Free vs. Member Shortcuts
Browse the latest shortcuts available for free or members-only.
Free shortcuts are easier to understand, solve a simple use case, or ideas that everyone should have in their collection.
Members-only shortcuts are more complex, solve specific use cases very well, and represent my unique creations.
Free shortcuts
Open my Shared list
Opens the Shared list in the Reminders app where you can see tasks assigned to you or shared with another person.
Play my Replay 2020
Plays the preselected Replay 2020 playlist on Shuffle. Apparently during lockdown, I listened to Lockdown and Make It Better by Anderson .Paak a lot – for some reason.
Play Upgrade
Plays the Upgrade podcast from Relay.FM with Jason Snell and Myke Hurley.
Open from my Health data
Presents a menu of Health tabs grouped by section, health records, and categories of health data, then opens to the tab of your choice.
Search for emails in Notion Mail
Asks you to search for emails, then opens the URL into Notion Mail with your query.
Search on Twitter
Asks you for a query, then opens the Twitter app to show you results.
Open my site overview on WordPress
Opens the Google Site Kit tab of a WordPress domain.
Capture a dictation
Allows you to dictate text into your phone until you tap it to stop, then shows the Share sheet so you can send your text somewhere else.
Members-only shortcuts
Open Zoom preferences
Opens into Settings > Accessibility > Zoom to let you toggle the feature on or off to magnify the entire screen with a double tap, three-finger drag, and double tap three fingers, as well as features like Follow Focus, Smart Typing, Keyboard Shortcuts, Zoom Controller, Zoom Region, Zoom Filter, Show while Mirroring, and Maximum Zoom Level.
Open Photos Recents
Opens the “Recents” collection in Photos, which shows photos and videos, plus imported graphics that don’t appear in the main Library view.
Action Shortcuts
Designed for running your shortcuts from the Action Button, this shows shortcuts from the visible app or by Focus Mode if not in an app. When in Work mode, also presents option to edit the shortcut. Also, using Orientation, sets DND if face-down and if upside down in pocket, opens Maps directions home.
Show Recent Apps
Activates Stage Manager with the Recent Apps option enabled (and the Dock hidden).
Get word count
Gets text from the Share sheet or clipboard and returns the total word count.
Manage my Transistor account
Opens the Account section of Transistor.fm where you can manage your profile, turn on two-step authentication, update your billing and subscription details, and copy your API key.
All Shortcuts Folders
All shortcuts are collected into the same folders that I use in the Shortcuts app, grouped into these categories.
Note: This section shows both free and members-only shortcuts together in the same lists.
However, usually an entire folder is either free or members-only.
AI shortcuts
Shortcuts for interacting with your preferred AI platforms of choice.
Work with Apple Intelligence, call out to ChatGPT, or open into Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, and Meta AI.
Or, take notes with Monologue.
App Store Apps shortcuts
Shortcuts for third-party apps from the App Store.
Some are sets of shortcuts for Actions and some are sets of Entities (each app’s custom data type).
For apps without Shortcuts support, these use URLs to deep link to the correct pages and get you there faster.
Apple Apps shortcuts
Shortcuts for Apple’s native apps.
Access your calendar, watch in the TV app, or managing your Shortcuts collection.
iOS 18 shortcuts
Shortcuts for the previous iOS 18 release cycle.
Improvements include Apple Intelligence actions, Controls, easier ways to add shortcuts to the Home Screen, actions for Messages, and more actions for Apple apps.
Creator shortcuts
Shortcuts for the workflows behind being a content creator.
Post your podcast or pull from your YouTube channel.
Scripting shortcuts
Shortcuts that take advantage of Shortcuts’ Scripting capabilities to provide more advanced capabilities for simple utilities.
Device shortcuts
Shortcuts focused on device-specific controls for each of Apple’s product lines or related accessories.
These work great in a Widget Stack in the Today view to the left of the Home Screen.
Settings shortcuts
Deep links or Controls for the Settings app and its related subsections.
Explore what’s possible with your device, re-use these in dedicated workflows, and rethink your relationship with your setup.
