Makes Shortcuts even more Powerful

A really useful app for pushing Shortcuts automation even further — it allows me to trigger notifications that run Shortcuts and pass data into Shortcuts by simply making REST calls. Also, I had an issue with the app which I reported to the developer — he was quick to reply and swiftly solved the problem. Great app, great developer!

Missing Piece of Shortcuts Puzzle

Powerful little app that prompts you to run shortcuts from a notification.

For example, using IFTTT, Date & Time & Webhooks. If this date, send get to Pushcut URL -> notification on phone -> run shortcut.

Useless

They require a subscription for any basic uses of this app. At least we should be able to use the basic features without a subscription. Money should be optional. The devs don't know the first thing about making a functional subscription service.

Edit: last time I checked, the input parameters are blocked without a pro subscription.

Response from developer

I am really sorry you feel that way. The free version allows you to send unlimited notifications for up to three different use cases/shortcuts. Which feature would you need in the free package to get "basic use" for you? --- You are correct: passing input parameters - along with the other customization options in the JSON interface - are part of the Pro level currently priced at 2$/month. I am sorry that this pricing does not work for you, but for now I will stick with it. The JSON interface will be extended very soon, and I will consider your point of moving the basic input parameters to the free version. I cannot make any promises yet though.

Great for only single actions!

I know a developer should have limitations when it comes to needing money, but it does everything that I need when it comes to making basic notifications. Only suggestion that I have is that there should be in is a help section. At first, I didn’t know how to push the notification out, but I know how to now from using your site. Please be sure to include a help section for those who don’t know how to instead of either writing a bad review or doing one extra step and have to go to your site to do so. Great app though! Very convenient now so I can automatically backup shortcuts everyday :)

Response from developer

thanks for the feedback! I will be sure to include something in the app directly to make this bit clearer. I also plan to add direct IFTTT and Zapier integrations which should make this part even more streamlined.

This app solves a problem I didn’t know I had

Are you a power user who knows what a POST request is? If you use Shortcuts, you need this app!

Thank you for the nice review! Btw: You are officially the first ; ) I plan to add more customization options and flexibility to the notifications as soon as I can, so that us power users have even more to play with.
