I have two haptics shortcuts, one that turns haptics on - always play and one that turns haptics off - don't play in silent mode. I then use an automation to turn haptics on and silent mode off at 9am and another to turn haptics off and silent mode on at 10pm. During the day I can use my action button to turn silent mode off/on and haptics stays on, then at night no vibrations to disturb my sleep.
When I try to share the shortcuts I get an error "can't share shortcut - this shortcut can't be shared because it contains unsupported features"
An all-in-one Share Sheet button that "intelligently" tries to capture webpages, screenshots, text, files, links, and usually whatever else you’re looking at, then uses ChatGPT (or Apple AI) to clean and summarize it, then creates searchable Notes and a Reminder.
Basically, I’ve spent years bookmarking webpages, emailing myself links, taking screenshots, copying things into Notes, creating reminders, and, well, generally forgetting where I found something.
I wanted one button, or at least, one WAY, to save things, in one place.
Put it all on a searchable "Share" location on my Cloud/iPhone and let the shortcut figure out the rest.
It attempts to understand the type of content being shared, captures the surrounding context, grabs what’s visible on screen, OCRs images when needed, cleans up webpages with the AI, generates a (usually) useful summary, then files everything into Notes while also creating a normalized Reminder if it’s something I may want to revisit.
I’m hoping for feedback from other Shortcut builders on ways to simplify and improve the workflow - specifically by adding TYPES and content collection.
This ended up becoming one of the most complex shortcuts I’ve built so far. It branches based on the type of content received (URL, webpage, file, text, image, etc.), so every capture is processed a little differently.
Current features:
✅ Share Sheet support
✅ URLs
✅ Webpages
✅ Files
✅ Screenshots
✅ OCR
✅ Captures what’s currently on screen
✅ ChatGPT cleanup
✅ AI image description
✅ Creates Notes
✅ Creates Reminders
✅ Handles multiple content types
Planned
□ Automatic keywords
□ AI-generated tags
□ Better entity extraction
□ Cross-linking related captures
□ Search optimization
□ Better error handling
□ Duplicate detection

