge.
• YouTube. Public videos, channels, playlists and comments.
• YouTube Analytics. Reports for your own channel.
• Jev. Questions and structured answers you can use in later steps.

These are the first ones, and more services are coming.

The rest of it

• An action can have several steps. A later step can use anything an earlier one returned, including when the two steps use different services.
• Your shortcut can pass in text, photos, PDFs and other files.
• You choose which fields from the response go back to your shortcut.
• Every run is logged, including the ones started from Shortcuts, with what each step sent and what came back.
• On iOS 27 with Apple Intelligence, you can describe an action in a sentence and the app drafts the steps. It uses Apple's Private Cloud Compute, and the draft opens in the normal editor so you can check it before you save.

Setup

Each service needs its own connection. Some take an API key or an access token, and Spotify needs your own free developer app. The guides are at https://getshortcutify.app/docs/. Credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain.

Bug reports and requests go on r/Shortcutify, @shortcutify, DM or whatever works for you. If there's a service you want next, tell me what you'd use it for.

Thanks !

Hi everyone!! I’m very new to shortcuts and was trying to figure out a way to automate turning microphone (and camera?) access on/off for incoming/outgoing calls on WhatsApp but haven’t had any luck :( if I try to search online for similar shortcuts, I can’t find anything and the (fuckass) Google AI overview is telling me it’s not an option, but I wanted to ask if anyone has any suggestions for how I could make this work? I’m mainly interested in automating microphone access to turn on/off when WhatsApp audio calls start and end, but if someone knows how I can automate turning both microphone and camera access on/off for WhatsApp video calls starting and ending that would be a bonus!!

CONTEXT:
I want to keep microphone and camera access off for WhatsApp generally because I’m sick of Meta apps using my camera and microphone in the background and selling my data to the highest advertising bidder. I have camera and microphone access turned off on all the other Meta apps I have (Instagram, FB etc) and it doesn’t affect my usage of those apps, but my work keeps using WhatsApp calls (rather than calling normally), so it says “call failed” because the microphone isn’t on, and it’s very annoying to manually go to settings -> WhatsApp -> turn microphone access on, especially when there’s an active incoming call.

ALTERNATE/help me modify this existing shortcut (App Settings Shortcut THANK YOU @ u/complaintkey):
I saw another reddit post (OG post) for a shortcut to launch the app settings for an app that you’re currently on (which is very helpful and I’ve added that to my shortcuts + control centre), so even if someone can help me figure out how to customise this to open WHATSAPP specific settings only (even if I’m not currently using the WhatsApp app i.e. when calls come through, and because I don’t need this shortcut for any other app), that would be amazing thank you!!

I like to use Siri to send messages hands free with my AirPods, but sometimes I need to send them in another language then what my Siri is set to. So I built this shortcut. I can simply say: “hey siri, translate and send message” and it will ask to whom, what I want to say, and in what language.
Link to shortcut
Here is the issue though. Apple foundation models returns an error a lot of the time. Like probably around 60% of the time. Can someone explain why?

Yes, I know you can use the Apple translate shortcut action, but that has very limited input/output languages. A LLM has a lot more flexibility in that sense. For example, my native language is Norwegian, which is not supported.

I’ve personally tried to replace Apple foundation models actions with Claude, which works, but each message is then a new conversation in my Claude history. That gets messy real fast.

Again here is the link

I see there are toggles people have created for disabling NextDNS protection, and with that you can set a timer (5 mins for example) before re-enabling. My assumption is they've done it with a script as it's not a supported app in Shortcuts. that's above my expertise.

Has anyone created an Adguard on that, when pressed, opens Adguard and disables protection, then x seconds later, re-enables it? If so can you share?

Apple just gave Shortcuts some pretty powerful capabilities that aren't even available to developers through public iOS APIs. One example is the ability to generate audio using the new expressive Siri voice.

The downside is that you can't build a proper UI using just Shortcuts.

So I'm thinking of building some 100% free companion apps that provide a proper native UI. An example would be a text-to-speech (TTS) app like ElevenReader. The idea is that the app would trigger a Shortcut to access the forbidden expresive Siri voice, then save and play it back through a proper interface like any other audio player, with text highlighting etc.

Two questions for you guys:

1. What other powerful Shortcuts capabilities could use a proper UI?
2. Do you think Apple will approve apps like this? It's kind of a work-around, and there may be reasons apple didnt release these API's to 3rd party apps.

