Tado Shortcuts is a powerful and intuitive application designed to enhance your smart home experience by seamlessly integrating your existing Tado devices with iOS Shortcuts. Most current actions supported by Tado are available as an action for you to create your own shortcuts from, and there are some easy to use shortcuts available from the get go. NEW - Tado X support: Tado Shortcuts now works with Tado's newer X generation alongside the existing Tado V3+ support. Your homes are detected automatically, so there is nothing to set up, and if you own both generations each home simply offers whatever it supports. For Tado X rooms you can read live temperature and humidity, set a target temperature, turn a room on or off with the full range of timers, and resume the room's schedule. The ready-made Boost, Turn Off All and Resume All Schedules shortcuts work across every home you own. The ability to manage and group schedules has also been included for power users that may have different requirements for their week-to-week lifestyle and want to easily maintain and apply different schedules. Widgets provide at-a-glance information about the comfort of your home! NOTE: You need to already own your own Tado Home devices, such as a Tado V3+ or Tado X, and have set up the native application to use Tado Shortcuts. To login, simply use your existing Tado Home credentials. Tado Shortcuts does not store any information remotely, and only communicates with the Tado service remotely. Schedules are stored on your device and will be deleted if you move device or uninstall the application. A list of features currently supported: Tado V3+ and Tado X: - Getting Home/Zone Information - Getting Zone sensor data - Getting/Setting Zone temperature or power settings with various timers - Resuming a Zone's schedule - Boost, Turn Off All and Resume All Schedules - Getting/Setting home/away modes - Getting outside temperature and solar intensity Tado V3+ only: - Getting/Setting early start - Setting Away temperatures - Setting active timetables and schedules - Creating, grouping and applying schedule profiles This application is made by an independent developer and not related to Tado GmbH.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: T at Free against Tado Shortcuts's $6.99. T also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.1). Tado Shortcuts's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
