its good and I have a idea!

Maybe make a slider that makes it change a variable,
Also a action that picks up solar activity,
And also the moon, because for some reason it isn't in shortcuts.
Also it would be useful if we had a wait action that could actually type in the number, and also change between seconds and minutes

Amazing

The possibilities are endless with the building blocks you have provided. Much thanks

Should Be OS Included

Absolute necessity for anyone interested in utilizing shortcuts. Apple should include these features by default. Unbelievably great and seamless. Developer deserves 5 stars.

Excellent!

At least on ios26 a restart before being able to see and use the Actions in Shortcuts isn’t necessary.

Top dog

So good so many possibilities

Everything one can want for Shortcuts and more :)

fast and i have yet to encounter any bugs

Great

Gives so many options. I wish that they didn’t have to open the app when they are run in a shortcut but there’s probably no other way.

Apple please hire this person

Before I downloaded Actions, I was making lots of simple programs in Shortcuts, but kept running into things I couldn’t do. I knew my ideas were possible. I knew exactly what features I was missing. Now, with Actions, I’m making a tool that triangulates the location of a distant object. In order to do that, you need access to your phone’s compass, which there is an Action for (Get Compass Heading). You can also access the phone’s gyroscopic movement sensors (Get Device Motion Data, Get Device Orientation). These appear alongside the standard actions in the Shortcuts app.

So there are some things like that, that aren’t possible in Shortcuts without Actions. Many other things such as list processing are possible without it but easier or fewer steps with it.

There are a bunch of random cool features such as Get Related Words (multiple languages supported) and lots of basic little workhorses like Remove Duplicate Lines. You can encrypt and decrypt. You can process images or create a blank one from scratch. There are some Actions that duplicate standard Shortcuts actions but with nitpicky improvements in how they’re carried out.

My complaints are minor. Current version of iOS required. Some fields need a press & hold to select a variable or prior action. Some descriptions are detailed and helpful while others are like “Shuffle List: Shuffles the input list.” Some bugs exist, but nothing like the Shortcuts app itself. In fact, some of them are due to Shortcuts bugs that Apple would need to fix. This is my first ever app review but now I want to review Shortcuts! No five stars there! Maybe Apple should hire the person who made this app. Work like this is a gift to humanity.

Awesome app for shortcuts :)

It’s really good and smooth, and has a colour picker which I very much needed for one of my shortcuts. One thing though, when you go in the app to do some actions, it shows the menu for a second then goes to the action you want to do.

Ein Traum

Danke für die super App!

An absolute godsend

I’ve never used the Shortcuts app because of how limited it felt like using, but this app makes it so much better to use, and it’s user-friendly as well.

I love this app and love that it’s free

The dev is a real one

This is the most UNDER RATED app on this store!

If you use apple shortcuts and make them? You need this app! Seriously its amazing, no ads, no pay walls, The person that designed this has made an amazing stable app that they could have made a lot of money from and they are giving you it for FREE!!! Side note if you make shortcuts and you aren’t using it? Download the app, visit the website and learn what amazing powerful actions you can do with it. You will NOT regret it.

Amazing 🛠️

Love 💕

Best Shortcuts companion app by far

If you’re just getting into shortcuts and you’ve stumbled upon companion apps or have just run into roadblocks with the native features—start here. I have Actions, Toolbox Pro, and DataJar, and I’m really only using Actions at this point. Only a few actions in Toolbox Pro are not replicated here, and since Actions has support for global variables, keywords, and a ton more, I’m just not using data jar as much these days. We’re all very lucky that the developer has chosen to keep this app fully free, doesn’t do a single thing to get your data, and still updates it. Ethical, self-sacrificing, and highly competent

Needs more text and array functions.

App is very powerful and as tons of functionality to shortcuts it’s a must have! Dev should add more text matching and array vs text matching functions oh and live activity and maybe enhanced notifications too 😁🥴 very good app once again this is a must have!!

Great

“Is silent mode on” always returns true when the camera app is open

The best app in the world

Thank you for this app

Game changer!

Just converted an infinite (kind of) looped shortcut to parse some data, to a few lines of actions node. Aaaand it's entirely free!!
