Open current shortcuts
Opens a Shortcuts folder named “Current” so you can access shortcuts you are actively working on.
Welcome to my public Shortcuts Library!
Check out the collection below to get started with Shortcuts — there are over 700 in total across the free and members-only collections.
Members also get bundle shortcuts, which compile each folder into single shortcuts so you can get all the benefits in one download.
Table of Contents
Early Access shortcuts
Shortcuts built based on the new actions in the iOS 16 public betas.
These are available in early access for members ahead of the public catalog update this fall alongside iOS 16 — these may be updated before release.
Folder groups
All shortcuts are collected into the same folders that I use in the Shortcuts app, color-coded by the larger category groups.
This section shows both free and members-only shortcuts together in the same lists, unless otherwise specified.
Productivity shortcuts
Lifestyle shortcuts
All 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 ideas.
In general, an entire folder of shortcuts are either all free or all members-only — except the bundle shortcuts available on each page.
