Great for only single actions!

I know a developer should have limitations when it comes to needing money, but it does everything that I need when it comes to making basic notifications. Only suggestion that I have is that there should be in is a help section. At first, I didn’t know how to push the notification out, but I know how to now from using your site. Please be sure to include a help section for those who don’t know how to instead of either writing a bad review or doing one extra step and have to go to your site to do so. Great app though! Very convenient now so I can automatically backup shortcuts everyday :)

Can’t even use it

If you are actually any good at shortcuts, you’d know that the automation feature isn’t so good. This app does the same thing, but you need to pay and even then you’ll have to either pay $38 for most of the features or do a subscription. If you don’t pay you only can get a notification when one of your shortcuts finishes. You can only use it if you pay!This is a great idea, I love the app and everything about it. The only problem is that this app is the only app of its kind; this gives you the negative reviews you get because shortcut developers want to use the automation feature; but it works 20% of the time. So the shortcuts developer community is stuck between paying or getting garbage quality

I love it! Please make Siri Shortcuts available on Mac!!!

Excellent! I have had so much fun with Siri Shortcuts the last couple of days. I’m still learning more about it everyday. There are a few issues with Siri- she is stuttering a bit sometimes and automations occasionally doesn’t work. Besides that, the app is great. I have scheduled Siri to announce tomorrow’s meetings before bedtime and Siri wakes me up with my music playlist. I just love that I have more control now!! Please make the app available on Mac!! I would love to be able to do what I do on my iPhone to my laptop

Great for connecting Lambda with Shortcuts

This is the only reliable way I have found for invoking Apple Shortcuts from Alexa/Lambda. I have Automation Server running on an old iPhone 6s that wasn’t being used. Running for several weeks now with no issues. I use the api url to execute the shortcut from an Alexa Skil Lambda function. Pushcut allows the shortcuts to run without human interaction, which was one of the problems with Apple’s native “Automation”. Super easy to setup and use. Well done!

PushCut makes HomeKit automation useful in the real world

HomeKit’s automation feature is still a puzzle and somewhat limited. PushCut picks up where Apple fell short. The notification feature is really capable when combine with Shortcuts and Home App’s automations. But, the learning curve is pretty steep. PushCut should have built-in animated diagrams explaining how all this work and I can bet that if they do this, this app’s user base would easily double in no time. They really tried to incorporate the same UI language Apple uses with Shortcuts, which is very good. But, this type of “configuration” language is very limiting to the normal user who needs to do quite a lot of tests, trial and error, in order to find out the real power of being able to automate shortcuts. I only expect things to get better form here.

Use HomeKit? You need this app!

This is app is a must for next level home automation with Apple HomeKit. Take some time to research the app and its possibilities. You won’t be disappointed. In addition, the developer seems to be a wonderful person who really cares about about your home automation needs. You won’t be disappointed.

Fills a currently missing Shortcuts capability for me

Time and location based triggering has been one of the biggest frustrations I’ve had when using Shortcuts. Having a great automated work flow is fantastic but what I need is those things to happen without me thinking about it more than anything else.Pushcut helps to fill that hole for me by giving me time and location based triggers (extra points for being able to combine them). This need for me has been strong enough that I paid for the Prod subscription even knowing that there are some of these capabilities coming in the iOS 13 updates. I expect the developer will continue to offer capabilities in this app going forward that enable advanced usability even after the new Shortcuts capabilities are added. Third-party developers have always been a step ahead when it comes to iOS automation and pushing the bounds and I’m happy to be able to support such a useful tool to keep those boundaries being pushed.

Background triggers require dedicated device

Location-based background triggers only work if you have a dedicated iOS device to run as a server. $18/yr for premium would be fine, but that requirement is expensive and feels unnecessary: why does my phone need to connect to another device to run a shortcut that will toggle alarms (as in my phone clock, not security) off or on based on location?---Response: Unless I'm missing something, without a dedicated device, the location-based triggers only send a notification that you have to interact with in order to run the shortcut. That's the same functionality as the Shortcuts app, which makes this superfluous for my use case.

Features hidden behind IAP even after $38 Lifetime license purchase

This app has the ability to solve major issues with Siri Shortcuts and automations which is why I was willing to pay almost $40 for a lifetime license. However the main feature that most people would want/need requires an additional monthly/annual subscription on top of the lifetime license. Scheduling a one-time server execution/action for a specific date and time should not be behind an additional pay wall for people who already purchased lifetime licenses. Nearly every other “pro” feature of the lifetime license in this app is able to be accomplished by other workarounds or natively in iOS. The one problem it could actually solve, is deceptively locked behind an expensive monthly IAP. 🙄

Scam…

When you are in a hardware store, you can see the product in its full form before purchasing it. Developers, unfortunately, are far too comfortable to lock their products behind a wall so you can’t even experience it without paying. This app supposedly lets you make widgets, but except for marketing images, one has no idea how you go about making them. The product is the widget. So don’t let me put the widget on the Homescreen. But, I’d like to experience the UX behind creating it before I spend any money. Maybe the widget look nice, but are far too difficult to create.