In Apple Home automations (where function calls are much more limited than Shortcuts) I’m looking to link a shortcut to a button press without retyping every single line of shortcut code.

There is a combination of six button presses - if I do “Convert to Shortcut” (each shortcut has a PUT REST call via Get Contents Of URL) I have to type every header and header again and again.

Obviously, I can’t run another shortcut in Automations.
And it doesn’t seem like I can copy paste.
Is there a workaround so I don’t have to retype the Shortcuts? I had to reset one of the buttons and just lost all six automations.

I’m trying to execute a put call to a URL and link it to a matter button. The shortcut runs in test, but won’t run when the button is pressed. The button works for all other shortcuts.

Davide here, I build DrivePulse by myself. The app talks to your car through a generic ELM327 OBD2 adapter (Bluetooth LE or Wi-Fi on iPhone, for example Veepeak or Vgate) and logs your trips automatically. It is read-only: it asks the car for data and never sends it commands.

On iPhone it adds five actions to the Shortcuts app, and they work without opening DrivePulse:

• Start trip and Stop trip: open a trip, or close it and save it.
• Pause trip and Resume trip: for a stop at the pump or for lunch. Resuming is always up to you.
• DrivePulse status: says whether the adapter is connected, whether a trip is recording, and the distance and end time of the last trip.

Two automations they suit well:

1. Personal Automation > CarPlay > Connects > DrivePulse status, run immediately: the moment you sit in the car you know whether the adapter answered.
2. Personal Automation > CarPlay > Disconnects > Stop trip: the trip is closed as soon as you get out, without waiting for the app to notice.

A Home Screen button for Pause trip works well too, and the four trip actions can be triggered by voice.

The actions never run on their own: they only act when one of your shortcuts or automations calls them.

There's no account and no server on my side: trips stay on your phone and I don't keep a copy. Trip logging and car readings work offline; maps and addresses need a connection.

The 10 codes below unlock the full version permanently, free, first come first served. A code unlocks the in-app purchase, so install the app first. Then open the App Store, tap your profile picture at the top right, choose Redeem Gift Card or Code and type the code.

Please write in the comments which number you used, so others skip it.

Without a code there's a trial: 7 days or 15 trips, whichever ends first, and the 7 days start only when the app first connects to the adapter.

If you build something with these actions, I'd love to see it.

Hello everyone,

Hello everyone,

I wanted to share some news about new features available on Shortcuty. If you don’t know already, Shortcuty is a community website & native iOS app that allows you to browse and download shortcuts created by the community, and share your own as well.

We’ve recently introduced a ton of new features. All shortcut listings, comments, etc., are now automatically translated into multiple languages so that your shortcuts can reach users internationally. You can now create hidden shortcuts, which makes it so they do not appear to the public but can be found if you’d have a direct link to it. We’ve also introduced completely free shortcut signing, available on the website and directly in the latest version of the app! There is now a shortcut building IDE available directly on the website, allowing you to program shortcuts in our custom language called Shortcuty Script. You can also build shortcuts directly with AI in Shortcuty Script as well by connecting your API key to the IDE.

We’ve also completely removed ads from the app. No need to pay a dime for an ad-free experience. Shortcuty is also trusted by the [r/Shortcuts](r/Shortcuts) subreddit which means you can post Shortcuty links directly without an iCloud link if you’d want to.

If you don’t have Shortcuty already you can download it from here: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6751129542 or use it from a browser at https://shortcuty.app

Hello! I’ve been relying on this handy shortcut to batch extract text from multiple images and sequentially merge it into a single .txt file.

Since I installed Mac OS Golden Gate, the shortcut has been processing only the first image in the input folder. Can anyone help identify what’s going wrong and how I might get it working as before? Thank you!

Yesterday, I migrated from an old iMac 2019 running macOS 15, to a new M6 Mac Mini.
This morning I discovered that all my Shortcuts had reverted to ancient versions. Any edits I’d made in the last, I don’t know how long (months), are just gone. No history to fall back on. No confirmation regarding version conflicts. Just gone.

I guess this is just a warning for others - if you’re migrating from an older OS, back up your shortcuts before they sync to the cloud.

I'm curious to know what shortcuts everyone uses on their iPhone that have genuinely made everyday life easier whether it's something simple or a more advanced automation.

