Nice to see a couple of new #actions in the 17.4 #iOSBeta version of the #ShortcutsApp. The “Get Orientation” one is particularly welcomed, as previous native workarounds for detecting the device orientation in a #shortcut stopped working in #iOS17. While there are 3rd party apps with additional #shortcuts actions, they often fly under the radar for most users.
Damn, I had no idea that in iOS 17, you can trigger automations by using Apple Pay. And you can even choose the categories of the transactions, so you can, for example, only run an automation when you buy food.
@weston I didn’t show that in the initial toot, but you can also trigger it with only specific merchants 😉 So it’s entirely possible to limit it to Steam only
@stooovie Yeah, I did the 15 and 16 betas on this guy, too, so I know what I’m getting into there for sure. Had a false start with the iOS 17 beta on my phone so I’m not ready to commit there just yet. :) Thanks again!
