If you use the Shortcuts automations like I do, surely you can find it difficult to manage them. Automation Control works with the Shortcuts app to provide a better way to manage your Shortcuts automations. This app, in a nutshell, is a glorified IF statement that determines if your automations should run or not. By simply adding Automation Control's Get Status of Item action to your Shortcuts Automations or by using the Automation Control Template shortcut, you now have better control over enabling, disabling, pausing, or setting conditions for your automations unlike ever before. This does not replace your Shortcuts automations tab; you still need to do some setup there for this app to manage them. Originally a shortcut a few years ago, and now an app, and with it, here are some things that you can do... - Name your automations along with adding an icon and a description - Sort your automations in order of A-Z, Z-A, Status, or Manually - Quickly toggle on/off your items with a simple double tap and view its status right on the item row - Multiple indicator views to choose your favorite way of viewing the on and off status of your items - 12-hour and 24-hour timing support - Backup and Restore - Log View to see a log of when your automations completed successfully - Send or Receive a text variable between Shortcuts and this app - Filter/Group automations based on status - Search bar to search for specific automations - Pin automations - Set timers on your automations - Multiple layouts - Set conditions such as Date & Time, Location, Focus Modes, Weather, and more... - More and more to come... How to use: - Create an Automation Control item by tapping the + button in the top right. - Name, describe, and select an icon and, of course, enable it. - Leave it as a Controller item by simply saving the new item or tap the Controls button and set various conditions. - Download the Automation Control Template shortcut, rename it to the same name as the control item you’ve just created, and set up your actions. - Set up your automation via the Automation tab in the Shortcuts app and add a Run Shortcut action from the list of actions and select the shortcut you’ve just modified.
