FAQ

Why is this free without ads?

I just enjoy making apps. I earn money on other apps. Consider leaving a nice review on the App Store.

Can I contribute localizations?

I don't have any immediate plans to localize the app.

    Actions v2 testing

    I have rewritten Actions from the ground up to use App Intents. Actions should now be faster, but there may be bugs.

    https://testflight.apple.com/join/fJGUrsZx

    There are many new actions.

    My goal is to publish the version officially when iOS 16.1 and macOS 13 is out.

    Action proposal: Shortcut to open selected file/folder with a given application?

    Description

    Hi there,

    I'd like to be able to have a shortcut that can do the following:

    I have selected a file or folder in both the Finder or Path Finder apps. I want to be able to use a shortcut to open the file or folder with the given app (for example, the app Meta). This global shortcut would need to be connected to this action (and given app). I can't find this shortcut anywhere.

  • "Scan QR codes in" does not detect QR code

    Description

    For testing purposes, I ran this action with a PNG image (created from a PDF file) that contains a QR code encoding transferal data for an invoice. The action produces an empty output.

    To verify, I used a Python script that wraps the zxing-cpp library. This correctly detects the QR code and outputs the encoded data

    Action proposal: Calculations with SoulverCore

    Description

    An action that allows for natural language calculations, as found in Soulver 3 and Toolbox Pro (currently only on iOS and iPadOS).

    For example, the action would take text input like "$10 for lunch + 15% tip" and produce "$11.50" as the result.

    The SoulverCore API is available here.

    Action proposal: Set default printer

    Description

    To replace ControlPlane that is no more supported, I would like to use Shortcuts. One of the feature that I use most is the ability to change the default Printer depending on the location (home, office, customer office sites, ...) It would be great if you could add this action. Thx and take care

    This is maybe more of a question, but I am on iOS 15.0.1 and built the app myself, surprisingly there were no issues. Is there a specific reason for being iOS 15.5 on the App Store version?

    Action proposal: Books from Google Books

    Description

    The mostly deceased ToolboxPro app runs a query on books.google.com through this api: https://developers.google.com/books/docs/v1/using it then created an object in the shortcuts world stocked with a bunch of details (author(s), title, category, description, ISBN, ...).

    Since the app is clearly dead, I would like to replicate its functionality. I will even learn to play with XCode if this made a usefyl difference.

  • “Authenticate” Action Without Opening URL

    “Authenticate” Action Without Opening URL

    It’s been a small pet peeve of mine that the Authenticate action requires you to open a URL. This is a small fix that I have seen in Toolbox Pro, but I would like for my users to install as little dependencies as possible.

  • Action proposal: get location of the closest point of interest to a given location

    Action proposal: get location of the closest point of interest to a given location

    Description

    Use case: I live in San Fransisco and frequently use a bike sharing program called Bay Wheels. However, the bike racks are sometimes hard to spot, and when biking to a new destination it's hard to know if you should stop at the first rack you see (even if it's farther away) or continue biking in the hope there's a rack closer.

    Apple Maps lists Bay Wheels bike racks, so it's possible to get directions to a rack. I'd like to make a shortcut that given a destination finds the closest bike rack to it and starts directions to the rack.

    Although there's a way to search for something around a location within a given radius, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to just get the closest [thing] to a location.

    Some workarounds are discussed here, but they're all rather clunky.

    If this is something you're interested in supporting, I'm happy to work towards a PR for it.

  • Action proposal: Get devices in your network

    Action proposal: Get devices in your network

    Description

    When I am connected to Wi-Fi, I want a list of devices on my network so I can connect to them, I wanted to build a shortcut that would get a list of all devices in my network and control them using SSH commands. This would also be useful when your local ip address changes and for whatever reason you can not assign a static one. There are apps that do this (Fing, iNet) but they do not seem to provide an action for this.
