i need to set up a shortcut where i want to get a text sent to a recipient when i arrive to a location if i left another specific location (for example, when i arrive home from grandpa's, to get a shortcut letting him know I made it safe)
iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16
Unfortunately the Shortcuts app on iOS does not support condition-based location triggers. This means you can’t set an automation to trigger only when you arrive at home from a specific location like your grandpa’s house. The automation will trigger whenever you arrive at the set location, regardless of your prior location.
That really sucks
thank you
When you run an automation in the Shortcuts app on your iPhone, it may require approval from the user before it can be executed. This is a security feature that is designed to prevent unauthorized access to your device or sensitive data.
In particular, when an automation involves accessing or modifying sensitive data, such as your contacts, location, or camera, health data, Home App the Shortcuts app will prompt you for approval before allowing the automation to proceed. This helps to ensure that you are aware of what the automation is doing and have the opportunity to approve or deny access to your data.
Additionally, if an automation is triggered by a shortcut that has the "Ask Before Running" option enabled, you will be prompted to confirm that you want to run the automation before it is executed. This can help prevent accidental or unintended actions from being performed by the automation.
Overall, the approval process for running an automation is an important security feature that helps to ensure that your data and device are protected from unauthorized access or misuse.
Im inquiring about applying a complex shortcut and its execution, not security features or keeping my phone safe but thank you for your input.
