> Siri plus shortcuts have made many mundane tasks easier. When I get in my car to come home from work I say "Hey Siri, heading home." That causes my phone to text my wife my arrival time and starts the last podcast I had playing.

Wait, you do what?

How can I get SIRI to do this for me? Can you explain how you got SIRI to do that?

Along with iOS 12, Apple released a new app called Shortcuts. It is not preinstalled as far as I know. I think they got it via acquisition. There’s a bunch of new hooks that app makers can/must use to integrate with it, so not everything is supported.

It’s basically IFTTT for iOS, and you can assign phrases in Siri to it.
