When people search for your app, Spotlight intelligently offers your App Shortcuts to their next action within the Top Hit section. People can search for shortcuts they customized with your App Intents too.
The Shortcuts app lets people create custom shortcuts with multiple steps from their favorite apps. App Intents make it easier than ever to expose actions that can be paired with actions from other apps, with information passing between apps. And you can provide actions for querying data in your app, enabling powerful new use cases.
Shortcuts are one of the most underappreciated features for the iPhone and iPad. Using the Shortcuts app, you can automate common tasks and daisy chain apps to work together with a single command. Some shortcuts are immensely useful and can come in handy multiple times each week. Others can improve and simplify the experience of using your phone, making you wonder why you didn't start using the shortcut much sooner.
You can run shortcuts directly from the Shortcuts app, but it's a lot more convenient to start them by voice with Siri or by adding your favorite shortcuts as widgets to the iPhone's Home page. A few shortcuts are special cases and are best run from the Share page within the app where the shortcut is designed to work.
Shortcuts that are downloaded from the web or shared with you by others may not have been reviewed by Apple, and Apple has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content or functionality of those shortcuts. You should review all shortcuts downloaded from the web or shared with you with extra caution to confirm that they function as you expect.
You control which shortcuts access your personal data, such as your location (precise or approximate), contacts, health data, payment information, or the contents of your documents. You can review and control the data that a shortcut has access to in the details section for that shortcut.
Third-party apps extend the functionality of Shortcuts by offering specialized actions and triggers. Meanwhile, advanced scripting methods enable users to tailor their shortcuts to fit their unique needs and preferences.

For websites you access often, this is a great time-saving trick. It's right up there with in-app home screen shortcuts as an undervalued feature. As more web apps become available, there's less of a need for native apps.
