### 3/5 — Works, but isn’t elegant.

*2024-11-27*

This app lets you pick a shortcut to run and place a button anywhere in your space. It’s likely this will be a native feature at some point, but this is a decent workaround. In order to use it, you have to type the name of the shortcut to run, instead of selecting the shortcut from a list. In addition whenever you click the button to run the shortcut, the shortcut app opens directly in front of the button. So instead of clicking the button to run the shortcut, your workflow actually looks like clicking the button, then clicking the exit button of the Shortcuts app. Even if you put the Shortcuts app in a different part of your room, it’s still appears above the button.
