What’s New in Shortcuts in iOS and iPadOS 18.2, macOS 15.2, watchOS 11.2, and visionOS 2.2 »

iOS 18.2 brings new Fitness and Stocks actions, Get Current App for scripting, and new macOS support for a set of existing actions.

From Apple Support:

New actions

    “Open Award,” “Open Session History,” “Open Fitness Settings,” “Open Trophy Case,” “Search in Fitness+,” “Open Trends,” and “Open View” are now available on iOS and iPadOS
  • Freeform
    “Rename Board” and “Update Board” are now available on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS

    “Get Current App” is now available on all platforms

Updated actions

For those building custom shortcuts, some actions have been updated:

  • Home
    “Toggle Accessory or Scene” support has been expanded to macOS
  • Notes
    “Show Notes Folder” support has been expanded to macOS
  • News
    “Show Topic” support has been expanded to macOS

Good to see so many actions come to Mac – I’m also looking forward to using the Fitness actions. Plus, Get Current App is great for the Action button.
