iOS 27 is packed with new Apple Intelligence features, with Siri AI chief among them. But the Shortcuts app offers another standout AI upgrade in iOS 27 thanks to a new ‘describe a shortcut’ feature.
iOS 27 lets you describe the shortcut you want, and the Shortcuts app automatically builds it
I’ve always appreciated Apple’s Shortcuts app, but I’ll readily admit that I’m not among the app’s power users.
I can build basic shortcuts on my own, thanks largely to the work of Federico Viticci, and use the app daily for a few simple automations. But the vast majority of Shortcuts’ power is beyond my skillset.
iOS 27 has a major new feature that could change that, however. Now, thanks to Apple Intelligence, the way you build a shortcut is fundamentally easier and more accessible than ever.
