Whatʼs a shortcut?
A shortcut is a quick way to get one or more tasks done with your apps. The Shortcuts app lets you create
your own shortcuts with multiple steps. For example, build a “Surf Time” shortcut that grabs the surf
report, gives an ETA to the beach, and launches your surf music playlist.
What is automation?
Automation is a type of shortcut thatʼs triggered by an event, rather than manually. You can use the
Shortcuts app to set up a personal or home automation and then have the automated shortcut triggered
by your arrival, your departure, a setting on your iPhone, a time of day, and much more.
