ActionMate is a practical tool designed to enhance the usage of Action Button in conjunction with the Shortcut app. The action button is a new physical button added to the iPhone 15 Pro / Pro Max models, replacing the silent mode switch. It is recommended to use ActionMate on iPhone 15 Pro / Pro Max models for the best experience. Although the iOS system provides several default action button functions, ActionMate can help you greatly expand the function usage of the action button. Pressing the function button in different states can trigger various features, such as: - Pressing the action button in portrait mode to turn silent mode on/off; pressing it in landscape mode will open the camera. - Pressing the action button when the device screen is facing up will display a payment QR code; pressing it when the screen is facing down will start a one-touch recording. - Shaking the device after pressing the action button will change the wallpaper; not shaking the device after pressing will take a screenshot and share it directly. ... These are just a few basic examples of ActionMate's capabilities. With the high degree of freedom provided by the iOS Shortcut app, you can use ActionMate to stack a wide variety of complex functions. Even if you're not familiar with the iOS Shortcut app, ActionMate includes and will continue to update a number of sample shortcuts for one-click access. It also provides a number of shortcut usage tutorials to help you solve any problems. ActionMate will continue to improve in the long term. If you have any feature suggestions, please contact us through the App's built-in feedback mechanism.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: XAgo at 100% against ActionMate's 13%. XAgo also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (10 vs 1). ActionMate's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ActionMate holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: XAgo has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of XAgo's written reviews are positive against 13% of ActionMate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

XAgo ships an update every 4 days, ActionMate every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
