Hello and welcome to the Shortcuts Catalog!
This is a public resource to help people get started with Siri Shortcuts and the Shortcuts app.
It’s made up of three main sections below:
- the Shortcuts Library, a collection of starter shortcuts full of menus with hundreds of different ways to use them
- my Member Shortcuts, my advanced collection of shortcuts for folks subscribed to my membership (more below)
- the Action Directory, a documentation of the 300 built-in actions in Shortcuts available to browse outside the app
Subscribe to my newsletter to stay up with:
- New shortcuts as they’re added to the catalog & membership
- Shortcuts updates and new actions discovered in betas
- Stories from the community and links to related material
The following are the latest additions to my Shortcuts Library.
Check out the variety of shortcuts to get ideas of how you can utilize them in different areas of daily life, then add any you might use:
Play new music I haven’t listened to
FInd songs with 0 plays and released in the last 3 months, picks 25 at random, then shuffles them.
Show transit directions to work
Opens Apple Maps directions to a specified address showing public transit options instead of driving, walking, or biking.
Join my next meeting
Looks for the URL in your next meeting and asks if you want to open it.
Search TV Forecast
Asks you to enter a query, then asks you to pick from a type of search before opening the URL scheme into TV Forecast.
Search TV Forecast for a person
Asks you for a person (actor, director, etc), then encodes the result and opens the URL scheme into TV Forecast.
Search for a show
Asks you for a show, then passes the term into the URL scheme for TV Forecast to open into search results.
Open Threads desktop
Opens the Threads web app (after using Add to Dock) and resizes it to 700px wide to show the controls. Run from the Menu Bar, a keyboard shortcut, or Shortcuts’ own “Add to Dock” feature.
Open Threads
Opens the Threads app from Instagram/Meta. If run from iPad, activates Stage Manager so the app works as a standalone window; on iPhone, use with a custom icon and Add to Home Screen. On Mac, opens Threads.net.
Scrape Threads post
Accepts a Thread link as input, extracts the username and excerpt, and formats it with multiple link types into a JSON dictionary shared as output.
OCR Thread
Accepts a Thread link, scrapes the data, then opens the link, waits for it to load, takes a screenshot, extracts text from the screenshot, then prompts you to delete the extra text before replacing the excerpt in the Thread JSON dictionary.