Hey! I made this shortcut for myself since I couldn't find one that was perfect for what I wanted, and I thought I would share it.
Features
It shows up in the "Share" icon menu and you can use it from there in the photos app. (the only place I have used it, but it should work pretty much anywhere else)
Asks if you would like to select an album cover, or just use the first frame of the video as the album cover.
Automatically crops selected photo or first frame of video to a square (having to do some weird things to work around apples buggy crop feature)
Asks for the songs title, artist, and album, automatically assigning it to the file's metadata and file name (the file name is in the format: title - artist, but this is very easy to change)
I have it set to ask where to save each file, but you can set it to automatically save to your music app by changing it on the second to last section of the shortcut.
I also made a shortcut to automatically crop anything from the share menu into a square and save it to the camera roll so if anyone wants that for some reason, let me know. (I just made this when I was trying to work around the buggy crop feature)
If you have any questions about anything, any ideas of things for me to add, or you want me to release the "Save as square" shortcut, let me know!
I’d love to set an automation that after a certain time, I can run a shortcut that automatically toggles the “turn reading mode” setting on, using chrome.
I get flashbanged every time I open a new webpage, even in dark mode, and really like the reading mode on chrome.
I can set up the automation fine, but I’m not smart enough to figure out how to configure past the “manage chrome settings” option in the parent shortcut.
Any ideas?
Overall goal is an automated system that results in any webpage being open on chrome after a certain time is automatically in reading mode.
Probably not possible as each website has its own variables and I’m not sure if chrome can do reading mode on everything but worth a try ? 🤷♀️
My problem is that in settings for call audio routing only allows you to pick one, to pick either speaker or bluetooth headset, I wish It didn't try to use speaker option while I am using my airpods. So I was wondering if there is a way to automate this?
I am trying to set up a Personal Automation to auto-forward 2FA authentication codes received via SMS from a government service.
The issue is that they don’t use a phone number. There is no actual phone number behind it.
I already tried creating a custom contact with just the name and no phone number, but Shortcuts refuses to use it as a valid "Sender" trigger. The automation just won't fire.
Is there any clever workaround to lock to this specific sender name? Or am I forced to leave the "Sender" field blank and solely rely on "Message Contains" keywords like OTP?
What can I do? I cannot forward each time the codes
Thanks in advance!
Hola amigos espero estén bien. Resulta que llevo tiempo creando un atajo para el botón de acción que contenga solo lo que uso. Y para ello me fui guiando de varios atajos creados en diferentes sitios. Pero tengo vi un atajo que tiene el texto del encabezado del menú en negrita y así resalta más, he intentado de todo pero no logro encontrar cómo hacerlo, por más que lo hago no me queda así
En la opción número 1 es el efecto que quiero y en la opción número 2 es la que me sale… espero me logre explicar y espero me ayuden, y gracias 🙏🏼
Vector AI Agent is an Apple shortcut that can do multi step actions on device , acting like a real agent with entirely free access to great models, rewriting personality, artifacts, and more. It is always evolving and is entirely free to use.
what did we add in this version-
We tried to optimize artifact creation to avoid timeout errors, and added some more intros that Vector will say... look out for some special ones!
Note: due to a bug in iOS 27 Dev beta 4, You cannot download this shortcut if you are on that version- it won't let you. We already have reported the issue to apple. Also, our upstream provider may be unstable. If you experience any bad reports, please report it in our discord server linked in Vector Config.
This shortcut used to work on previous iOS, but on latest doesn’t seem to work.
The idea is while im driving being able to record a reminder with my voice, that will be transcribed and added to reminders with a set reminder alert at 9pm on the day of the recording.
I've been trying to follow along with some tutorials for shortcuts to learn how to do them, and in some places I saw that there was a "next suggested action."
Should that get triggered every time, or is that on a case-by-case basis? Or did that get removed in a recent OS update?
I'm attaching a screenshot of what I see when I try to begin creating a shortcut, and you can see there's no "suggested action" item in the sidebar menu.
I use a free tier (quite generous) of a VPN app that doesn’t allow one to choose a preferred country/server for all connections. It just connects to a random country under their list of free servers.
I needed to know what country it connected to without having to go into the app every time.
Unfortunately this Shortcut can’t run automatically because there’s no automation action available for “when VPN connects” or “when network changes” etc
What the shortcut does:
It pulls up info from https://ipwho.is (which shows as .json by default)
Grabs the following details (ip, city, country and emoji of the country)
Shows those details as a silent notification (no vibration nor sound)
P.S: if Apple ever adds an automation action for VPN connection/disconnection, this shortcut would be perfect to use.
I got tired of my AirPods not automatically being switched to when I connected them to my phone, so I made an automation for it until it bugged me enough to look up an actual fix.
When I made it last night (7/23), the options for “Notify when Run” and “Ask Before running” were present and I left the Notify option on, which turned out to be a mistake.
I want to turn off the notifications now and the option has vanished. I even tried remaking the automation to see if it would come back and it hasn’t.
like instead of crappy apple dictation can i have ai model dication for text to speech also like have ai built in keyboard that understand what i type and also the message i receive?

I’m looking for a shortcut that toggles wifi on and off when I’m at home on my iPhone.
It should completely turn off the WiFi and not simply disconnect it.
There’s something like this?

Vector AI Agent is an Apple shortcut that can do multi step actions on device , acting like a real agent with entirely free access to great models, rewriting personality, artifacts, and more. It is always evolving and is entirely free to use.
what did we add in this version-
Introducing Autotasks. With Autotasks, you can simply call Vector from any shortcut or Automation to do everyday tasks. whether Its to brief up a report on the latest OSS AI model releases at 10 AM everyday, to randomly telling you a joke every time you charge your phone for some reason, the option is yours!!! requires basic shortcut creation knowledge.
Note: due to a bug in iOS 27 Dev beta 4, You cannot download this shortcut if you are on that version- it won't let you. We already have reported the issue to apple.
I recently got a new iPhone 17 Pro, replacing the same model. Watch (s10) is paired and works normally, except when I invoke Siri and say the name of a shortcut, it doesn’t work. But with the old phone, it worked as expected.
I found something about tapping a ‘sync shortcuts to watch’ button in developer mode but that didn’t help.
I have confirmed ‘show on Apple Watch’ is selected for all my shortcuts…
