Deflector ◇ vs Extra Actions

With Deflector, you can add buttons to the Dynamic Island, Lock Screen and Apple Watch to run any shortcut. On supported iPhones in Japan, you can use your preferred voice assistant using shortcuts with the Side Button. To use Deflector, you need to set up an automation in the Shortcuts app. The automation is available within the app.
