Whatʼs a shortcut?
A shortcut is a quick way to get one or more tasks
done with your apps. The Shortcuts app lets you
create your own shortcuts with multiple steps. For
example, build a “Surf Time” shortcut that grabs the
surf report, gives an ETA to the beach, and launches
your surf music playlist.

Whatʼs an action?
An action—the building block of a shortcut—is a
single step in a task. Mix and match actions to create
shortcuts that interact with the apps and content on
your Apple devices, as well as with content and
services on the Internet. Each shortcut is made up of
one or more actions.

What is automation?
Automation is a type of shortcut thatʼs activated by
an event, rather than manually. You can use the
Shortcuts app to set up a personal or home
automation and then have the automated shortcut
run when you arrive or depart, when you change a
setting on your iPhone, at a time of day, and much
more.
