With the presentation of iOS 12 we learned the direction Apple took in the purchase of Workflow. This app allowed you to automate various iOS tasks and, as rumored, with iOS 12 it has been implemented in a very simple way for iOS a through Siri with what is called Siri Shortcuts
Sharecuts allows users to share the Siri Shortcuts they have created
Thanks to them, we can create workflows like in Workflow. But it goes much further, since these shortcuts will be integrated with Siri and we will be able to tell our iOS virtual assistant to carry out said action that we have automated.
These workflows can be created by all users, but as was the case with Workflow, different users have decided to create a database to find these workflows to automate different tasks: Sharecuts .

This database is still under development, just like Shortcuts itself, but many of the users who already have betas of iOS on their devices already they have set to work. Thus, we can find different shortcuts, some of which are very useful, such as resizing an image and saving it to the clipboard, creating a mode called Time to fly or obtaining information on the betas of Apple
It is logical that once the final version of iOS 12 arrives, many more shortcuts created by other users will appear. In fact, any user who has been invited at registration can add the workflow themselves.
It is certainly a curious initiative and one that can be very useful once we have the final version of iOS 12 and Shortcuts is available to all users. For now, the vast majority of us have to continue using the useful original app Workflow.
