Shortcut support is entirely broken
A recent app update completely broke shortcuts support for Control Center, with shortcuts stopping and displaying a “Control Center quit unexpectedly” notification.
I rely heavily on Shortcuts for automation with my Elgato lights, so I opened a support request. Their initial advice was that the problem was with my phone or with Shortcuts, and not a problem with the app. I had to really push the issue for it to be taken seriously, but they have not been able to offer me a solution.
I asked for an escalation and have not heard back after a few months.
Shortcuts is kind of the ugly duckling of the Apple ecosystem. Nobody really wants to support it; I get it. But Shortcuts was the only thing that let me automate my Elgato lights with everything else, and it really took a load off for a while there.
Unfortunately if they’re not taking their support tickets that seriously, I’m going to have to look at non-Elgato products in the future.

Gave up
I’ve given up on this app locating my key lights. I’ve gone back to manually turning them on and off. Nice try, I guess.
