So far there are three methods I am aware of to trigger a shortcut in the native iOS Shortcut app:

  • Use Siri
  • Tap the shortcut in the iOS Shortcut app
  • use personal automation

All of these require me to do something. Are there any other possibilities to do so? Background: I am running home assistant and HomeKit and would like to trigger a shortcut using intercom, to announce text to people in certain rooms/areas using HomePods there.

Yeah, it’s kind of sad. I think it’s a security consideration from Apple because personal shortcuts can access personal data from your phone. That’s why I don’t expect this to change in the anytime soon.
