This App Lets You Create Automations Your Mac Usually Doesn’t Support ...Middle East

News by : (Live Hacker) -

Shortcutie itself has no interface. Once installed, all of its actions will appear in Apple's Shortcuts app on your Mac. To access them, install the app, open Shortcuts, and select Shortcutie from the Apps tab in the right pane. The app requires Accessibility permissions to function, which is necessary because macOS's strict sandboxing rules prevent apps from running many of the actions this app supports. (Note: only grant apps you trust, like Shortcutie, this permission.) Once you grant it access, you'll find new, useful tools in Shortcuts, such as changing your default browser, clearing all notifications, hiding all windows, quitting all apps, and checking if your screen is being recorded, mirrored, or shared.

macOS supports all of these actions, but they aren't available in Shortcuts, which prevents you from creating automation routines around these actions. Once you have Shortcutie, you can add these triggers to your shortcuts and execute complex automations that your Mac doesn't otherwise support. Don't forget that the Shortcuts app appears in the menu bar and you can run automations directly from the menu bar, too. That can make it much quicker and easier to run certain actions, such as the dreaded "clear all notifications." When you combine this app with Shortery, which lets you run Mac automations based on various triggers, you can automate pretty much everything.

At the time of writing, Shortcutie supports 29 actions, and the developer, Sindre Sorhus, has promised to add more. The biggest concern is that Shortcutie relies on private APIs to access these actions and those can change at any point. The developer has promised to keep a tab on these changes and to support the app, but it does leave the app vulnerable to losing features. Regular updates should be able to fix any issues that may crop up in the future, but it's something to keep in mind.

I'm not worried though, knowing the developer: Sorhus has created over 50 apps and utilities for Mac and iPhone (Lifehacker has covered many), so I expect he will continue to keep Shortcutie updated.
