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.

After taking notes on how to design great actions, I wanted to share my mind map ahead of future blog posts on how to build great shortcuts with members.
When working with Mastodon accounts, there's only one place to add them to a List — the profile. With Shortcuts, I've built a tool that lets you add someone to a list from your timeline, a status post, or any link.
I've just added a bundle shortcut—Mastocuts Lists—and a folder of shortcuts for Mastodon Lists, available for members in the Shortcuts Library.
Hey members, I've just published 11 new shortcuts from today's stream featuring the new actions from the Things beta.
Tune into the latest episode of Shortcuts Live, where I streamed for a little over an hour covering the new Find Tab action that I discovered in iOS 16 public beta 2.
