Great app to help with automation organization

This app has been a long work in progress and started as a shortcut initially but morphed into something better that combined multiple shortcuts into a more streamlined interface. If you use automations, this is a very handy tool to have on your side to assist in various tasks

Thank you! More to come.

It works and it has intructions!

The developer is just so innovative in improving and providing extra control features to manage my automations. It’s been an amazing jump from the original Automation Control app version to this version. I’m happy to have it and best of all I have never seen an app so well documented as this one. I‘m not sure which the developer spent more time on the app or the docs, impressive.

Thanks zCAT, I’m trying my best to make it as simple to use as possible while also providing the missing features the Shortcuts app’s lacking. I’m glad that you find great value in the app and to tap into your curiosity, the app definitely has taken more time than the documentation. I’ll be working on the documentation soon to provide more detail, simplification and more examples for understanding. Thank you again, I truly appreciate the love.

A perfect addition to Shortcuts

Really, it's versatile and constantly improves with each update. Calendar event-based triggers are one of the most useful features.

Much appreciated. Thank you.

No clear instructions

I’m sure it has some potential but there’s no clear instructions for how to use it so whatever potential there is, is wasted.

Hi SeekerCons, there’s an in-debt guide found under Settings - About Automation Control. There’s also the Automation Control GPT accessible via the chat icon to the right of the Search bar. With the GPT, you can ask it scenario questions and it should give some insight on how to create the scenario and utilize the app. An example question can be How do I use this app or How do I create an automation that runs at 5 pm on Tuesday and Wednesday but only if I am at home? Hope this helps!

I love this

This application made managing my shortcuts way easier. Thank you for taking the time to go all-in & simplify automation control’s setup!

Want to make your Apple Shortcuts Automations even more usedul and effective? This is the app that will give you the ultimate in control and functionality. And it gets more powerful with each release. Need a Shortcut to run based on specific weather conditions, specific times of the day or even certain days of the month? This app gives you that control (plus so much more).

Amazing possibilities with continued development

Really doing a wonderful job at making a Shortcut dream turn into a reality. Automating these shortcuts and having a great way to schedule while still maintaining good repeatable functionality.

The new update provides so much great functionality and better UX that I forget what the original even was. Anybody that wants to schedule shortcuts needs to be using this app. And it's lightweight.

Keep up the great work!

Hi Stobby, The details on how to use the app are laid out in the Settings view of the app and tapping the Automation Control Site button. 2.0 is underway and has been simplified and has many more features. It will be much easier to use and understand. 2.0 has been released and simplified. You now just download the Automation Control Template shortcut and place your actions within it and assign it to your automation trigger via the Run Shortcut action. Now you can manage and control your Shortcuts Automations much easier.
