Shortcuts

Shortcuts (formerly Siri Shortcuts) is visual scripting software first released by Apple in 2018 as part of iOS 12 for iPad and iPhone users. A version for Mac users will debut in 2021 as part of macOS Monterey, superseding Automator. Existing Automator users will be able to import their workflows into Shortcuts.

History
The software began as Workflow, developed by DeskConnect in Iceland. It was sold through the App Store for $2.99 and won an Apple Design Award in 2015. In March 2017, Apple acquired DeskConnect and made Workflow a free download. Version 2.0 of the software was released as Siri Shortcuts with iOS 12 in September 2018.
