How to use Shortcuts to automate tasks on iPad

The Shortcuts app lets you automate tasks you do often with just a tap or by asking Siri. You can create shortcuts to get directions to the next event in your Calendar, move text from one app to another, and more.

There are ready-made shortcuts in the Gallery. Or you can build your own with different apps, and it’ll run multiple steps in a task for you.
