New in the Shortcuts Library: Apple TV Apps shortcuts
While updating my Apple TV Remote shortcuts for multiple devices, I cleaned up my Apple TV apps and built out a new set of shortcuts to open them all.
Opens the Winter Fireplace app for Apple TV on a selected TV.
Opens the tvClock app for Apple TV that shows the time in a large flip-style format.
Opens the app Wordy for Apple TV that displays the time in an abstract text style, like “Quarter to twelve” rather than actual numbers.
Opens the Unsplash app for Apple TV, then shows the Remote so you can select a set of photos to display.
Opens the app Play for YouTube on an Apple TV of your choice so you can select videos you’ve saved for later to open in the YouTube app.
Opens the app Lumy for Apple TV, which lets you see relevant times for sunrise and sunset so you can know when to take the best photos.
Opens the Adobe Lightroom app for Apple TV, then shows the remote so you can select an album to view.
Creates a new blank contact in the Contacts app, so you can use the app UI to enter in details.
Presents your list of contacts, then calls the person you select. If they have multiple numbers, asks you which one to dial.
Opens to the Movies and TV Trailers section of the TV app (which replaced the dedicated Trailers app).
Takes a location as input or your current location and searches for nearby destinations noted as Landmarks, then opens your selected option in Maps.
Sets up dual monitors side-by-side, plus asks for an additional screen on the right and on the bottom for a Mac Mini or MacBook or iPad combo.
Dictates text to let you speak, then stops after a short pause.
Get way deeper into Shortcuts – become a member.
Enhance your experience with bonus shortcuts, folder bundles, and exclusive perks.

Discover endless possibilities by combining the building blocks for Shortcuts.
