IOS Shortcuts APP

• The iOS Shortcuts app is one of Apple's best kept
  secrets. It might seem a little intimidating, but
  with practice, Shortcuts will open up a whole new
  way for you to use and interact with your iPhone
  or iPad. This app expands the functionality of
  your device so that you can do things that you
  never thought possible, and it will save you time
  on repetitive tasks.
• Shortcuts are a way to automate a task on your
  iPhone or iPad. They can be simple one-step
  actions or complex scenarios that require
  multiple steps and apps.

Find Shortcuts for iPhone iPad

• Although you can create your own, the fastest way
  to embrace the power of shortcuts is to browse
  the Gallery in the iOS Shortcuts app. The
  Shortcuts Gallery has a huge number of curated
  shortcuts that you can add to your library and
  begin using with just a couple of quick taps.
• The gallery is sorted thematically. For instance,
  there are shortcuts for accessibility, shortcuts
  for Apple Music, shortcuts for sharing, and much
  more. However, you can also search for specific
  shortcuts by using the search bar. Simply type in
  a keyword or app that you want to automate and
  then browse through the search results.