I've started experimenting more with the Shortcuts app and one automation I use regularly automatically reduces the white point on my display at night. It makes the screen much dimmer than the standard brightness slider allows which makes it far more comfortable to use my phone in the dark without straining my eyes. I've also added a shortcut to my Control Centre that lets me quickly turn my smart lights on or oft without having to open the app itself. It's a small convenience but it makes controlling my lights so much easier.

What shortcuts or automations do you use that you couldn't live without? I'd like to discover some new ones and see what everyone else has come up with :)

This post had been removed 3 times because apparently you have to write paragraph in the title.

Anyways. I can get thisv to run manually but it's not running at the specified time daily and I don't know why. Can anyone help?

I made a custom Pomodoro app with fully working work time, break time, long break and sets. (I put warm up time but you can delete it if you don’t desire it) I put the automation that changes depending on the time.

Before you use it, go into the “Pomodoro” and “Pomodoro Check” shortcuts to change the calendar to your desired one.

This version should work with most iOS. The automation unfortunately only works with iOS 27, I can’t get it to work with older ones. But you are more than welcome to tweak it to work.

Hi, I set up a very simple shortcut to text my partner when I am on my way home, but when I use it, it instead texts a completely different incomplete "phone number".

The shortcut consists only of (message icon) Send "On my way!" to "(contact name)". In the expand arrow, "Show Compose Sheet" is toggled off.

Why doesn't it use the contact I selected? It instead sends a text message to +1 (seven random numbers), zero relationship between the numbers and the contact's phone number.

Tried searching on here and in general and found nothing. Contact is on an iPhone if that matters, but I did not see any differentiation in the Shortcut options for message vs SMS vs iMessage.

i know there are already tons of expense tracking and budgeting apps out there, but i wanted to build something a little different. something with a cleaner, simpler UI, while still having the functionality to split bills with your friends.

so i built wym (where's your money).

essentially, it's a budgeting app + Splitwise combined into one.

the whole idea started when i first entered uni. we had so many hangouts, bonding sessions, dinners, and whenever the bill came, it was always a headache. who paid for what? how much does everyone owe? who's splitting with who?

and as a broke uni student, tracking my expenses was also one of the ways i tried to keep myself disciplined with my spending.

so i thought, why not combine both?

here's how wym works:

1. track your expenses (manually or automatically)

you can use the app normally and input your expenses manually, without setting up anything extra.

but obviously, i'm lazy.

so i also built in Apple Shortcuts integration. you set it up once, and your transactions can be recorded automatically. at least for me, i barely have to manually input anything anymore.

2. split bills with your friends

once an expense is recorded, you can choose to split it with your friends. no more calculating who owes who or digging through old chats trying to figure out what happened to that $80 dinner.

3. AI-powered categorisation

i know we're all a little skeptical about AI being shoved into everything nowadays, but i think this is actually a pretty useful application of it.

wym uses AI to read the transaction descriptions captured through Apple Shortcuts and automatically categorise your expenses.

so instead of manually deciding whether something belongs under food, shopping, transport, etc., the app does it for you.

4. automatic split settlement matching

this is probably one of my favourite features.

when your friend transfers you money, wym can detect the name and amount from the transaction. if it matches an outstanding split, it'll suggest linking that payment to the split.

you just have to approve it, and it's settled.

the whole point is to make expense tracking and splitting bills as effortless as possible.

but ultimately, i think what i'm trying to achieve with wym is to help us become a little more conscious of how we spend our money.

not necessarily to force everyone to budget every single dollar, but at least to have a clearer picture of where our money is going.

and yes, everything is free! (for now)

i'm also trying to figure out a way to give the first 100 users 1 year of premium for free as a small thank you for being early supporters.

currently, the app is on version 1.1.14 on the App Store, and i'm already working on rolling out another update (arghhhh Apple review).

but before i keep building more features, i genuinely want to know whether this app is actually useful to other people, and more importantly, whether it's easy to navigate and use.

website: https://wym.waasg.com/

app store: https://apps.apple.com/sg/app/wym-wheres-your-money/id6758560179

i'd really appreciate it if you could give it a try and let me know what you think!

whether it's the UI, bugs, confusing features, or something you wish the app could do, i'm open to any reviews, suggestions, and feedback.

just pls be gentle, thanks HAHAHA.

I tried using notification texts to detect it but that doesn’t work. Any ideas?

I want to make my phone ring when an instagram call is incoming
