Does iOS 18.5 have multiple shortcuts for too many actions? How to use it?

[Nishamehta123]

In iOS 18.5, you can create complex shortcuts with many actions by chaining them together, using "If" statements for conditions, "Choose from Menu" for interactive options, and "Repeat" for iterative tasks. You can also integrate with other apps using their specific actions and variables to pass data between steps.

In iOS 18.5, use Shortcuts to chain multiple actions:
1. Open the Shortcuts app → Tap + (New Shortcut).
2. Add actions by searching or selecting from suggestions.
3. Use "Run Shortcut" to nest existing shortcuts.
4. Test & save. Works for automations too!
