What’s New in Shortcuts in iOS and iPadOS 18.2, macOS 15.2, watchOS 11.2, and visionOS 2.2 »

iOS 18.2 brings new Fitness and Stocks actions, Get Current App for scripting, and new macOS support for a set of existing actions.

From Apple Support:

Updated actions

For those building custom shortcuts, some actions have been updated:

  • Home
    “Toggle Accessory or Scene” support has been expanded to macOS
  • Notes
    “Show Notes Folder” support has been expanded to macOS
  • News

Good to see so many actions come to Mac – I’m also looking forward to using the Fitness actions. Plus, Get Current App is great for the Action button.
