The iOS 18.4 developer beta gives Shortcuts much more to do.
9to5Mac spotted that iOS Shortcuts in today’s beta release now offers actions to change settings in iOS apps, including Safari, Maps, and Voice Memos. The outlet guesses it’s in preparation for Apple’s coming Siri upgrade that lets it perform tasks for you, both in and across apps.
New options include turning on “Avoid Hills” for Apple Maps cycling directions or setting the recording quality of Voice Memos.
